ah... hey at least you're not considering resorting to a love bot:)

I wouldn't be willing to move away from being near my family, I couldn't love a man enough for that. Turkey is a long way away.

I moved 700+ miles away from my family for my husband.... it would have been worth it if it'd been 7,000:) To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

Yeah but not everything works equally well for everybody. I mean some people even seem to like eating tomatoes. Yuck!

True enough... and as a tomato eater I say you don't know what you're missing...
Soooo ooh here's a ponder. Describe your "perfect" person/SO
hmm for me that'd be... NVG ( so long as this year he remembers mother's day...gigglesnort) To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

See, the problem is I'm kinda picky. For instance, I like 'em real young. Like, did you ever see Paulina in her first "Sports Illustrated" layout? That face, but with better headlights. You know how hers have kind of dimmed lately? Heidi Klums beams would do. And her teeth. Or, ooh, that Britney Spears girl. She's got great knockers. But she's a tad muscular. Uh, actually, you know what? Her ass would do, too, if she had a better grille. Like, uh, Michelle Pfeiffer back when she did "Grease 2". But she'd have to be a little smilier than Michelle. Kinda like Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, before she got Stamosed. But not as skinny. Someone a little meatier, like Heidi. But without the accent. You know those accents: yah-yah-yah-yah. They really get old fast. You know what I mean. Someone like that.
Had to be done. Who can name that movie?

I certainly don't have a problem with someone else moving away for a marriage, people are different, need different things, have different experiences and that's okay. There's absolutely nothing wrong with moving for someone in my opinion, I just know that, for me, that wouldn't happen. I like tomatoes on hamburgers, sandwiches and in other things, just don't like eating them straight.
Zeke, that paragraph sounds really familiar, I must have seen the film but I don't remember what it is.

OK so really if I'm going for perfect let's see.
Smokin body (cause if we're going for perfect I mean why not). Sarcastic sense of humor. Smart to at least the point of carrying on good conversation and being able to think through things presented to them and decide if they actually agree. Such as a news story telling you something is good or bad and then being able to weigh the facts and come up with reasons you agree or disagree rather than just accepting everything you're told. Not fanatical about religion but not opposed to it either. No strong ties to any specific political party. Again I like someone who looks at the facts and makes a decision. To me supporting a specific political party is like being prejudiced. Just because someone is in a party doesn't mean they're a uniform clone of everyone else in that party. They have their own views and opinions and you should decide whether or not you agree with that individual person. I don't want someone who's racist, sexist, or prejudiced of any group of people basically. I'd like someone who enjoys watching TV and seeing movies. Someone who at least tolerates sports. Someone who considers an evening at home curled up on the couch to be a good way to spend an evening. Not a heavy drinker. Definitely not a smoker. Not into drugs. Must at least give Firefly an open and honest chance. Must have a fairly decent self esteem. She can have her insecurities but I don't want someone who can't see their own worth. I guess along with that comes a strong personality. Basically I like to give people a hard time in a poking sorta fun way. Someone who throws it right back at me is awesome IMO.
And at this point I'm annoyed with MsA. So far the girl I'm writing off passes all those tests (ok maybe not smokin hot but hot enough) as far as I know. I mean she could be racist and just hides it well or something. I guess maybe the quiet night at home might not apply. Though she did say as a kid she loved pulling out the sofa bed and just spending a day on it watching tv with her mom. Damn you MsA.
I guess I have to add willing to settle down. I'm not big on change and moving every year or two is not going to cut it for me. I'm also a picky eater. Someone would likely have to put up with me on that one. I'm not completely stubborn about it. I went to a freaking indian food place last weekend, but at the same time I wasn't happy about it. I guess they also have to have fairly standard family values. 1 partner. Together for life. Kids are optional with me. I wouldn't be opposed but I wouldn't be upset to not have any. I guess I wouldn't want more than like 3 max. 2 is better. I'm not big into traveling. It's something I'd be willing to put up with in small doses but I don't think I'd be able to deal with a year abroad or something. Also I'm probably fairly boring. I like getting into a nice comfortable routine. So, she'd have to be ok with that. She'd have to be responsible with money or at least willing to follow a budget.
I'm just going to stop there. So, are those crazy things to look for? I wouldn't necessarily call any specific one a deal breaker if everything else fell into place, but I don't know. I'm a pretty picky person so I wouldn't be surprised if I dropped somebody cause they didn't fit that mold pretty closely.

Apart from the smokin hot.. I think it's a very reasonable list. I think you'll never find those things in a smokin hot package because anyone who is willing to put the time and effort in needed to look smokin hot is not likely to be all that steady , stable, or interested in settling down... if you scale down to hot I think that list works well
( also giggling quietly over the whole see I told you you might want to give the girl a chance. Maybe she'd be a homebody if she got serious...) To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

Well sure if I didn't need to make money to survive I could see it. I need a job and a career is the best way to go. I can't just throw that to the wind just to find out if we're compatible. It's too much to ask IMO. So, she's still off the list...until I win the lottery.
