nnyAnswers from the question meme (here, and still open for questions):
For the record, mum? If you're reading? This is the part where I tell you not to, 'k?
1. How well do you have to know someone before you consider them a friend?
Difficult. On livejournal, not hugely long, depending on the level of detail they include in their journals, I guess. I definitely find the LJ people I've met much much easier to talk to than RL people. RL people it will kinda depend... if I've met them through someone else, I'll always mentally refer to them as that other person's friend unless they make an effort to change that. I mean, if they specifically seek me out, personally, I might consider them my friend. Maybe. I tend to take a lot longer than most other people I know.
2. If you could excise an entire genre of music from ever intruding into your life again, which one would it be?
Dance remixes. Especially if there's more than one version of the same song in the charts at the same time. Urgh. The decent exceptions to this rule are few enough and far enough between that I would happily give them up.
3. So, I know you're not a big fan of naked. Is there a particular body part that you're attached to on other people or which is more likely to be beautiful to you than the others?
I like necks. I like rolled up sleeves and good forearms, and on men I really like long fingers with prominent knuckles. (Not, like, weirdly prominent. Just noticeable. On girls I like collarbones. I like bits that make me want to lick 'em.
4. TEA VS CHOCOLATE!
Tea. Absolutely every time and without question.
5. Drawing on previous experience and so on, do you believe in love at first sight? If not, what is it that normally indicates to you that you're In Love with someone?
I don't have that much experience. I've been in love precisely once.
Um... I don't believe in love at first sight. Romeo and Juliet is not, to me, the greatest love story ever told. I think that Harriet Vane and Peter Wimsey is by far the better story. I believe that there is absolutely lust at first sight, but I don't count that as a lasting relationship criterion.
How I know I'm in love... Everything new I see, I want to show to them. I want to have their reaction to things that I think are beautiful. I give them or send them things that inspire me, and everything is slightly touched by them. Being in love is like a filter on everything; it shapes everything. It's also... I dunno. If I love someone, apparently, I will allow them to hurt me a lot more than anyone else because I won't be able to put up the usual barriers.
Um, don't like talking about that. MOVING ON.
How did you get into GO?
I have no idea. I tend to wander around fandoms, and stick when I find something worth sticking for. In Good Omens I think it was![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
bravecows, actually. What started me writing was... probably drabble memes.
If you could have anything sexually that would make it a truly incrredible experience for you, whether emotionally, or physically, what would it be?
Not the faintest clue. I genuinely don't know. I would quite like to be in control, to tie someone up and have my wicked way with them, but I'd have to find someone I'd want to do it to first.
When I think about sex, for the most part it is in a... voyeuristic way, I guess. I don't see myself as being a part of it - myself as a sexual being, as a concept, actually makes me uncomfortable. So it's not an easy question to answer.
How much do your RL friends/family know about your online habits? Is it something that is just 'there', but the details aren't really an issue, or are they pretty aware of where you like to spend time? Or something else?
My mother reads my journal. *grins* Most people know pretty much everything. If people ask me, I'll tell 'em. Often at far greater length than they want. I really didn't know this wasn't normal. XD
