    You used to be on my friend list, but I won't hold it against you .... haha.

    I'm very particular by nature so of course when it comes to something as serious as "marriage material" I have a list of criteria:

    1. I have to be attracted to him: mentally, physically & sexually.
    2. Intelligence. He has to be able to tell me things I don't already know... and talk about the things I do know, in depth.
    3. Athleticism. I HAVE to be with an athlete. I'm athletic and I enjoy sports, I need a guy that can compete.
    4. Personality. We have to match. He has to be able to tolerate my abrasiveness and my sillyness and he has to be able to match my wit. He can't get offended, he has to be secure & confident. He is asertive and very masculine. I don't date wimps!
    5. No kids. I don't date guys with kids. Double standard, I know, but its just me...
    6. Future Potential Growth. He can't be happy with a mediocre life, job, house, etc. I'm not the kind of person that settles and he will be miserable with me if he is.. I have to SEE his potential. He doesn't have to be a VP or a big shot, he doesn't have to be rich, but I have to see that he has the potential to use his creativity to be successful in life.
    7. Someone that will never make me compromise, settle or otherwise feel like I am getting less than what I WANT.
    8. His name is Eddie and he is my perfect boy <3
