- What do you look for in a significant other? Smart guy, preferably with brown hair and blue eyes, that shares my values and likes me back.
- Do they HAVE to be "Mr/Mrs Righ" or will "good enough" do? They have to be Mr Right, otherwise we are wasting each other's time.
- Do you just sometimes need to be with SOMEONE (anyone?) No, at least I don't believe so.
- Do you have 'friends with benefits' and if so, how do you determine who you'll do this with and how does this relationship play out? I do not and do not anticipate doing so.
- Are you a traditional 1 person at a time monogamous type or do you play the field or have ambiguous relationships or else nontraditional arrangements with people? I'm highly traditional.
- How to decide when to step it up from casual dating to something else? I've never been one to date casually.
- Are you a tease? A flirt? Do you flirt with intent or just for fun? I try only to flirt with intent.
- How do you get out of relationships? Get dumped?
- Are you usually calling the shots? I like an equal partnership.
- Can you tell when you first meet someone that they are Dating/Long Term/ Fun material? I think so.
- Do you ask people out or make it clear that you want to be asked out or are you very sly about it or does being asked out catch you off guard? I try to make it clear that I want to be asked out.
- Even if you two had great chemistry, are there any deal-breakers? Yes, quite a few. I'm into sustainability.
To qualify my answers, I'm religious and personally morally conservative. I married at twenty-one and have been married for fifteen years, so I wasn't really in the dating scene for long and even that was quite awhile ago. I only dated two guys. By the end of my first conversation with my husband I believed him to be "The One" and from that point on, I proceeded with that in mind, keeping an eye out for deal-breakers. None appeared that did not resolve themselves in pretty short order, so we got married. I still think he's The One.
