My day was jammed with all kinds of activities, so I spent a lot of time driving all over the county. Once again, I had too much time alone with myself to think about current events. On this occasion, I chose to be positive and asked myself this question: If you could have three things, characteristics, or behaviors, from your previous girlfriend, and place them in a future girlfriend, what would they be?
To my surprise it took me all day long to decide what those three things would be. I even called a friend, who is well versed in my misery, for some assistance. She gave me one of the characteristics.... she must have felt sorry for me coming up empty.
So fellow bloggers, tell me what is important to you. If you are single, what would be three characteristics in a partner that you would love to have, if you are married, what three characteristics do you absolutely cherish? I will share later.

What I have to think about is what charaistics do I have to bring to the table concerning a relationship. Ok, that being said, Passion(for life and love), Openness (for trust, honesty), Humor (for calm, peace of mind). Keep blogging. Good stuff...roy
Pretty much what brain said..
kind of a no brainer really...lol
But what makes a "friend" turn in to a "partner" is pure chemistry.
That is the stuff there are no words for ...its the stuff that turns kisses into magic and smiles in to unspoken poetry & words..
honesty
integrity
passion
Been there, done that...
When I have too much time on my hands, my brain can become my worst of all possible enemies. Or, ever worse, I might come up with one of my BRIGHT ideas...
Hope you are having a good day.
It appears as if I didn't formulate my post very well. I asked myself one question, and everyone else something totally different. To be thorough, I will answer both questions.....
You folks have really great answers..... Ultimately, I would like to have, in order of importance, honesty, passion, and curiosity. My perfect match would have these characteristics.
What my past lover possessed, which I would like to have in a future lover are: Letting me know, in no uncertain terms that I was loved. When the relationship was good I felt extremely loved. I could honestly say that only my mother loved me more. Her sense of curiosity and exploration equaled mine. I was so happy to go exploring life with her. For me her beauty was beyond measure. I never grew tired of her company.
The ability to make me laugh, kindness, honesty.
After A While
by Veronica A. Shoffstall
After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
and company doesn't always mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises
and you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes ahead
with the grace of woman, not the grief of a child
and you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling downin mid-flight.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much
so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn and you learn with every goodbye, you learn... -->
I don't know why I wanted to send this to you, but I felt like I wanted to, so I did.
I can't answer this cuz somehow I fell in love with someone when I was not looking. Opposites attract, and yes our past relationships help to define what we want in the next -- so with that said:
- not to be jealous of my World
- patience
- unselfish and giving (ok, both my past and current had this so I have been blessed with having this in another)
I hope you continue to heal. Keep loving yourself and working on you. Right now, this is priority. Love is like a bonus to the priority.
Yeah...what Sober said!
Time for a new post Z Z Z Z Z Z
;p just kidding...hope you are well.
I am with Tab, how is your weekend?
