Good sense of humour!! They wouldn’t like me otherwise 😂😂😂😂 xx

I'd like equal measures of all of those wiserlady, but do appreciate that I'd probably need to knit my own to find it all in one person!

Now I think every one of those attributes is essential.

Cheers, Midori

yes i agree, but it is hard to get someone who fits all of those things, and very often we aim for someone who has more to offer than us so we fail, poor people long to be with rich people, old men long to be with young women, ugly people want handsome and gorgeous people and so on

I'm quite happy solo nowadays, there's been more than enough drama in my life!

don;t blame you - and most of the men I met before I met my lovely partner were freeloaders, users and losers who wanted me to improve their lives a lot but were not able to or too lazy to make mine better and would have made mine worse

Much the same; Mine was an abuser, in all possible ways. Ended up committing suicide. Never felt comfortable getting close to another man. OK purely social, but stay at arms length, buddy!

ive met abusers who are violent, etc, but not often and as soon as I realised it that was that it was over, its different when its a freeloader who is after your money, they pretend to be nice, if you are not careful they can suck you in, but where they go wrong is to forget that you either got your money through hard work and being smart, which is what I did, so I would see through them just as I saw through bad business associates, clients etc when working, people who can make a lot of money by working are not naive, its the one who might have won it on the lottery etc who might be dumb and easily fooled. but ive noticed a lot of women seem to think men are there to lean on and want a man to take care of them no matter what, so they put up with a lot for fear of losing them, rather than standing on their own two feet and working hard and being self sufficient financially, that way they can be single and independent and have a good life too.

Honesty

Great sense of humor

Lots of common sense

Intelligence

Responsible

Loyalty

Reliability

Hard working

____________

but if i were to answer that with greater honesty (we all have some level of vanity, and shallowness) and narrow to top 5:

Honesty

Great sense of humor

looks (trim, eyes important)

Lots of common sense / Intelligence (these 2 go together)

empathy / compassion
