    I'm going with respect, too. And not just respect for you - respect for others. I think seeing the way a person interacts with other people is a good indicator of their values. But sense of humor is a close second for me. I can't imagine being with someone who is serious all the time and can't goof off and have fun.

    I agree with this hole heartedly...

    on that note, I'm not sure tha tI have one thing that singles out a person for me :)

    Hey! I concur with all of you guys! Only if the other party possesses this too. Good thing I am all of these. Oh and I'm single. How about that? Hrmmmm.... Fail...

    I'm greedy. I wanted the total package!

    Sense of humor was huge, but a certain sense of self... confidence without arrogance. Being completely comfortable with who he is, without thinking he's perfect or god's gift. Pretty much an attitude of, "This is who I am, and I'm happy with who I am, and if you're the right person for me, you'll be happy with it, too."

    Being genuine. I think that's it in one word. No pretending to be something he's not to impress me. No games. No facade. Just being genuine.

    Effective communication skills. If two people can talk well together, they can overcome any problem or difference.

    Definitely sense of humor. I'm engaged now, but I used to always say- if a guy can make me laugh, I'll probably make-out with him...
    So you would make out with Louie Anderson? LOL

    Given my sense of humor, being smother by a pillow gives me night sweats.

    Maturity
    Thats why my boyfriend is 10 years older than me. He already went through the drinking and partying stage...now his focus is family. I <3 him

    Oh and it helps that he is a hot firefighter too :tongue:

    I'm the exact same way! I think the reason I didn't really date in college was because I found guys my own age immature. I've been dating my boyfriend since October and he's 7 years older than me. It works SO much better, he's past the party and figuring his life out part. It's really nice to be able to have adult conversations with him.

    Binary_Jester - You remind me so much of my boyfriend it's kinda scary. I only know it's you and not him on here because he hates computers and most technology. Except Xbox...
