High standards? Definitely.
My Next Boyfriend…

--will not have a fixation with his ex.
--will not be married, engaged, taken, or otherwise unavailable.

--will not ask me for dirty pictures.
--will contribute to having open lines of communication, and will communicate as an adult.
--will know how to forgive and how to apologize.
--will have a regular sized temper than does not super-size itself randomly.
--will have reasonable goals and dreams.
--will not make me feel dumb or childish.
--will not need to spend every waking second with me, and will not be jealous when I see my friends.
