Trying to find your soul-mate can be quite a chore, but all the ladies out there will be happy to know that there’s a checklist that can make the search that much easier.
The Huffington Post put together the 10-point list which covers everything you’ll need from your future significant other, so pay attention and read on:
1. He has a sense of humor. Of all the characteristics that are essential for getting through life successfully, a sense of humor has to be in the top ten.
2. He cares about what you think. A date who asks for and listens to your opinions and feelings, and better yet, who remembers what you say and builds on it later, and who responds with empathy, sincerity and caring, is someone you can communicate with and therefore, more likely to be able to form a partnership with you.
3. He has an opinion, too. A truly good conversationalist not only listens to your words and responds, but also has ideas and opinions. Your date should not hesitate to disagree with you or to bring up new topics.
4. He can work things out with you. Recent research shows that the single most important quality that determines whether a relationship can succeed is how well the couple solves problems. If you have a disagreement while dating, welcome it as an opportunity to see how well the two of work it out together.
5. He accepts who you are. You and your date are unique, special and individual and need to be able to understand each other and accept that you’ll perceive things very differently. Even when you and your date see things differently, you should be able to agree to disagree.
6. He is open. The whole point of dating, as we said before, is to get to know each other. While you both may want to take a little time before disclosing too much, your date should be comfortable talking about him or herself, and it should not be like pulling teeth to find out what you need to know.
7. He has a life with a job, friends, family relationships and interests. A date who has a full, interesting life you would want to be a part of is more likely to be a healthy, balanced person.
