What 5 things are most important to you when deciding to date someone?

I definitely don't date anyone I couldn't see a serious future with, so my qualifications (squeezed down to 5) are: 1. Honesty. I absolutely will not waste one more moment with another person who believes that I don't deserve to know about him, his past, and his thoughts.

If he thinks I'm so unimportant that he can keep secrets, he is not worth my time. Honesty equals respect in my book. 2.

Commitment. For me, commitment means that he is in it for the long-haul, and he wants to problem solve when something comes up. I want to know that he's serious about making us work.

3. Decency. I expect to be treated well, and I expect that the person I am with will be a decent citizen who I can actually be proud to take to formal events, introduce to my parents, etc. In my book, there is absolutely nothing to be said for the whole "bad boy" image. I'm a professional and a decent human being, and I don't want some thug with no values.

4. Similar goals. I want marriage, kids, a house, and travel.

If he doesn't want that too, we're going to just be hitting our heads against a wall. 5. Humor.

I have a quirky, sometimes dark sense of humor. If someone doesn't get that, well, either he'll be terrified or we just won't mesh. Fortunately, I have found someone with those traits.

And they all matter a great, great deal. I definitely am glad I didn't settle for less.

Distance, I prefer same or surrounding cities, she has to be honest, sensitive, accept me as I am, and support me when I'm down and she's nice to have fun with etc.

For other people, their standards on who they date and who they're going to marry are different. Others wouldn't be too serious over dates that's why they don't care that much on the type of person they are dating. Many times, just being physically attractive is okay already since they wouldn't take things seriously anyway.

I haven't been the type of person to play around and I since I was a teen, I've always liked the concept of the first and last kind of love. I know, I'm cheesy... lol We all have different requirements when it comes for the persons will be sharing our life with... for me, I'd like a guy who is: 1. Respectful (to me and to my family) 2.

Loyal (who would love me and only me ^^) 3. Understanding (someone who could accept me for being childish at times) 4. Smart (someone who can I talk with about anything in the world) 5.

Loves the things I love (like cats, pc, gadgets, gaming) There's a long list actually... but that's what popped first into my mind upon reading the question. :).

4 looks are important. 5 Is this person fun to be with? Also important, Is this person respectful and honest with me?

Physically attractive Fortunately, my wife met all those requirements!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
