Chapter 6 - Cues

Unknowingly at times I have filtered people out from being potential romantic partners through a couple of different ways. Probably the first way that I disregard people is because of physical attraction. If I do not find the person to catch my eye, then I most likely will not be interested in them. Another way to filter someone from being a potential romantic partner is if the conversation does not flow. When things are not smooth in a conversation, it makes me think that we would never have anything in common.

After reading Duck’s theories I believe that most of them are valid. Like I voiced earlier, interaction cues are important to me. There have defiantly been times when I have used preinteraction cues to speak to someone. Only to find out that there is nothing to talk about. The person may have had attractable preinteraction cues, but lacked solid interaction cues.
