The Love list.

Not looking for a relationship, but I'm glad you bumped this thread.

Maybe a list will help me over the next few months.
YSK I reserve the right to amend this from time to time.

MUST-HAVES:

Compassion
Sincerity
Decisiveness
Honesty, even if it means sacrificing a little tact
Intelligence
Must be a geek/wonk about something, even if it's something I think is lame (like the reproduction habits of spiders, or how to build a transmission)
Healthy Sex Drive (sorry, but it's true)
Gentleness - must make me feel safe
Protectiveness - see above
Butchiness - that certain je ne se quois
Likes dogs
Treats people well, this includes the waitress and the bus driver

MUST-NOTS:

Excessive Insecurity
A need to control me (I rebel; I can't help it)
Meanness
Lying
Manipulative
Paranoia
Smokers (sorry, I just don't think I can live with that again)
Chronically unemployed
Laziness

JUST ICING (because who doesn't love cake?):

Driven, goal-oriented
Might want kids
Good conversationalist (this is a must in an LDR, but icing otherwise)
Good grammar
Semi-obsessive hand-washer (it's good to have things in common)
Values education and the pursuit of knowledge
Loves museums
Will go with me to the opera
Doesn't think my girl music is lame ♪♫♪
