Speaks English as his or her first language, and is a good communicator;
Has an eternally curious intelligence, so we can explore ideas together;
Has a good sense of humor that intersects mine a lot of the time.

Hmm. Ideally, my list would be much longer.

1. Fun: this includes sense of humour and playfulness etc.

2. Personality: this includes passion and friendliness etc. I would like her to be herself and have a love for life.

3. Intelligence: wit, charm and knowledge.

Intelligent-I need to be able to have a conversation with him
Good sense of humor-I like to laugh and be laughed at
Kind-I want someone who treats others as well as me

Have a good heart.

A love for heart and be positive even when it's hard.

To be curious and not afraid to learn new things and challenge/explore/change his views/thoughts.


Of course kindness/charm/humor/politeness/romantic and a bunch of other things have to come in as well, but those 3 I mentioned above stand out a little. :)
I can live my life with someone who's almost negative or content with not moving forward.

Intellectual curiosity: a need to continue learning and evolve one's opinions;

Taking informed risks and a willingness to expand limits, sexual or otherwise;

Humor, especially of the darker variety;

1. Attentiveness.
2. Humility.
3. Spontaneity.

;-)

I probably haven't met Mr. Right yet, since he should have noticed me by now!

Never made a list before, but I'd have to put honesty right at the top.

A sense of humor has to be balanced with intelligence though. Hard to make one a priority over the other so they tie for second place.

Gonna go out on a limb on the last one, but somebody that is a good sparring partner. I know that sounds weird, but my husband and I do not always agree on the issues, but our arguments are awesome! No vitriol, no oneupsmanship, just plain ole good debate. Neither of us never win, of course, but that's the beauty of living with somebody else. It keeps things very interesting. It also helps if he knows he's an asshole, too.

Good one. My wife said that what attracted her to me was my "sparring" skills. I could stand up to her and was respectful at that. Never used profanity to makemy point. But when she does it doesn't draw me into using it also.
