Describe the perfect girl or guy for you

I have zero problem whatsoever. I'm being silly, too. I didn't realize it was that hard to tell.
 
:confused:

I would never do that. She is a great person. :bolian:


Yeah, perfect, you said. Creep.

You calling me a creep and no emote...how am I to tell?

By the fact that it's so over-the-top obviously not true, and that Kestra is a sweet, wise person. And emotes turn biting sarcasm into playful teasing. When I'm playfully teasing, I use them. When I'm being sarcastically dry, I don't.

Besides, there's no reason to fight over Kestra. I've already got dibs. :evil:
 
It's the cliche: but my wife. She's completely against the type I was into when we met. At the time, I was looking for someone more reserved, emotionally reserved, intellectually focused and driven, very quiet and bookish-- basically me most of the time. My wife is smart, outgoing, very outspoken, out in front with her emotions, and there isn't a thing quiet about her. But I'll be damned if for some reason she's perfect for me.

I think that's why until you meet the right one you cannot describe them.
Adm. V' your description of your differences sounds very much like Man and me. I knew him for a few months and never saw him as a potential partner until one day ~ and I swear he sprinkled some kind of magic in my drink ~ we kissed and have been together for 6 years. No-one thought it would last as we are so different, but to slightly misquote you 'for some reason it's perfect' :)
Son comments that he's never heard me laugh so much and never seen me so happy which reassures me that it's good :techman:
 
Here's a question for everyone, after looking at all the posts who say, "We're so different--but its perfect!":

To be honest...I would say it's a good thing for the two to be different, personality-wise. In fact, I would say it's healthy--see my earlier post.

But what about you all?

Do you prefer the idea of a partner who is similar, personality-wise, to you?

Or would you rather have someone who is different in that sense--a "completer" of you, as it were?

A combo, perhaps? If so, how?
 
I really have no idea. At some point I hope I'll find a girl that likes me as well that it just...clicks with.

I know how I hopes she'd be. Outgoing, intelligent (hopefully smarter then me because I can be a real dud at times :lol: ), liberal, smile that makes me melt, and knows how to live life. Preferably atheist and accepting that while I'm not religious I am spiritual (or you know, spiritual herself). I tried being with a girl who was a devout Christian and we just clashed on so much. And most importantly can put up with me being a filmnut and into cars :lol: In short, and in reply to the above post, some who's a bit different then me but accepts me for myself.

That's what I can think about, and hope for. I used to have this sorta of "list" of physical features that I looked for in a girl. And while I still have some preferences I've come to realize that there are so many girls and women that are beautiful in such different ways. Only real sort of "limit" I have these days is to try and not fall for girls under the age of 20. I've had bad luck with young girls in the past and it's probably for the best to keep that little limit.
 
Kind-hearted, very intelligent, liberally and scientifically-minded, Atheist or Agnostic, and not too clingy. These are the only major non-negotiables. I think that anyone who is not all of these things would clash too much with my personality.

Recently I've been thinking I would like to marry a man who is married to his work. I like to have my space and my time, and a lot of it, but I also want a man who, when he is with me, is with me entirely.

Also, I find British accents quite sexy (especially Scottish, though I like them all).

*starts filling out visa forms*

okay, i'm not married to my work, but i can respect having your own time and space, but when we're together, only having eyes for you.

and i may fail on the 'very intelligent' part, but i am fairly smart. i just don't tend to apply it.

I like the 'combo' bit :lol:.

Man and I, I believe, have made each other grow. (We're in our 40's, so that in it's own right is good that we still can adapt and change, and not be 'stuck in our ways')
Man is very intelligent and has made me think more ~ however when he beats me mercilessly at board games I reserve the right to throw the pieces at him :klingon:

I would like to think that I have given him more social skills, made him more confident and ~ just happy.
Which, when you think about it, isn't that what we all want? ~ the 'Happy bit' ;)

Yes, sometimes he can be smug, sulky and tight with money, But he's Man and when I wake up to an open pair of arms and a gorgeous smile I forgive all the faults ~ for, plain and simple, I love him.

I think opposites work.

I ran into a guy that I grew up, late last year. It would have been so easy to end up with him but we are too similar.
My neighbour joined us for a drink and said 'Gosh, you get on so well, why aren't you together?'
'Because we know each other too well..."
 
I posted this in another thread, but it applies here, too. Valentine's Day was our special day, so I miss him more around this time of year. We always looked forward to Super Bowl and Daytona 500 Sundays:

I found my soulmate. He could make me laugh, cry, smile, and miss him as soon as he left the room. We could be on opposite ends of the continent, but when we spoke it was like he was right here with me. I have never been as happy as when we were a couple. He really was the other half of my soul. He brought out parts of my personality that I had not realized were there... and I was the better for it. He needed me and I needed him.

A distracted driver took him from me. He died after a long battle for his life. Half of me died that day and I still have not recovered. I wish he had lived long enough for us to be legally married. I miss you every day, Tony!:weep:

Oh 7, that's dreadfull. I'm so sorry for you.
It makes me realise that I should love and cherish Man, Son and all those dear to me more.
K'Eh, x
