Give me a woman with the following qualities any day (in no particular order):
She has to be able to make me laugh, and I don't mean AT her.
She has to be able to carry on a conversation about more than three topics.
She must bathe regularly. I mention this because it has been a problem...
She has to not need me to function. Codependency blows.
She has to know things I don't.
She has to be not only honest but true. And yes there is a difference.
Whatever person she chooses to be, it must be genuine. No false pretenses. If you are a city girl, don't be telling me how you love farm life.
I won't lie. Looks matter. But that ain't all there is. Imagine being married to a Pamela Anderson. What on Earth are you going to sit and talk to this person about? When you decide to spend the rest of your life with someone, sooner or later you do indeed crawl out of bed. If there is nothing there to talk to one another about on an intelligent level, you are going to get bored. Common interests are nice. IM and I both loved racing (both Mark Martin fans in fact), some of the same rock bands, Stephen King, and other things before we met. I have since turned her on to bluegrass; she has turned me on to Creed. She still likes her few country artists; I can't stand them. I still love my James Bond movies; they bore her to tears.
Bottom line: find someone who not only attracts you, not only intrigues you, but who completes you.
