    Dont know if this has ever been asked here but i thought it would make interesting reading.

    for me it has to be a sense of humor and I oviously have to be attracted to them and I also like them to be career focused and not just take any job for the sake of it.

    In order:
    Smart
    Funny
    Not as hard as she lets on.

    Someone with a bit of life experience and emotional maturity(/intelligence).

    He must have a good sense of humour and have a sweet side to him. Also,he must be adventurous in bed and confident in himself.

    Lastly,and most obviously,I need to find him sexy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 232 ✭✭lemon_of_old


    Wit, positivity, enthusiasm, and the ability to talk nonsense with me for hours. If he's a looker, sure, all the better. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    intelligence


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,333 ✭✭✭Cake Fiend

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭scojones

    The hardest thing to find: someone you can be yourself around, both your ugliest and most luminous selves.

    When your heart is burning what else can be a balm but that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    Wit, intelligence and someone who shares my passions...and I've found him *gloats* :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,561 ✭✭✭Rhyme


    Intelligence, a personality i can get on with, some semblence of a sense of humour and a good talker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,458 ✭✭✭CathyMoran


    Intelligent, kind, funny, someone who accepts me for who I am (and I for them), someone who believes in me (and me in them)...I found him years ago but am only realising how truely wonderful he is now...I love you S!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1 dob24


    curry sauce


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,067 ✭✭✭L31mr0d


    my watch!... ooh, sorry, bad taste?

    seriously though, I don't wear a watch :D and I look for a person to be the exact opposite of me, so that the things i'm crap at she's great at, and she appreciates all the things i'm good at because she isn't, also we have to have the same end goal in life, the way we get there is always open to negotiation, but its important that we are both looking in the right direction... ohh and junk in the trunk on the scale of vida guerra ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    She would definitely be quiet, smart and be a relaxed kind of person. Shed have to be a bit of a laugh too and like going out two.. maybe three mi wadis with me and my mates. It would be cool if she liked my family too, and my dog. If you dont love him I dont want to talk to you.

    I could never be with a woman who smoked, was excessively loud, drank too much, hated the things I like, or had any really bad habits like swearing and being meqn to people. Not being in a coma would be a plus as well.

    But then I'll probably end up with someone from my 'never' list', my 'ideal woman' sounds a bit boring:confused:

    It's a very long list unfortunately.
    My hormones cut that list real short from time to time though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront
