1) Is his own person. Doesn't need me 24/7. Can respect that I like to have my time too. Has friends he likes to hang out with.
2) Has a great sense of humor. Has to be able to make me laugh. Has to understand that even if I'm not laughing on the outside, I'm laughing on the inside.
3) Motivated - Has to be motivated to do things with his life. He doesn't have to know what he wants to do, just that he wants to do something, and pursue options, not just dreaming.
4) Has his own opinions, doesn't try to enforce them on me. Respects that I have my own opinions and beliefs. Accepts me for who I am, including my religion. He doesn't have to share it.
5) Communication - has to be able to communicate with me. I don't like hearing "I don't know" when I ask him questions like what to do for dinner, what's wrong, ect. He needs to be able to share with me and talk. I'm a talker - I'll let you know all about my day, so please listen. Don't pretend to listen or read a book and only hear part of it. I will want your undivided attention at times. I'll give you mine.
6) Romantic - I don't expect flowers every week or even every month, but just for fun every now and then is great. Little things, holding the door, carrying the heavy stuff, planning dinner, taking a walk at sunset, just being spontaneous.
7) Brightens my day. Just hearing his voice or getting an email makes me warm and fuzzy inside. I want to be so excited to see him that I can't wait for work to end.
Loves me as much as I love him, without restrictions.
8) No cheating. I respect and love him, I expect the same. Looking isn't cheating. Body parts coming in contact with someone else's regardless of whose is cheating. I won't tolerate it.
9) Wants me with a passion like the fire of a thousand suns. Sex drive to match mine, openmindedness in the bedroom, please.
10) Kind, gentle, caring, patient, loves books, knowledge, doing new things, classy dresser, doesn't do illegal drugs, is open to children.
Okay, so the last one has more than one. I tried to squeeze a few more in. Obviously people change, I will too, any single one of these isn't a deal breaker but he needs to have most of them.
