Well, I do look nice today if I do say so myself. It's raining and super cold here, so if you guys just have to spy on me, I hope you brought an umbrella. I do feel like you're being a little unfair bringing Kodieh along to do your dirty work. lol

EDIT: We kind of thread-jacked. I feel bad for the OP.

If you do look good today, a visit to the female snake keepers thread is in order. :rolleyes:

Man, y'all are making me want to formulate a loose list of hopeful characteristics. Obviously sometimes the right person just happens, but man, if I could have an ideal partner... lol

It's because they don't lie. I'd lie with them though. Mila's hips are liars.

Yeah, I think Shakira's could lie all night, but I don't know about Mila's.

I prefer Rooney Mara in all honesty

I think you should add:

*Must be religiously/spiritually compatible with me.

So if you are atheist, he needs to be one too. If you are Jewish, he should be too. And so on.

That's ideal but me and wife are spiritually incompatible but have been married for coming on three years. So, it's not always the case but isn't a bad idea either.

Yeah, I think bases of faith can be different without it playing a large part on the relationship. I'd prefer not to date someone who completely opposes my beliefs, but as long as the other person is duly respectful of the way you practice and vice versa, it could make for a really interesting and fulfilling partnership whether or not you practice the same way.

You don't need to have the same faith/religion to have a successful marriage. My mom doesn't follow any specific religion, has the general idea that there's a higher being, and that the Bible is a combination of Jesus' geneology/a number of metaphors. My step-dad on the other hand, is christian.

Yes but does Shakira have the same sense of humor Mila does??? ( I've hung out with Mila in real life...she is freaking hilarious...and one nicest celebrities I've ever met)

Well, I am not saying it can't be done. But a lot of problems can be avoided. For instance, if Mom is a Jew and Dad is a Christian, how will the kids be raised? Will they go to church or synagogue? Or both?

I have also known people that dated/married someone that was not of the same faith with the idea that the could "change them" or "convert them." It seldom works that way.

Nothing wrong with both and letting the kid choose which religion they want to follow, if any at all.

This works just fine once the kid is old enough to make that kind of decision (for me, it was when I got my driver's license), but it isn't that simple when the kid is 3 years old, 10 years old, etc. There should be some guidance from parents while they are young, and that can cause conflict if two parents are telling them conflicting beliefs. Parents should have some kind of plan going into the situtaion of what consistent message they want their children to have.

Can't wait to go to Vet Tech school. I plan on finding my sweetheart there. I know she will be into the same things I am.

Not always. I made my choice early on. My dad was a staunch atheist, though, he didn't go around proclaiming it that I can remember, and my mom read me the bible. From a very young age, I had little interest in religion.

Mmmm Shakira in the She Wolf video...I didn't know the human body was physically capable of doing some of those things.

But see, even if they didn't formally discuss it, he let your mom be the outspoken one rather that disagreeing with her constantly in front of you to impress his own opinions.

I have a unique religious background. My mother is catholic, my dad is Jewish. I was raised Jewish but exposed to all aspects of Catholicism. I began my atheist tendencies when I went into high school. I'm now very anti-religion but I still respect the beliefs of my family and friends.

Its a touchy subject. Obviously I would never be able to date someone who was extremely religious, but on the other hand I have no problems with individual spirituality. I have my own spirituality and it involves my connection with nature and the universe. Much more logical from my perspective :)

Except I had the opinion formed before she even started reading it. Prior to that, they didn't discuss it.

Um... No...
Where do you come up with this silly stuff?

Well, Religion is different for me because I'm Pagan. I don't date Christians, never met a male Pagan, and I have a tendency to date Athiests. If I am talking about my beliefs it is because someone has asked. I was raised Southern Baptist and my family knows that I have no faith in the Bible. I believe there are good Christians, not that all Christians are good, same for Athiests and everything in between. It's just easier for me to date them because they don't ask, I don't tell, we don't argue. Simple and works well =)

I do think you should add that they groom themselves. Some guys out there don't know how to bathe or take care of themselves too well, I ran into a few of those while I was dating and it was a huge turn off.

Are we talking like soap and water or shaving? Girls that wanted me to shave daily was a huge turn off.

Ummmm, what guy doesn't use soap and water or deodorant...? EW!

I'm an atheist, religion had no bearing on my dating standards what so ever. Don't judge me and I won't judge you.

Sometimes when you quit actively looking for love, or "the one," you end up finding it right where you didn't expect it to be. May be someone that you already know, never considered as an option, but then through a series of events, they become an option and perhaps more. I'm not saying this is a surefire way to find love...and taking a week to "be single" isn't going to magically produce a husband/wife...but sometimes getting back to "you" clears your head a bit. Doesn't work for everyone...worked for me! :)

That's what I did! I came out of a horrible relationship, and yelled out loud in my friend's car that I was never dating anyone again. Months later I met my husband now. He had a job, a car, a reasonable house and showed such an initiative to better himself and earn a living. And he was cute too. :)

My point being, you really never know what's around the corner. As for being bi and looking for one or the other, hm.. I always say that the person who I married could have been either a guy or girl.. it just happened that I clicked with my now-husband and he happened to be a guy. I never looked around for one or the other, per se.

Just immerse yourself in life.. enjoy those pets (it is not a crime for your life to revolve around them, and anyone that you get together with should respect that!) I guess that you just know when that person clicks with you, and if you click with them too.. that's where that's at. If it never happens, that's where life's at, too.
