My Ideal Person:
I think I'm going to take a few points from the book
"Finding the Love of Your Life". I love the part
where he says to expect conflict. What's important is
that if your feelings are hurt, it doesn't matter that
it makes sense. If it is a great relationship, your mate will respect your feelings, and let you (hopefully calmly and with no "you" statements) express what is wrong, and honestly make an effort to rectify things. I believe if this is the foundation
of a relationship, conflicts will actually make the
relationship stronger.

With that out of the way (I'm pretty sure God gave me the words to say in the first paragraph), I stay physically active, and would be happiest with someone I could work out with. If someone tells me they can beat 56:34 in a 10K run, then my testosterone levels just multiplied.

My ideal person would lift me to do more than I would on my own. And I had darn well better be doing the same thing for them!

I would like having that "special person" to have many
of the same interests as I do. I believe in strong
family ties, an absolute must to be spiritual (not
religious, there's a big difference), have a big heart, likes animals, and I would LOVE to learn to do
ballroom dancing with that "someone special".
