If I were cheated on we'd be fighting, of course that makes the assumption that someone isn't including agreed upon extramarital relationships as cheating. As for #1 being emotional abuse I wouldn't necessarily consider sarcasm abuse. Which is part of what I meant when I said there could be other factors.

#3 seems the safer path on the surface, but #1 has the most to gain, but at a price. #1 would have to learn manners real quick, or she's walking the streets.

uhh none of the above would be my honest answer,but since you want a choice of the 3 posted , yuck guess i'd take 1

How about strong willed and loyal, frisky and funny, caring about all humans and intelligent,

Okay okay I know, not on the list.

I choose none then.

So I take it that some of you were'nt very big fans of the Dating Game show.

No that show was fine, just a lot more wiser now.

No.1 but leave out borderline insulting

I would have to continue to pass and possibly remain single for another 11 years....

We will find something that we don't like in everybody.

I am curious as to what people reading this, pictured in their mind for each one, was there any curiousity of one of their personalities or if there might be more to them, or is it simply a rejection and refusal of choice because the original query was the product of another's mind, making it totally alien to our individual realizations?


I know, blah blah blah.....

Perhaps my response means that I should have posted in the philosophy forums. :)

guess i will have 2 go with #1
none seem good 2 me but of the 3 choices, i choose #1

True, no one is going to be the "perfect" match. But I think we can all do a far sight better than the choices given. I think part of the reason for so many people opting for "none of the above" is because even in those traits that one finds pretty much universally bad there are degrees that might be ok. For instance I'm a very difficult person to insult. In generally I love sarcasm so to say someone is sarcastic almost to the point of being insulting means to me they are incredibly rude. #2 while infidelity is not good I'm not devastated over that sort of thing, but the implication for me is that the person is dishonest and that is a HUGE deal to me (I'm also not a fan of insecurity in my partner). The point is each of us read our worst case situation into those traits whether they are traits we my be fine with in the right circumstances or they are traits we really hate. Really hard to make a choice under those circumstances.

None of the above; would rather stay single.
