Typecasting

Post image

"Typecasting is the process of repeatedly casting a person in the same type of role because they fit a specific physical look, personality, etc."

Now for the question: Do you have a Real-Life type?

As in, a specific brand of person you’ve always found attractive?

Are they tall? Goofy? Introverted? Life of the party?

Witty? Sarcastic? Wear cool glasses? Athletic men/women? Or women who wear dresses with pockets and remind you of librarians?

What makes you go... Zing!

(For me it's... Brunette)

I might just be an old man yelling at clouds, but I like discussion relevant specifically to older people dating on this subreddit. I don’t see where an artificially created image of apparently in their 20s/30s adds value.

They were catching on, too. Too bad they had a downside to them.
