the List
ok, so..
It's been rumored that everyone has a "list" of certain requirements that any person they date must meet.... So, Here I've compiled a list of the most important things to me. I'm sure it will probably be updated, learning from experience is learning of the most important kind...
Uber-important #1
You-Absolutely-Must-Not-Be-Full-Of-Yourself rule.
Especially if you're not that good looking (sorry).
Honestly now, there's nothing that's more of a turn-off than someone who thinks they know everything about everything, and can talk for literally HOURS about things that nobody in the room 1)understands or 2) really cares about.
#2
You don't have to be genius smart- but you do have to have a good head on your shoulders.
Common sense? Yes.
A college education? Yes.
You're going somewhere in life?
Yes. etc. etc. etc.
#3
Sports? Umm. yes. Go to the gym? You're amazing. I like a guy who's in shape; you don't have to be Arnold, but come on..I'M supposed to be the only one w/ the breasts here. eek.
#4
I don't ask anyone for anything.
I don't expect anything from you except honesty and being on time.
I'm not demanding, and you shouldn't be either.
I'm not controlling, and you shouldn't be either.
#5
To continue off of #4- money is irrelevant. End of story.
#6
I can be somewhat of a busybody, it's good if you are too. Not in a crazy sort of the sense, but if you're not motivated to do things like go skiing, sailing with my family, take day trips to MV, or the like, then it's just going to make things difficult.
#7
I like to give massages.
You only benefit.
#8
If you are a hunter, or like/own guns I, for one, don't.
I think it's a cruel sport.
No guns, please please please no guns.
#9
.. SHAVE! Although I love the scruffy look, it makes kisses hurt!
#10
If you fall into any of the following categories, consider me especially interested
-Hockey player
-Scandinavian
-From the UK, Ireland, Scotland, Europe in general..
-Have good teeth
#11
Lutherans need apply.
#12
I love Jewish guys. Any other denomination need apply.
#13
If you've ever hooked up with one of my friends before, let's just not bring that up.
#14
Freckles.
#15
I know it can be difficult, but if we are living in separate towns, you must be willing to come and see me half the time. I'm sick of always being the one to travel. Don't be selfish.
#16
ALSO... Uber-important!
*STD Free is the Way to Be*
Get tested. Get back to me.
#17
I like my space. Not MySpace... but My. Space.
Chances are, that I really like being with you too.
But a lot of the time I just need to be alone.
If I do, I'll always let you know.
#18
If you're a Republican, you better be ready to defend yourself.
#19
If you're anything besides a Red Sox fan, you better be ready to defend yourself.
#20
You MUST be able to understand and get along with my little brother. He has issues, those of you who know him understand this lol. He's a good kid, just a little.. um, weird. It's hard to tolerate him, but it can be done, i've done it for 15 years.
#21
I drink. Not all that much, but there are the rare occasions when I overdo it. I always hold myself responsible for my ridiculousness. You should too.
#22
When I get out of college, there's a good chance I'll be traveling a lot. I love guys who are willing and ambitious and like the idea of traveling. Word. Get out of the house.
#23
Please be unashamedly affectionate.
#24
If you like taking things apart and putting them back together, like cars, motors, anything that shows your knowledge of how things work is a major plus.
#25
Half the time, I'm way too nice to break up with a guy.
I'm stupid like that, so sometimes, I just stop talking to him.
Consider this a bad sign if I don't IM you for some time, don't be afraid to ask though, I have many friends and don't keep in touch with everyone on a consistent basis.
But, if we've gone on a few dates, and you don't hear from me.. just remember #25.
#26
I won't take you shopping and make you stand in long lines etc etc.
I'm not like that.
#27
Beeeeee yourself.
#28
Never take anything too seriously. Life can't be taken too seriously.
