Re: Traits For A Partner

I didn't have specifics in mind when I found my husband nearly 50 years ago. He's my one and only, period.

Years ago, I seemed to almost always have ex-girlfriends stalking my various BFs.

Because of that, I didn't let myself get involved with that type of lifestyle. Nice as my BFs were, I could see what my future would be like. Those ex-GFs were very aggressive. Sort of fatal attraction types.

It just wasn't worth it.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

I'd add someone who was raised with the same values as I was. I found out the hard way that a spouse who was raised by a parent that he hated, didn't have a religious upbringing, and a home where money was always an issue (total lack of it)...all of these issues can affect a person as he (or she) grows into an adult. My ex had differences like these and it had a very big impact on our marriage. I came from a very stable, middle class home with two loving parents who attended church regularly. His was the exact opposite, but he was very handsome and had a cool car. We were not a good couple - my mother was right.

Same, good sense of humor, can make me laugh, shows empathy, patient, and chivalry.

Take time every day to enjoy where you are without a need to fix it

Loves animals.

Cute didn't hurt either!

Integrity, sense of humor, kindness, intelligence, good work ethic and many of the other attributes already posted. But, to be honest looks were a factor also. I liked handsome men. Found just a man way back in 1978 at a college graduation party and have been with him ever sense.
