What do you look for in a romantic partner?

A really good mouth, initially.

I look at the way they move their mouth when they talk. Lips, tongue, teeth. The way they drink from their glass. Smiles and other expressions that don't have names. I gravitate toward the mouth, always.

Beyond that there isn't much rhyme or reason to it. I wouldn't say I go out with intentions of looking for a romantic partner. There's chemical reactions and what have you. I don't quite know how to explain it. Typically, I know in the first five minutes of meeting someone if I'd ever consider sleeping with them. But then romance can be something non-sexual. (Not that I would know a awful lot about that. I refuse to apologize for enjoying sex.)

Ultimately what I look for in a romantic partner directly relates to initial physical attraction. I don't date anyone just because they're pretty but that's the hook, so to speak.

I wonder how many of you would call me shallow instead of honest.
