• Things I Look For

  In looking for my own Mr. Right, this is a list of what I've come up with based on current and past relationships and other guys I've only dated but neither one of us considered our dating anything more than just that. The list is also some attributes I've found based on some of my guy friends I've had throughout the years.

  This Is what I have so far.

  Physical Attributes

  • Tall - Something not too much of a problem for me. I only stand 5'1/2" if not 5'2".
  • Hair - Weird to say, I like guys with natural looking hair meaning if he's going to change it's color, nothing funky. Must be a natural hair color. I also seem to be a bit weirded out if his hair is longr than mine. We are not Sharon and Ozzie who should be the only exception to a rule like that.
  • Smile - I like it when a guy smiles often. I've only dated/been in a relationship with 1 guy who pretty much refused to smile unless he was making a joke which were never funny.
  • Eyes - I don't have a preference in eye color.
  • Race/Ethnicity/Religion - Againg, no preference. Just as long as he can acept me as me and my views in life.

  Personality

  • A Gentalman - So many things have gone wrong with the last 2 guys I was in a relationship with (one of which I'm currently "with") who claimed to be one. Yes there's the typical paying for the meal, holding the door (which neither one has done), etc. But one of the biggest flaw of these two had was talking about, wanting and begging for sex and anything sex related within the first 2 weeks of the relationship or less. (One guy I know even mentioned it on the first date. Yeah, good-bye...I hope the door slams on you...) I like the type of gentleman who wouldn't even bringing it up in the first month because that's still the "get to know" phase for me.
  • Humor - I like guys who can be funny without sounding stupid, perverted or racist. I've dated one guy who claimed to like Asians but talked only about Japanese girls and doesn't know shit about the country's culture and joked about AIDS saying "AIDS came from the Philippines" idiotically thought I, a Filippino, would have found it funny. Another guy, when we were watching the movie "College" joked, asking me "Wasn't that what you did in college?" referring to girls who were drunk, very provocative and premiscuos, something I'm totally not. I hardly drink at all and I'm definitely not premiscuos.
  • Intellegent - I like guys who I can talk to about almost anything without being afraid to talk about various topics. I haven't been lucky with this considering the guy I'm with (something that's questionable af of late) I can't talk to about anything without him saying "Well that's stupid" or "You're wrong", etc.
  • Loving - And that means also if I want to say something about myself and he's watching an episode of House on one of his dvds, he'll pause it and let me talk. Because what's more important, learning about your SO or watching a rerun or a new episode you can later watch online about what snarky comments House gives in that hour?
  • Patience - I have little patience with guys who aren't patient with me. If they want me to be patient with them, they should be the same with me. Easy as that. Don't push me to do something I don't want to do at the moment or am not comfortable with. That would only lead me to be spiteful towards you.

   

  My list will be updated as I find more things I'm looking for in a guy.
