| Knowing Honesty = Taking Time
I will send or respond to an email based on profile, pic, things in common etc as this would indicate a possibility of mutual interest, but I will not believe that person honest until enough time has gone by to get to know them.
That would entail not only email and phone conversations, but meeting on more than one occasion. Also, really paying attention to what is said and ACTIONS!! Lieing takes a heck of a lot of work to keep up with and soon enough, a dishonest person WILL blow it...but you HAVE to be listening and paying attention.

| Honesty..hmmm.
Some are very obvious and come across as liars (bad ones at that) right away.
But it is the more subtle ones I assume your referring to.
Yes, profiles, and watching their post does tell a lot about them. But I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, a liar will aways show their true self eventually, but it takes time to get to know that here and in person.
Myself, I am truthful to a fault sometimes. Never seen the benefit of lying.
Truthfulness grows with trust, and some may be hesitant to be honest until they know you well enough to know you wont judge them.
I think if someone feels your honest with them they in turn will be more likely to be honest with you. Of course there are just the cons out there, but that's not what I am referring to.

| I write to be polite other times I choose not too...sometimes it just boils down to how much email is sitting in my inbox....but to keep writing is because it is going well and there are some common grounds. Some are friends that i flirt with others are friends that I flirt really heavy with but truth be told we live to far. Then there is always that eliment of you never know what way the wind might blow. I am finding it difficult to not get attached. I have always been one to "Let the wind Steal My Power."
"It Rolls back to that place, Magic space all thru me and it sighs his name across the empty water....He made crazy dreamer out of me."
Why do I post?
.......it's good to be the Queen
ahhhh
to know is to love me

| I posted this on another thread, but it fits here also....
On the same subject... Honesty.
I may be wrong here, but I get the feeling that all these shadow people are hidding more than a photo. Men and women alike. I question if they are really married and just dont want their picture out there for anyone to see. Just looking for fun and games. 
It's one of the reasons I don't like to respond to shadow people. Why are they afraid to show themselves unless they are not on the up and up and have nothing to hide.
Granted, some may have other reason that excape me, but I just get an uneasy feeling about them. 
Maybe someone could enlighten me on the other reasons...
