Ziusudra: All 5 are great but I prefer no.5 for without a foundation having little in common how long does anyone expect to last in a relationship. No.1 anyone can have but the fascination only lasts until the fun is over. Chemistry is good but I don't want to be regarded as a lab experiment waiting to erupt and spill all over the table and floor only to have some shrink wipe it up later. Compliments can be shallow at times for that only makes a relationship appear to the outside world everything is fine when perhaps it is not so peachy at times. Laughter can't hurt as long as they are laughing with you instead of at you.
hi, ziusudra
i guess the number 4 can be also define as "opposites attract" while the number 5 refers to appriciating similar likes...
i think, in the end it all boils down to being able to individuate our needs/wants and act on them...
2intrigued: I can't pin it down to just one because they're all very important in the grand scheme of things.
hi, 2intrigued
agreed...but
while ideally all of them should be there in the equal measure...in the real life it is not always so..that's why i am mostly asking for preferences...not "one or the other" kind of choice...

thanks for your comment
Hiya Lucy If any one of those choices were missing, my preference would be to stay single. One can never expect equal measures of each but a little of this and a lot of another works for me.

Hello Lucynad Lovely to meet you
In order of importance for me in a long-term relationship are: No. 1, No. 3, No. 2, No. 4 and finally, No. 5.
Without No. 1, it's not a romantic relationship but a friendship...and yes, I might be greedy in wanting it all, but I deserve it. and so does everyone else.
