So these are the things you discover in your partner when you are together. Or are these on a list when you search for a partner...like a kind of selection?
No one ever..just likes a person anymore....or...falls in love?

integrity
humor
acceptance
understanding of my commitment to my children is the most important factor in my life

all other things can be wavered on but my sons are my life and no one pushes them aside.  I have been talking to a guy for over 2 months now hopefully weather permiting i will see him in a few weeks and if things go good then great if not then i don't know but we seem to be doing so good so far.

Since you are sitting up and breathing and reading and typing, I'm assuming that you've not had an experience with a serial killer who was trying to gut you using a fish scaling knife and tweezers either. 
 
That would be unique to anything you've experienced.

Yep...I like people, not many to any great depth though.......and I think that the reason I like them is because of the things I mentioned.


Falling in love isn't a reliable way of choosing partners, for me.......so no.

Yeah they do... Just like the fact that I absolutely LOVE chocolate chip ice cream, the reality is that it's so very bad for me that I can only have it on that rare occasion.
 
For me it would be...
 
Honesty... total and complete open honesty.
Intelligence. Since I know for a fact that I won't find someone that can lift the corner of my house.
Tenacity. Not the kind of tenacity that some people say they have because it sounds good, but the real deal, the stuff that holds a "family" together through all the tough times.
 
I'm really not that concerned about physical attraction because if they have the above then the later will happen on it's own.

Since 99% of the participants on this board and 99.99% of those on the other side all qualify, you should have no problem finding many long and meaningful relationships!  Good Answer.

They'd  have to be really great at managing money, and They'd have to have a  car, and They'd have to be super reliable in everything they said they would do.

The good with money inspires me more than any other trait, because I refuse to enter a relationship with someone ever again who can't budget and can't control his spending and is always wasting money, and so then is broke when important needs come around.

The car thing, because I don't drive,  and I probably never will and I will freely admit it's a damned good thing too, that I never get behind the wheel, and I've had bf's who don't either, and it was a big burden to try and do anything that required a car. After having a Daddy for 3 years who does drive I will never go back to the burden and hassle of one who doesn't.

Reliable in everything they say and do, is well to me self explanatory. If they are reliable, then I don't have to worry about so many other things, because they're a subset of being reliable. 

As for My Daddy now, what three traits do I admire most, Well he's hardworking committed to doing what it takes to care for his family,  and tries very hard to provide for his little family. This includes Daddy spoiling  me a lot and tries very hard to make sure I am happy, He's a very generous man, if he can do it he will. Hell sometimes he'll do something as a treat for me even when he can't afford it. I try to return the favor and spoil him and treat him right as well.

I don't know if "keeps me inspired " would be the correct term for it, but I admire that trait, because I value a man who knows good work ethics and isn't a slug or a slack off when it comes to seeing that the bulk of the needs of the family , at least money wise shelter wise and food and clothing wise are met.


He tries really hard to control his temper, and that includes how he speaks to me. I'm not always the easiest person to put up with, and I do infuriate him sometimes, and I respect a person who can control his aggression and treat people right, when they're pushing all your buttons even if they don't mean to push them.* even if he does fail once in a while I can over look the failure for all the times he HAS succeeded* His dad was VERY abusive, and cruel to them all, most especially his wife, who he at one time shoved down a flight of stairs and regularly beat as well as being an alcoholic. .

Daddy grew up with violence and abuse as his male role model, and he fights VERY hard against ever being abusive or violent.


Daddy is very forgiving. Even if I have hurt him horrendously, emotionally or psychically he's usually quick to forgive. He'll also take responsibility for his part in the fiasco, and once we talk it over, he lets it go and doesn't bring it up again. For the most part.

There was however one time he couldn't resist ribbing me about the time when I was angry that I told him I didn't have to do what he said cause I didn't accept his authority.

Ok, we all admit we aren't perfect, however, there are key elements we look for. You can only choose three in your potential "other" what are they and why do those elements inspire you more than any others?
 
If you have an O/other already--what are the three elements that you adore, why do those keep you inspired?
 
Only three can be chosen.

Yes, I keep all the things in mind that are important to me when searching out a new partner, and no I never leave it to just falling in love and hoping it works out.

If they don't have the qualities I need in a partner, then love won't ever happen, and I wouldn't pick them to be my partner.

Why would I want someone who had none of the same values I found essential.

Actually, I saw quite a few people mention integrity, including myself, as well as honesty.

Control of power - my Master desires the power I give him, and uses it with great control and finesse. Without this, he's just another boyfriend.

Trust - the underlying understanding that we both have integrity, wisdom, and self-understanding, and will also forgive when necessary.

Desire - me for him, and him for me. Goes back to compatibility and such, but god, do I desire him. All the time, no matter what else is going on.

We propably all had several partners...did the previous partners have all those qualities too?
OR are the qualities we look for..dynamic..because we learn?

I fall in love because the person has these three qualities.
 
If the person looked like THIS
Acted like THIS.
Was as incompatable as THIS.
Then I wouldn't fall in love with them.

Yes.
The reason I'm not with those partners is a lack of compatability over time.  People change, it's natural.
