Rethinking what I said. You shouln't compromise on what it takes to make you happy, because then you won't be truly happy. I've done that too many times, and ended up compromising too much.

Well, we're quite a bit different in motivation. You give the impression that you're looking for something, whereas I'm satisfied with where I am. Compromising is going to be a more natural reaction in your case than in mine. You want change; I don't.

As for my list, I think it may be easier for me to know specifically what I want because I don't actually 'want' anything. What I wrote is essentially a laundry list of the characteristics it would take to get me to change my mind about the viability of a relationship. The reality (and irony) is that even if I did find somebody who fit that list, I wouldn't match what she's looking for.

The only thing I require is that she be able to put up with my ups and downs.

Unfortunately, they always say they can, and then when times get rough, they leave at the worst point. :-|

BS. Looks are always a requirement.

You're right. I tried dating a girl once who was ugly... And there was no chemistry or spark. I kept thinking, "This would be a lot better if I didn't have to fuck her once in a while."

But I also have very strange tastes when it comes to girls. I won't say I'm not picky, or that I am, but I just have NO CLUE what I like physically.

And if a woman can put up with me and my mood swings, she's automatically gonna look better to me. I know a girl who I thought was a 6 at one point, and then after I got to know her, she actually got BETTER LOOKING.

Attractiveness is more than looks.

OH GOD is this true!

I've met some ugly girls who were VERY good-looking. I've even met a few hot girls who were about a 4 looks-wise.

But anyone who thinks you have to be tall or short, fat or skinny, old or young, have big boobs or small boobs, or have a big butt or small butt in order to be good-looking is crazy. You don't have to be ANYTHING in order for guys to find you hot. Like I say I like skinny, short small girls with little butts, but the truth be known if the right girl walked in to a place, she could be none of those and instantly make my heart melt.

But then again, I'm the type of guy who believes in love at first sight. I just believe its insanely rare.

"loving you is easy cus your beautifuuuuuuuuuul"

Infatuation.

Buddha you tard.

Yeah, but being a 10 on the inside doesn't make up for being a 5 on the inside. Trust me.

Different people find different things attractive. You're a 10 to somebody.

And it helps to stop thinking of yourself as a 5. Confidence and carriage is a lot of it. That's a process that takes time.

Nah, looks wise, I'm a solid 6.5. Personality, probably an 8.5. I'm working on the looks. Over 1/4 of the way there!

No... I believe in it.

Yeah. But I still believe in love at first sight. But, I haven't experienced it. I'm just a very "head-in-the-clouds" type of person.

You might find someone else intensely physically attractive at the same time they find you intensely physically attractive, but that's it.
