It's not stupid - we tend to speak to the point round here is all. Imagine if I came in and said 'A Daddy should be over six foot two, he should be educated to PhD level, he should earn at least 70k a year, he should be able to cook. He should like to drive fast and want sex two to three times a week. He should enjoy sailing holidays and extreme sports and be an atheist.' Would you take my advice? Would you rule out a guy that you clicked with and seemed decent because he wants sex every night, is a rubbish cook and prefers going to the theatre over sailing? I'm guessing not. For the most part you want someone who is a decent human being and has the qualities you value in any type of partner. For me, I want someone who is honest, pretty level-headed, responsible with money, has a good work ethic, is a family man, doesn't drink or smoke and is kind and consistent. My husband is all of those things. He is not, however, very adventurous or ambitious, he likes a quiet life and is a bit geeky. You might hate him. You might need someone who is spontaneous and unpredictable, and you might not care about his drinking habits or work ethic. Make a list of qualities that the perfect man would have. Then divide them up into things you must have, and things that you can do without. Then ask about those. In my opinion there isn't much that a list of questions will tell you for certain. Some things are black and white - he either has a job or he doesn't - but most people will be pretty forgiving on themselves if asked about their personal qualities. No matter how thorough your list of questions, you're unlikely to have someone say 'I'm pretty unreliable, I gossip and won't keep your secrets, I have a foul temper that will come out after we've been together for a few times, I'm a serial cheater and can't keep my hands to myself and I'm kind of a racist'. You need to observe someone and see their traits. In the spirit of trying to answer your question though, how about throwing in some hypotheticals? You have no profile so I don't know if any of these would apply but how about: -What would you do if I crashed your car? -How would you handle it if I had a really bad week and was struggling to be obedient? -What happens if I get pregnant? -Do you believe in punishments and if so what would you do if x happened? (this seems important as people have widely different views on this) -How would you help me if I got fired from my job? That said I do have a sort of first-date checklist of dealbreakers if you are with this person in the flesh. I won't tolerate anyone who is rude to waitstaff/service people, or who drives aggressively, or spends the evening bragging or bitching about an ex.
