What I've learned is that having a partner who suffers from a lack of intellect, of creativity, or the ability to communicate effectively, will quickly result in my becoming very bored. I guess I have a low tolerance (not to mention a limited attention span) for that sort of situation. The other thing I've learned is that I need to be watchful of people who claim, at least initially, to want the same things and the same lifestyle I want. It almost always turns out that they're being dishonest about that, and things become problematic when the truth comes out.

Never really have dated, great relationships in the past developed from friendships. Except for good sex & intimacy (including great kisser!) and, yes, eye candy; ... I look for the same traits I hold dear in all my friendships: Integrity Loyalty Warmth Tenderness Compassion Intelligence Humour (Needs to be twisted!) Accountability Adept Communication Skills Common Interests Playfulness Adventurous Non-dogmatic/Open minded Tough Spirited Upbeat
