    I don’t really have a type as far as looks go (Although I do like a nice smile :smile: ). However, having ambitions in life is a must. I'm currently working on my Masters Degree and I'm constantly trying to better myself in my career. Therefore, I would have a hard time dating someone who didn’t have goals for the future.

    goals are very important to me too. im excited to work hard for a stronger well being but would feel slightly taken for granted if my SO was sitting at home with an unparallel desire for herself.

    what's your master's degree?

    It's in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in Human Resources. Yes I'm one of those people lol. :smile:

    My type would probably be someone who possesses:

    intelligence/values education
    kindness
    takes good care of themselves
    Someone I can feel comfortable being around
    It also helps that they don't mind my nerdiness, ha

    Those're some of the main things I look for.

    i agree with these too!

    I like good looking, fit women. I like women who are pleasant to be around and don't cause problems/drama. Someone who is straight forward, has emotional maturity and can communicate. Most of the women I tend to date have college degrees, but the Bachelor's degree is so watered down as compared to 30-40 years ago that it has little meaning in terms of proving intelligence and/or sophistication.

    does a piece of paper prove intelligence/sophistication?

    One of those people? By that "thos people" do you mean: intelligent, driven, focused, and well respected? if so, you're "one of those [great] people"!

    Starting to think there isn't anyone out there for me so I shouldn't be so picky :/

    Someone with perspective, meaning they are aware of the goings on of the world and history.

    Someone who puts people before money and things below both people and money.

    Someone thoughtful of others. I'm empathetic and caring and I don't want someone who is selfish or self absorbed.

    Someone with faith in a higher power.

    Someone who likes to learn and improve themselves, not just sit and become stagnant.

    Someone who can fight fair, discuss opinions and ideas without turning it into an argument and will stick up for what they believe in.

    I'm also partial to jeans and boots, carnivores and men who are taller/stronger than myself.

    sounds like you are quite partial to a strong willed faith based cowboy....?

    Smart
    Funny
    Stable
    Educated
    Tall (at least 6'0")
    Big (not uber fat - just bigger then me)
    Older than me (40s)
    Single (you'd think this was a given - but I've had my fair share of guys who define single differently than I do)
    And just a wee bit dorky.

    Not too much to ask for right? Or maybe so - which is why I am single.
    But I'm ok with that. Because I'm super awesome - and it's gonna take someone super duper awesome to change that.

    what's the difference between smart and educated?

    Physical:
    I like very large boxy chest and shoulders, big hands (big enough that my small hand get lost in his when he holds it) short hair and sleepy eyes.

    Emotional:
    Very sweet and honest, I like a manly man who takes control at the spur of the moment and just turns everything around and upside down. Very frustrating and exciting at the same time.

    Mental:
    I love brilliant men, men who are willing and able to put in work and effort and get great results in all things they do.

    This describes my hubby. He is my ideal mate and best friend :love:
