This is a pretty broad question but I'll give it a go...

Do you guys have some common traits you look for in the opposite sex? Is there something that someone has to have in order for you to pursue anything serious with them? This is a hard one I know because most people will always say "I'll know it when I see/find it." I was just curious how seriously people still take dating. I know listening/forming sentences is a big one for me. What about ya?

Cursing. If they curse a lot I tend to walk away.

As long as their arms don't touch the ground
when they walk, I am good.
Otherwise as long as they do not pretend to
be who they are not, I would hang in there.


Oh boy.
What if it is caused by swampy guacamole?

Yes, profanity is a HUGE turn-off for me. A deal-breaker. By that, I mean someone who has the gall to use it towards me in the early stages of getting to know one another. That is a total no-no.

Patience is a trait I find very admirable in a person of the opposite sex.
Some other ones include: humbleness, being a good listener, intelligence, and having a sense of humor.
It also helps if he's honest.

I guess maturity and the ability to hold a meaningful discussion are my interests. Is physical attributes a factor? I dont really know.

Intelligent...I tend not to get along so well with stupid people and often question how, in this age, I came to meet someone stupid.

Direction is nice too, someone who has goals and are pursuing them...Good goals though, not the shab s*** I have such as surviving another year (Although, it can be argued that in itself, it is quite a goal to have).

beard.

They would of never had that opportunity because the cursing would show its ugly face.

If the person is carrying a badge and a gun, then I run the other way.

I tend to be attracted to creative people. And I am a sucker for a nice butt and pretty smile.

Mine is simple. Use English, spell correctly, use intelligent grammar and tense. Punctuate properly. By writing correctly you tend to look intelligent in the eye of the beholder, and someone I wish to impress. Word plays are fun but only if I'm assured that you know the difference.

One thing I tend to hope isn't there is shyness. I prefer a guy who is confident. The shy guys don't do it for me.

On a site like this, I will definitely agree. It's tough to take someone seriously if they cannot type full words and sentences like adults. Also, if I constantly have to try to figure out what they are trying to type, I will lose patience and give up.

I need someone playful. Someone that shares my sense of humor. I know that doesn't come through in most of my posts, but I really do have a silly, playful side that needs to be indulged.

If she can make a decent sandwich, it's all good.

then they miss out on some great sex...

Someone who is genuine and easy going. Im interested in good conversation but someone who would look down on me for spelling, or someone who thinks they are smarter than others would be a major turnoff to me.

When i become God,Then and only then i have the Right to"JUDGE"anyone on here for their spelling,Formation of sentence,Looks,Color,Nationality,or anything!Untill then i am another Human looking for a mate,better half,WOMAN,that will relate with me to enjoy whatever LIFE we provide for each other.By judging other people only makes me a bigot,selfcentered snob and i loose all Life has to offer me.If you view, i respond.You may not be right for me but how will i ever know if i am not willing to TRY?So many here loose what the fun of Dating-Good or Bad is all about.If you don't make a connection you may make a good Friend.Or is that a thing of the Past also?

I prefer a man that is confident and caring. One who is not full of Pride. Intelligent and has a bit of Class.
