Do we unknowingly seek out people with similar traits?

Gene pools do work together in co-operation against competition w. other gene pools while competing internally, so w. in families yes.  Mating wise we seek out characteristics that will compliment our own genes, often opposites.

yes, why would you try to be something your not, you would then attract the wrong person. If you  be yourself you will find that person that is attracted to YOU.

Extemly, it is unavoidable. hey lets face it, people from similar backrounds occasionally exhibit similar traits.

No..that's like asking if anyone who you went to school with shared the same last name as you if they were related to you. It's just coincidence

well, make friends, know them, understand them. There is never a guarantee that the person u are seeking as partner will turn out to be like the partner you want. But you always must try.

of course... people find out who they really are from interaction with friends. No interaction, no feedback. We tend to act as what people say about us.

Of Course.  For example, you can prefer to date certain people, but still be friends with people you wouldn't date.  Attraction is an exception, b/c we are not all attracted to the same thing.  \n\nPreference and prejudice are similar but at the same time very different.  Preferring one thing does not completely close the door to the other.  When one totally closes the door and writes someone off without knowledge or history that is prejudice, b/c no chance was given.  But with history and knowledge comes preference.\n\nWhat one must be careful with is drawing preference from the experiences of others, not that it can't be done, but that will lead to stereotypes and unjust assumptions.

Online like Craig's List or Match.com are the obvious ones....but try asking ALL your friends if they know someone, and their friends too.  If you have friends dating, ask them to ask their significant others if THEY have friends.  People will know what you are like, and try to come up with someone like you that way.

not all of them do, just the ones you meet which happens to be all of them. try a different approach to them you might be surprised

they may have difficulty finding others that accept them for who they are.

it would be difficult to judge solely from physical characteristics. \n\ntry researching your genealogy (your family tree).

You could find good and caring people anywhere, actually. It's just hard to predict exactly where you'll meet such people, though. It's usually a surprise to me when someone is caring, because I never expect it.

I think we all have a small pool of very compatable partners.  Most people don't wait for someone very compatable, though.

I'd say it might be easier.  You have that unknown connection and would probably be quite similar in your likes and dislikes.  That's really tricky.  But yeah, I'd say very easy!

quite possibly, if all I knew of someone was their on-line personality, and even if I have an accurate picture of them, it doesn't mean that upon meeting in person that I will feel the chemistry I am looking for in someone I want to date.  Often in person it just isn't there.
