There are different types of people. Some are tall, some are short, some are grave, some humorous, some introvert, some versatile, some prank master, some effeminate, some quarrelsome, some friendly, some serious and so and so fort. Which type you like more and why?

I like all sorts of folks. Variety is the spice of life BUT with one exception - cheaters! Which includes those who pretend to be what they are not. I can't stand falsities. I can 'feel' when people are faking something online just like some do offline when they shake hands with you after saying how really pleased they are to meet you and all that. Then they give you a floppy hand to shake So as long as a person is real and not faking, I'm fine!

Yes, those are the nasty sort of people. Most people try to avoid. And surely variety is the spice of life. We need variety for sure.

I like a person with a sense of humor. If someone can make me laugh I immediately like them. I think there's not enough laughter in the world and it's the most pleasurable thing in life.

I like they shy and silent type. I avoid people who are too loud for their own good. The silent type are the ones who listen first and comment later.

I am most partial to people who are genuine. It doesn't matter to me how a person is proportioned physicaly. Humor is a good quality as long as a person knows when to be seriouss. I find quarrelsome people difficult to take and do my best to avoid or at least limit my contact with them.

to like someone, i never look through the parameters of physical features. for me the person's height, weight or complexion don't qualify much. i look for some sense of humour in people with whom i interact to. this is because, i love to be humorous at times and i expect people to understand my humour and not take it offendingly. i am a reserved person so i like to be in the company of those who are a little reserved. this makes me feel comfortable. with too much of extroverted kind of people i feel a bit out of place. otherwise, those who are freindly, sincere, vesatile, and understanding come into my good books very easily. effeminate is a very good quality to look for in a person... but too much of it causes a little suspicion in my mind about the authenticity of the person. may be because people around us are very cunning and always ready with knife to stab on the backs.

well, when i used the word 'effeminate' i meant- a person who is characterised by excessive softness.

wow ! what a combination as I had predicted. I too go to enter in your good book in this sense. Thanks a lot. Oh yes "effeminate" is rather a derogatory term for men. If one is so he is more inclined towards feminine gender.

I am not sure but, it fairly depends if I could get along with them quite well enough. For one thing I am a tall person but, I have a lot of friends who are shorter than me. Sometimes I could be grave, other times, humorous. I am actually an introvert as well as versatile when it comes to different situations. I really don't like to do pranks anymore but, I use to do that when I was still in high school. Everyone could be effeminate sometimes but in different degrees. I could consider myself effeminate when I often want our house to be tidy all the time. I tend to be quarrelsome on right situations and mostly, argue for those who are timid and quiet about their complaints. I try to be friendly but, some people don't think of me like that on first impressions since they all think of me as someone serious which, I'm not at all (^_^") Well, point is, anyone could have those different types in different degress so, if we'd only consider one dominant type from each person, we're only limiting ourselves to one aspect of that person and not his or her entire identity.

I don't care what the person looks like.I am drawn to a good sense of humour,friendliness and a warm nature. I genuinely like people who are warm and affectionate. Tall or short is irrelevant and so is effeminate or not. I like the good, positive energy that emanates from some people.

I like people in general. I think they all have something great to offer in their own way. I do tend to avoid negative people more but don't exclude them by any means. I think there is a little bit of all thise you mentioned in us all.

I agree they shouldn't prevail. I do however think that by being exposed to an extent,we become more savy and stronger. If there were only one bad person in the world..he would be taking advantage of everyone.

Hi Jan! more or less all have this or that role to play as long as we are part of the society but the negative aspects should not be let prevail. What say?

Next, whatever , you have described, follows 'Natural formule' of 'differenet in nature. So we call it, Live as per His will and pleasure. Even if medicines are bitter in taste, it is to be taken.

Hello my friend Rajib...I just came on mylot and this was the first question I saw. I think there needs to be all different types of people for the world to work as a whole. It would be boring if we were all the same. I try to find the good in everybody and not judge on what type of person they are. If I had to choose, I would have to say I prefer a person who is very kind, honest, caring and has a great sense of humour and some intelligence. IS that asking for too much?...You know...someone like myself!

Hi Sandi! nice to have you back again after a pause. Yes we need variety or else it would be boring one. And you are right one of your stature would be better at least for me.

I am pretty laid back. I don't mind anyone really unless they are mean to me. Then, I avoid those types of people. Of course, sometimes you cannot avoid mean people and you just have to smile. It's funny though when people describe me because I always see myself as introverted sort of person, but people think I'm really outgoing, confident, etc. And yet, I'd rather stay in at home then go out lol. Great topic Krajibg. Anora

Hi Rajib...you seem to often change your avatar and in each photo you tend to look different, but if i see it in a big picture, you are the same I would like to have all the types, so there could be room for all kinds of emotions in life, if i have the type that i like the most, there would be not much fun...so, the rest of them add spice to our lives and thus, make the world beautiful....anyways, among the types you have listed, i like the humorous ones, unfortunately, my hubby is a serious person, but my friends have a good sense of humor...

I am more into the introverted. The quiet. The socially awkward. Though at times, the eccentric are amusing as well. I suppose I find both more interesting than the general well adjusted individuals I come across often.

I don't mind he or she is effeminate or strong ,ugly or beautiful ,tall or short... only weather it is easy-going is OK....I think everyone like easy going people...besides, I like talented people, but it is said these people have a strange temper, such as Einstein and so on, but I don't mind this, because I can learn much form those people, they teach us a lot, and they are helpful....

You have a full list of people around us. That is real life we have to face and live. I remember a similar question about what kind of people you most hate, and here is what kind of people you more like. To be frank, I do not have a ready answer, my approach is to do my part in the best balance, so that everybody can fully put into full play his advantage. Let's accommodate each other to make our life and work relatively easier.

it is true that the best attitude that we can have in life is the live and let live kind. we all deserve a place of our own in this planet where we can develop our personality. this world will never be as exciting and worth living if the existence of these various types of people are not around. it just so happens that it cannot be denied that most of us have preferences on the type of persons to be with, to go out with and to hang out with. these are the ones which make us comfortable. their company is what we desire most against everyone else. for me, i will always prefer to be with the sensible ones. i need their profound thoughts on issues and everything else. however, the happy ones, joker types, are always fun to be with. when i feel that i need some laughter in my life, i can surely count on them to provide me the venue for the burst of laughter that i need to carry out in the company of good friends.

Well it doesn't depend on the type of people. It depends on our thinking. You should not remember your friend on the basis of physic or behavior, you should remember them on the basis of his name and friendliness. Though being a part of this discussion I like mostly friendly people.
