What is the most important quality in a partner? Is it a great sexual partner? Is it someone who can bring home a nice paycheck? Or is it something else?
Love.
That's the most important thing to me.
Love is important, but love goes away without something more, don't you think?
I think love is the solid foundation everything else is built on.
Once you have love, the other things fall into place.
Paycheck? NEVER! Looking for someone who shows empathy, who has compassion and passion. Many other things, but this is a big one.
You are a good man, and you deserve to find the right guy for you. BTW I saw those beautiful Cocks (Is that the right word for those birds?) in your profile pictures. Your home looks like an animal utopia, and I would love to have a place like that one day.
Thanks so much and yes I love my chickens and cocks. LOL The best to you also.
Nothing for the past 30 years. Right now in the Andygee household we are "Me and you and a dog named Blue."
That went right over my head lol. At least Victoria got it.
Sincere, intelligent, respectful, interested, socially conscious COMMUNICATION. So I snuck in several adjectives, but the main thing is about REAL communication that is more than just frosting or artificial sweetener. I don't want someone so gorgeous that I feel like a troll next to him, but if Chris Pine suddenly decided he was gay just for me, I might reconsider. lol
I like "snuck"
Compatibility. True compatibility weeds out infidelity and all other nonsense.
I don't disagree with you. Compatibility is vital to the success of any relationship. However, is it your opinion that any differences between a couple necessarily a bad thing?
Compatibility does not mean similarity. I don't like dealing with people like me. My boss tried pushing me and a coworker together and it blew my boss's mind when I explained that.
Sincerity.
Women seem to be wat too two faced and always seem to hold out for the next best guy.
If you feel like you're being left behind for the next best guy, my advice, for what it's worth is spend more time selecting a woman based more on how compatible she is, and less on is she beautiful enough on the outside to impress my friends. If you're already doing that, then the last tidbit of advice would be, try to listen to her and when she needs space give her space and when she needs attention give her attention. If she's the right one for you, she'll be doing the same for you.
That was sound advice for this lad, took me a few years to learn those things, too, many men forget that women are far superior communicators than men, the art listening is a big part of that.
really a connection, so i'm not bored when i'm not doing the sexual stuff.
Are you looking for that connections only in a shared sexual contexts or just general overall attachment to mutual interests?
Someone that likes to laugh, is curious, and independent.
I'm curious. What is your most successful way of making a girl laugh? I make silly faces and sometimes make inappropriate sounds to get a cheap laugh.
I'm single, so apparently I'm not that successful.
Silly faces? No, @ProudHeathen
iIntelligence is the most important to me, I have no patience for stupid.
LMAO- Stupid is annoying. Uneducated I can work with, but self-inflicted stupidity is annoying.
I agree, Intelligence is no dependant on education but, intelligent people often seek higher levels of it.
No drama. I want someone who would mesh well, and would never argue over nonsense. Good conversation/intelligence is a close second, if not as important.
Moral intelligence!
I liked that answer, so I want to ask you a follow-up question partly unrelated to this topic.
Can someone you loved, cheat on you and before you find out, he owned up to having cheated, showing real remorse, could you forgive and forget or does that end a relationship for you?
The ability to have an intelligent conversation. To be honest with themselves and me.
Communication and connection. Its that simple.
I will say communication as well. Some say friendship which I agree with also. However, the thing about a friend is that they are someone you talk to about nearly every thing. Im always so relieved ???? when I meet a woman that talks. Who knows what she wants instead of always telling me "what ever you want." "Where ever you want to go." "What ever you see." I took a lady to a play. I told the name of the play prior to. I could tell she wasn't enjoy. After, she told me she like that kind of musical. Communication is so important. I don't think any thing can happen with out it
Any relationship must be based in friendship and friendship must be based in honesty and kindness. So, I look for friendship first because all things grow from that.
Trust, I left my last relationship because of trust.
I think truth is the most important thing with a celebrated helping of honesty. I'm not quite sure compatability is everything. We can't all be into the same thing.
