A strange pattern in your S.O?

Sara, Rebecca, Amanda, Lea, Deanna.

Every boy I’ve been involved with has been of Scottish extraction.

Various body types and occupations. All very pale complexioned (read VERY white)with moustaches and blond/red/light brown hair.

During my teen years, I managed to date about 5 guys named Dave or David.

My SO and my ex both have pale skin, freckles, and reddish hair. Other than that, they look nothing alike, and have little in common.

She didn’t change her name to Rebecca, did she? Rebecca, my Kate Winslet lookalike, went nuts after we split up. One of three things can be extrapolated from this:

  1. The similarities are there, but these are two different people,
  2. They are, in fact, the same person, or
  3. All Kate Winslet lookalikes are nuts. :slight_smile:

As a matter of fact, I have noticed a pattern in my SOs…

A bit of background- I am nearly blind in my right eye. Lazy eye, or whatever it’s called. No biggie, I don’t even think about it anymore.

Now for the weirdness: Every girl I’ve dated for any length of time has been blind, or nearly so, in her right eye. I usually don’t find out for a while after we started going out, so it’s not like I only hit on the blind ones…

Of course, I might have better luck if I only hit on blind women… :slight_smile:

Well, I technically only had one girlfriend before I got married, all the girls I was involved with before were one-night-stands or ‘friends with benefits’.

  1. Short-haired brunette, glasses

  2. Long-haired blonde, no glasses

  3. Shoulder-length red hair, no glasses

  4. Shoulder-length red hair, glasses

  5. Long red hair, glasses

  6. Shoulder-length blond hair, glasses

  7. Short auburn hair, glasses

There are some patterns…a lot of girls who wear glasses, not too surprising if you’ve seen me. I think the number of redheads is a bit high, too…

hmm…i;ve dated a rather statistically disproportiate amount of “-anie/-any” suffixed girls. “Stefanie, Stephanie, Melanie, Tiffany.” That was all coincidence. I definitely have a thing for foreign women. Currently I’m dating a Hungarian (well, I do live here and all) and Ive dated an honest-to-goodness German and a Pole.
Curiously, about half my girlfriends have been vegetarians, and none have been smokers. I, on the other hand, am an almost-a-pack-a-day smoker and heavy meat-eater.

For some odd reason, all of the women I hit it off with have a name beginning with either “M” or “K” (or a “C” making the hard “K” sound). I don’t plan it that way, it just happens. It can be the first name, the last name, the middle name…one girl had no name beginning with those letters and I was baffled until she revealed that her Internet nic was “CelticGoddess.”
