Question about Boyfriends/Girlfriends - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

JoPol_wannabe · 02-23-2003, 01:20 PM

I was just wondering what everyone looks for in a boyfriend or girlfriend?

This is what I look for:
I don't care about looks to much just so he isn't really ugly, but that doesn't matter to me as much
He must have a nice personality.
We must have a few of the same intrests perferably fishing becuase I do that alot.
I want a guy who is funny and who likes kids or atleast gets along with kids
he should be a christian or atlest believe in god.
Someone who is a good listener, talkative, likes to go out and have fun, and someone who doesn't smoke or drink. Well he can drink just so he doesn't go out and get drunk all the time.

*PinkLady* · 02-23-2003, 01:24 PM

Well...he has to be decent looking to the point where I don't want to throw up when I look at him.
He should be understanding, nice, and respectful of my feelings and interests.
We should share a couple of interests.
I don't care about religion or belief in God.
He should be genuine.
He can't smoke anything or do any drugs. I don't care about drinking so much, as long as it's in moderation.

Good looks (I'm superficial, of course I want a good looking guy).
Confidence (I love the class clowns)
Intelligence (that's a given)
Common Sense (since I have none)
Respect for everyone and everything else
Well Read (I don't want a guy who says Dr. Seuss is his favorite author)
Kind (to my family and friends)

You have just described my husband! I guess we think alike!

-good personality (not so boring that im going crazy finding something to talk about or know everything about him after one date...)
-decent looking
-Christian (i dont worry too much about this as far as casual dating, but serious relationship...yeah.)
-able to take a joke (sense of humor is good, but if he understands my half-sane sense of humor, thats better)
-intelligent
-wont cater to me too much or just blindly agree (this has been my biggest problem in the past- i want someone whos not afraid to disagree)
-some similar interests (GWTW is good...lol...but not the easiest to find, theater, history, writing, old movies in general, preferably likes cats and likes sheep- but again thats not easy to find)
-able to listen
-can get along with my friends
-not downright rude (which is harder to find that you'd think)
-can stand to be around me longer than 5 minutes

She has to be nice and pretty (but if she's just pretty and has an evil personality, then no). I don't care if she smokes or drinks (Catherine does) but NOT getting drunk. She has to be funny (@ least a little bit, funny is the least of everything). There's more but I don't feel like thinking.

Czas na Zywiec · 02-23-2003, 02:29 PM

Basically anybody who can make me laugh, relatively good looking, and at least have a bit of a mind. I don't want some braindead blonde who's completely oblivious to the world and surroundings around her and who thinks that Chile is some kind of mexican dish, not a country.

Halex · 02-23-2003, 03:06 PM

Nice personality, sense of humor, doesn't smoke or drink and has common sense.

AnaheimPMWitch · 02-23-2003, 03:29 PM

*Marilyn Monroe* · 02-23-2003, 05:26 PM

Really nice, but not too nice. (Ex, he'd yell at a waiter for messing up an order. lol)
Cute...dark hair.
Smart. That's a huge one!!!
Has my sense of humor. That might not happen, so he'll have to at least UNDERSTAND it.

Mossopp · 02-23-2003, 05:47 PM

I've come to realise that I'm quite a superficial person. I have a list a mile long of physical specifications that any girlfriend of mine must match! Of course, personality is important too but, you know, if I don't find her attractive physically then what's the point?
Stand by for a very long list

* I'd rather she weren't any taller that 5ft 6
* She must be a brunette
* her hair should be short (but not really short)
* her eyes should preferably be brown
* she shouldn't be any heavier than 115lbs
* she should be quite feminine - but not too girly
* she should have pale skin
* she shouldn't wear too much make up
* she shouldn't dress too prevocatively
* very few tattoos
* not too many piercings - ears and lip piercings are OK
* I'd rather she weren't any more than 3 years older than me (or 4 years younger cos I don't wanna go to jail!)

also.....

* she should have some sense of humour but I don't want her to be funnier than me cos I don't like being upstaged
* she should be able to form her own opinions and not just go along with what everyone else thinks
* she should be at least as intelligent as me - I don't want any dumbasses
* I don't mind if she smokes or drinks in moderation but if she takes drugs then I'm kicking her to the kerb!
* If she wants to go to clubs and stuff then that's cool but I'd like a woman who doesn't mind spending a quiet night infront of the TV every now and then
* she should be a good listener
* she'd have to be patient cos I can be difficult to get along with sometimes
* she'd have to be monogamous - I don't want anyone who's gonna be shagging around on me
* she'd have to be gay - I'm not messing with any bisexual women cos they're trouble
* she shouldn't be lazy and she should have her own job
* I don't want her to swear - it's not an attractive thing for anyone to do

Ok, I'll stop there cos this list could go on forever.
Maybe this is why I'm still single. Maybe I should lower my standards.
Do you think I'm being too picky?

brownsocks · 02-23-2003, 06:06 PM

in a girlfriend i look for the following

*i want a girl who is tall not a giant farmers daughter but about 5ft6 or so

*dark hair

*intelligent ( i don't want someone who can't carry on an intelligent conversation or well any conversation)

*nice to people(but not so nice she lets people walk all over her)

*and she can't smoke, drink, or do any drugs

fr00ti · 02-23-2003, 06:14 PM
