Let't say your partener has everything else you are looking for but not 'sense of humour'. Is it a problem not to have it? Most people like to mention it in the top 5 characters of ideal match.

Believe me men and women do need a sense of humour sometimes

I need to be with someone who can laugh and in turn be able to get me to laugh. I heard somewhere that laughter builds a bridge between two hearts when it's shared and I feel that it does for me.

I had one BF, he coldn't out jokes, but he loved hearing and laughing of those of others. So, at least this needs to be present. Someone 24/7 bad tempered is heavy. He may go somehwere else.

Oohh! I get it now. At least laugh if you can't make others laugh. I like your post.
Yes I think its critical to have a sense of humour because there will be times of pain and of joy and if you can't embrace them both for what they are......it will make life very difficult for you.
Then you have people that can laugh at others, but can't take it themselves, and the ones that are just over the top funny would probably make me wanna get a gun and NEVERMIND, then you have the ones that laugh only at "certain" humour which are no better than those that laugh at nothing.
OMG........OK I'm rambling AGAIN - ......YES you need a sense of humour, as long as its not condescending and low class.......THERE I said it.......YES
OMG without a sense of humor in the life, would just be too much for me to handle.....I want someone to laugh with me, and at me sometimes when I do silly crazy unexplainable things...and vice versa...Good Humor is mandatory...
