    Ok, I don't know what everybody else is doing but I am looking at a mound of paperwork on my desk and I am trying to avoid it. So because of that I am going to start another MFP dating thread. Lol which is in of itself funny cause my life is so busy (work fulltime, have full custody of 2 small kids, coach, etc) that I do not have time to date. But this is mainly to distract me from work :-) So what are the qualities you look for in someone when you decide to date? For me (in no particular order)...

    1. Must share the same faith as me
    2. Must love kids
    3. Must have kids and/or want more kids
    4. Must be honest & faithful
    5. Has to be a country girl at heart
    6. Has to have a silly side
    7. Must be compassionate, passionate and kind
    8. Must respect that the kids always come first.

    What does everybody else's list look like?

    1. Check!
    2. Check!
    3. I want about 15 kids...No joke. - Adoption : )
    4. Check!
    5. Check!
    6. Check check! Can a person be TO silly?
    7. Check!
    8. Check!

    To bad I am kinda young : )

    And I am pretty old! lol :-) 34.5 years old!

    1. Must not be/have ever been a drug addict.
    2. Must not be an ex-con.
    3. Must not be/have ever been a prostitute (yes, I'm talking about men.)
    4. Must have a job.
    5. Must have some sort of transportation.
    6. Must respect me & my children.

    Is it sad that I have personal stories behind EVERY ONE of these???

    WOW...you just described my ex-husband (except no one would pay him to have sex with them!)

    Someone who won't pepper spray me and run.

    On the other hand, my girlfriend had to lower her standards substantially.

    Anytime a woman dates any man she has lowered her standards. :-)

    How do you measure that? lol

    Mine:
    1) they must share my faith
    2) they must share my traditional values
    3) they must be passionate, compassionate, and a "touchy" type
    4) they must love the outdoors
    5) pictures in miiltary uniform bump them to the top of the list.

    I hate to admit this, but I am picky.

    I tend to like what my friends call pretty boys. The more out of the league in the looks department they are, the more I like them :grumble:

    Family oriented meaning they would rather be with me and the kid/s doing something with us, than out bowling or golfing of fishing with thier buddies. Not that he should NEVER do those things, but they should not be priotiy # 1.

    Should be up on current events, I like to have conversations about what is going on in our world, be it poitical, religious, or even about the state of mind of Lindey Lohan or lack thereof...

    Should want to be a good provider for the family, not the only one, but at least not wanting me to take care of him and the family while he sits at home on the net chatting with other women... Yes I am bitter about that one! lol

    Should love PDA, not the gross make out in public kind, but the hand holding slip me a peck every once in a while kind.

    Average intimate life between us would be welcome. Five years of marriage with maybe a handful of passionate moments stunk!

    Good personal hygiene is a must specifically must brish their teeth! A handsome smile is a plus!

    I too am sure there a others, but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head, and since I have not found this special someone yet, I am willing to wait for it and not settle for less.
