- you are nice, respectful
- you get along with my friends/respect them
- you are open sexually to new things
- you are generally respectful towards all living things
- you do not mind my level of hygiene (while i am clean, i am not clean to the ridiculous chemically-sterile sense that most people expect)

- you have ambition to make something of your life
- you like eating snacks
- you dont eat meat

- you are interested in me beyond what I look like, what I am thinking at this moment, etc.
- you learn from your mistakes and bad decisions
- you read at least a handful of books per year (i'm not asking for you to be a weekly new yorker reader or even pour through a book a week, honest)
- you will try new foods and new things if i make them for you or if i want to try them
- you're willing to discuss problems instead of dishing out ultimatums
- you're comfortable with your level of masculinity or lacktherof, but not obsessed with it
- I would prefer, that if you drank, it would be moderately, and not often, and certainly not whatever you could find

- you have the desire to live somewhere different from where you grew up, at least for a while
- and to travel places much different from where you grew up
- you do not mind when i pee in the shower (SO IMPORTANT. AUTOMATIC DEALBREAKER.)
- you like hiking, biking, swimming (in order of importance) and generally being outside, when the weather is acceptable
- but easily adapt to freezing cold and staying indoors and sitting all day, without complaint
- you are good at saving money (very important, because I am absolutely not)
- you appreciate me (really the most important thing of all, can override some but not all of dealbreakers)
