What do you look for in a partner? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

What qualities do you look for in a romantic partner?

Some things I look for:

Someone who is open-minded. I can't stand being with someone who is racist or homophobic.

Someone who is kind, gentle, patient, caring, and sensitive. I can't stand selfish, arrogant, impatient, mean-spirited people.

Someone with a sense of humor and good personality.

Similar religious values.

Some interests in common.

MUST love dogs. I'm a huge dog addict and I can't be with someone who doesn't like them.

And while I'm not too picky about looks, I prefer someone with good hygeine. I find poor hygeine to be a real turn-off.

Let's see

-Must be a She. I'm 21, so no younger than 18 and no older than 25.

-She can't be a racist or homophobic.

-She has to have a sense of humor. I tend to be funny from time to time, and most people just give me a confused look. She should know I'm joking and just laugh.

-Although it's not a must, I wish she would like at least some of my favorite TV shows. (If she likes "Friends", there may be trouble)

-As for my last statement about "Friends", I mean no offense. It was a joke. Part of my sense of humor.

-She has to be caring and sweet.

-Again, not a must, but she should like my friends and family.

-She doesn't want to go out all the time. I'm fine just at home with my TV set. (I guess I could make the effort to go out for her, though)

-Although this one seems tough, I'd like her to be a virgin. I'll admit, I'm a virgin, so we still exsist.

-Someone who doesn't smoke or drink (beer).

I've never had a girlfriend before. Are any of these listings the reason why?

My List:
-Must be between the ages of 17-35. Id prefer them to be between 25-29, but beggers cant be choosers!
-Non-Smoker. Id learn to deal with it, but he'd be smoking on his own time.
-Loves animals. I dont like people who get their kicks with roadkill. Have a heart!
-Redheads. My little obsession is red hair. Love it.
-Cant be less immature than me! I like guys who joke around.. not a dumbass. I cant stand stupid frat boys chugging away. I see nothing appealing about it. I dont date losers.
-Must have $$ of their own. Im not The Bank of America, buddy!
-Dont get sappy on me. You write me a poem, odds are Im gonna laugh at it. Thats just the way I am. If you wanna buy me something, skip the flowers (seriously, you spend so much $$ on them just so they can die a few days later!), instead, get me a stuffed animal.
-Open-minded. We need to see eye to eye.

Im really not that picky!!!

Chad22 · 03-03-2003, 12:38 AM

Doesn't smoke drink or take drugs

Doesn't Swear like Crazy. I Dont mind them swearing, But not alot. I Dont swear at all.

Must be alive and Human

Someone with similar Interests to me (Happy Days, Tom Jones, Etc)...Although thats very hard to find these days

MUST be a girl

Must clean up after me, Call me sir, Get me my slippers or a glass of soda on demand. Works part time, and supports me so i can Sleep til 4 PM and watch TV.

Joking about the last one, But it sure would be nice!

dawsongirl · 03-03-2003, 12:39 AM

I'm 23, so anywhere from 18-45. Yeah, 45. At this point age is the least of my worries.

I prefer a guy who's motivated. I'm not, so at least one of us should be.

Likes kids a lot.

Sweet, kind, romantic, no weird fetishes, nice dresser.

Non-smoker, non-drug user, nothing past a social drinker. If you like to get drunk, look elsewhere!

NO POLICE RECORDS

Sense of humor

Share some similarities

Cute to me

Nice smile is always nice on a bad day

Too picky??

I'll be 22 in April and I've never had a serious relationship either.

Add "non-smoker, non-drinker, and non-drug user" to my list.
