lol, that exchange was just priceless!

anyway, for me i guess having already met my ideal spouse i'd have to say her best qualities are that she's:

a) independent and confident, she has a mind of her own and has never asked me "does my bum look big in this?"

b) intelligent, as in able to talk about anything and understand things on any level and always willing to listen and discuss opinions.

c) passsionate, not just sexually but emotionally- she's fiery, tempremental, exciting, and yet can be caring and gentle just as easily.

d) she makes me laugh! this is one of her most endearing and important qualities. i could be in the worst mood and she'll still find a way to make me laugh

1. Hates soap operas. (passionately)
2. Sends a text in correctly spelled English, even if that means running two letters into a second text.
3. Intelligent.
4. Open minded.
5. Non-religious.

Too much to ask? Must be, seeing as I'm still single...

2. Grounded and practical, but with enough imagination to see the potential in life.
3. Selfless and kind.
4. Enjoys the great outdoors.
5. Vegetarian.
6. Doesn't sweat the small stuff.
7. Non-materialistic.
8. Good conversationalist and generally interested in other people.
9. Comes from a pleasant, loving and supportive family who don't have issues with each other being happy.

Spot the CCaavin man.

If she is able to self finance, shouldn't you be able ready, willing and able to perform your domestic duties?

Ive never gone for someone for their looks. Based on looks alone you would omit a lot of people with lovely qualities.

I haven't seen you hanging around the Vegetarian and Vegan forum.

If you look like your avatar I might set that aside though.

My perfect woman.

1 .Someone who can make me laugh
2. Kind and generous
3 Doesn't get wasted every weekend
4. Someone who likes to travel
5. someone who is intelligent and has a good job
6. someone with little or no emotional baggage. (no children no crazy ex)
7. would be prepared to move to the South of France (where I work)
8. Likes animals and especially dogs though a cat is ok too I suppose

Suppose I am looking for the female equivalent of my good self.

Funnily enough the last time I went out with an Irish girl was about 5 years ago. Any Irish girls that see themselves in my list feel free to PM me.

Well, I was just describing my husband...I am not much of a sports fan, so the idea of a guy sitting down for hours to watch a football match would drive me bonkers! Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the odd match myself (especially rugby). My husband is into canooing and treaking which is great by me.

ooh the perfect man.... hmmm....

- musically talented
- optimistic
- someone who tries to find the good in any situation
- doesn't take themselves or the small things in life too seriously
- can make me laugh (especially when there's nothing to laugh about)
- intelligent
- passionate about their hobbies or beliefs or whatever
- someone who isn't a doormat but isn't aggressive either
- laidback
- intelligent and curious with a thirst to learn more
- caring
- chatty and smiley!

god that seems like a very long list... basically having a happy person like myself would be fairly wonderful!

You just described my husband (apart from the music bit) - too bad he is taken!

fonpokno

ha shame indeed! but i'm still only a child sure, loadsa time to find myself a decent lad! the music bit would just be an insane bonus in a guy, nothing is more attractive than a guy who can sing and/or play an instrument.... *drool*

Just thought of two other things coming from another thread on PI.

• Someone who accepts me for who I really am
• Someone who is a hopeful romantic

Gosh, my list is impossible, am still amazed that I found him! Every day I pinch myself when I wake up to my gorgeous man beside me - I love him for the man he is and the man he will become.

I mean if she is a good cook it would be great because im not too bad at the auld cooking either, it can be fun (and sensuous) preparing food together.

the self finance means i wouldnt like a lazy dole-head. ive always been financially independant, i wouldnt like somebody who isnt able to look after themself.

Doesnt expect me to be the little girl lost type and doesnt get mad when I want to look after myself!

JangoFett

A girl who humours me

Tells me I'm a good singer when I'm not really
Dances with me even though I'm a lousy dancer sometimes, I deliberatly dance like a jackass sometimes

I never want a girl to reach a point where she thinks its ok to say "You're a lousy singer/dancer"

Singing and dancing are just examples.

I think its true love when a girl tells you you're the best at something random because she knows it'll make you happy

Adam

As for me...

A girl...

-who can talk to me for hours, but doesn't just ramble mindlessly all day
-with good taste in music
-who appreciates the gentlemanly side to me
-who can get on well with my friends, without trying too hard
-who dnt use txt spk!
-who enjoys reading

I guess there would be more but that will do for now.

kaimera

a mother to my kids but a demon in the bedroom.

if that doesnt work out, a savage sense of humour is my number 1. Anything else is a bonus but if i dont hit it off on a L3 humour level then I cba.

/me strolls off to lolo to hit on look for girlies.

JangoFett

I think we should have some kind of boards dating thing, people who meet each other criteria meet up for drinks or dinner for the hell of it!
