We are all initially attracted to visual aspects of a potential partner, followed swiftly by a mental and/or physical connection.

If you are looking for a long-term relationship, what - after physical - attributes are important to you?

Do you know yourself well enough to know what will - and what will not - suit?

To me, being able to chat and have a laugh with said mate is vital; without that, there is no physical spark for me. I get along with most people, but I don't spark with all. Being affectionate and tactile is also high up on my list. But most importantly, is the ability to hang out with my mate without the need of additional parties, and still have the best of times.

That is a pretty good description.

I also need them to be communicative, to be loyal, and to trust me, and be trustworthy in return.

I forgot about the trustworthy bit - I kind of take that as a given, but of course, it isn't with all.

thumbs up

I do not want to play detective in my own life; that brings stress and upset where it's not needed.

Compatibility as in similar wants, needs and lifestyle. Just makes things easier.

Having fun with someone, actually wanting to talk and spend time with the other person. Oh, and a great lay helps. smitten

OK - to carry on the theme here : IF we all know what suits us, and what does not, why do women still fall for the "bad" guys, or the ones they know won't be good for them in the long run?

Is it the chase or the challenge? Are we arrogant enough to think we are special enough to capture them?

Have we become Hunters ourselves?
