It's a simple question that could have a lot of complicated answers. Tell me what you think.

Well, ideally, I'd want someone who is sincere, honest but tactful enough not to come out as rude, respectful, has a sense of humor but also knows when to take things seriously, responsibel, trustworthy, patient, and pretty intelligent but whom I can also have an interesting conversation with.

well, I want someone who is onnest to the point of bluntness and who would expect nothing less from me. I'd say someone with a good if slightly off colour sense of humour, an apreciation for music and linguistics. Also someone who is adventurous in certain areas.

Hey, my type is some one simple, smart(someone well rounded with both sports, music and academics), and friendly. Someone silent or shy but out of the ordinary when you get to know HIM. Being sweet, thoughtful, and caring is a big plus too Someone that has sense of humor, crazy and fun. But above all this I get attached to someone trust worthy, responsibe, and the same age as I am.
Looks are cool but I look at that last. Just be you and were good. I think I found him. But I lost him.

He found me and I will never have him and it's tearing us apart...

Someone who's real. Someone who's what you see is what you get and no surprises later on. <smile>

Someone who isn't afraid to communicate with you, and you can discuss almost anything with each other.

well for me someone who is not only a good listener but also good communicator loves to cuddle is very effectionate honest and can laugh

Post 12 by Manwe (The Dark Lord) on Friday, 12-Aug-2005 5:12:31

someone who you connect with. Someone who you are compatible with.

Post 13 by faithful angel (I'll have the last word, thank you!) on Friday, 12-Aug-2005 16:48:47

Then, the question becomes, What is compatibility to you?

Post 14 by Manwe (The Dark Lord) on Saturday, 13-Aug-2005 3:23:44

good question. that's hard to answer really. it shouldn't be difficult but it is. You can have similar interests with someone, similar sense of humor etc but still not have compatibility. It's about feeling I think. It's whether you can feel that connection with someone and for me that determines compatibility.

good listener but also good communicator loves to cuddle is very effectionate honest and can laugh I also like equal partnership. I hate back stabbers and two timers that is someone who is dating two girls at once that happened to me when I was in high school and I hate it.

I think my perfect mate is my husband. He is someone I can feel comfortable talking with about anything, I trust him, we have some things in common, but some different too, enough to be able to broaden both of our horizons, sweet, caring, understanding, a mind of his own; I couldn't stand a guy I could control, not that I would, we have simular dreams, and I think that is a big part...Completely different dreams could be asking for trouble.

my mate would be someone ho is smart, very outgoing, loves the intimate side of a relationship as much as i and who is a spur of the moment type but not to the point of being rude or anything.

what j said, along with trust, respect and honesty.

Someone who respects my morals and is very patient. Someone who doesn't expect me to move along quickly. I just want someone who will value our time together, and understand if I want some space. I want someone who will just cuddle and let me cry on his shoulder if I need to. Someone who isn't afraid to cry on mine either. I want someone, but he seems to not be coming my way. I'll live. Someday...

Hmmm. Let's see. I would like someone who is caring, sensitive, hard working, fun to be with, inteligent, someone who can always bring a smile to my face when I'm sad, well dressed, patient, creative, curious, musical, someone who loves to eat, loving, romantic, sweet, considerate, loyal, a good listener, muscular, (Oo! I gotta have that!) someone with a ready laugh, clean, short hair, and last but not least, someone who loves to have sex just as much as I do!!! hehehehehehehehehhe I'm not asking for too much, am I??? heheheheh Well, for now, that's all I want in a mate!!!
I might add that 95 percent of the things I wanted, I got in loverboy!!!

I pretty much agree with sexygul86, that is pretty much waht I want. Oh yeah, I want someone who has an open mind, someone who is willing to experiment, and try new things.
