What do you look for most in a person? (friends or lovers, just people in general)

I mostly look for the ability to smile even when the going gets tough. People that ***** and moan over spilled milk irk me.

    A similar sense of humor and similar tastes. If we can't laugh together then whats the point?

    Someone who is witty with a good sense of humor. Someone who laughs and loves life.

    Humor, personality, laid-back attitude, spontaneity is nice as well but I also respect a person that makes plans, as long as they're not overkill with it.

    Dreams - Gotta Have Them. I don't want to date or hang out with someone that has ambitions of being a lump/loser for the rest of their life.

    Honesty - I'm honest, so I want someone else who will be too. Honesty cuts a lot of time-wasting BS and confusion out of the mix and is mostly beneficial, even when it hurts a little.

    Sharing - Do it. I want to hear it, it's a part of you, and I wouldn't be listening if I didn't care about you.

    Intelligence - If you can't hold a moderate to fairly in-depth conversation, you will not hold my interest or my mind for very long. Hold my mind and you Hold Me. :)

    Loyalty is big with me as well, in friends and in lovers.

    Have fun. With Me! I like it too! :D

    Attractiveness/Looks are subjective, if a person is awesome in all those other traits, they become extremely physically attractive to me regardless of their mainstream looks.

    In friends I like people who are loyal, with a similar twisted sense of humor, fun and outgoing (shy people don't tend to do well around me LOL).

    In a mate/lover, pretty much the same as I look for in friends. I have a thing for dominant men, my head tends to be turned by guys who are confident and well spoken.

    I love this question...if they are just passing through, I just try to be polite. If they are staying for a time, or if I am wanting them to, then humbleness, curiousity, honesty, integrity, and commonality, oh, and intelligence (or at least a willingness to learn..back to the humbleness and curiosity) :happy:

    Heartbeat is a good start. Add in a little breathing and I'm on the board.
