Fortunately for me (perfectly fine)

Seemingly for me (doesn't sound right)

both adverbs why is ''seemingly for me'' isn't right?

Thank you.

@pumpjockey,
I'd say that it wouldn't be as common as the first one, but I don't see Seemingly for me ... as impossible, PJ.

Seemingly for me, that isn't going to happen.

@JTT,
Uh...no offense, JTT, but I think there's some misplaced punctuation in your example. I would write 'Seemingly, for me that isn't going to happen.'
