Welcome to Gaia! ::

At the risk of sounding superficial, here I go >>

Hm...I don't know if I have an ideal man. As far as physical attributes go, I prefer fit guys, so...not skinny nor very overweight. Preferably not a very nerdy appearance. Preferably doesn't give me too feminine of a vibe. Whatever he looks like, I have to be attracted to him physically. Intelligent, but not exorbitantly so. I don't want dumb. Compassionate about the fact that I have anxiety. Understanding that I am a basket case, yet still cares about me.
Would hope he likes my physical appearance (kind of sad if your own significant other thinks your "average" looking, although he doesn't need to think I'm gorgeous)
Nice to others, and respectful. He can be jerk-ish, but when it comes down to it, he needs to understand how to compromise.
Not overly flaky about the *important* things, such as our relationship. Everyone has their ups and downs, but if you're constantly questioning whether you love a person, you probably don't. If he's unsure about something in our relationship, he should be good at communicating it with me. So okay....a good communicator.
Ambitious enough to want to further himself in areas he feels he needs to.
Able to have fun
Able to have fun -relaxing-

OH, he needs to be open to discussing taboo topics...sometimes I'm a weird one with what I talk about. He shouldn't get offended EASILY by those types of things.

-Shares my love of traffic and my hate for it, but does NOT mind driving, since I do..

-Cultured and patient. You're interested in the world, but you'll also explain or teach me things without making me feel dumb.

-Not TOO judgmental. Ain't anyone got time for that

-Enjoys talking about psychology, especially relating to people and life

-Doesn't have scrawny legs (many guys are "fit", but they have skinny legs)

-Doesn't travel a lot because of work (LDR...EHH) (Moving constantly? Gee, I don't know)

-Respects my profession (whatever that is) and my choice to be employed part-time or full-time, so long as I'm contributing adequately (could be subjective) to the household

-Cares about his physical and emotional well-being

-Funny or weird in an interesting way

-When I talk to him, he can see the good and bad in me. I don't really want my significant other to think I'm all roses, nor would I like him to see me as the devil. (But there should be more rose than devil xD)

Those are just some things off the top of my head. Honestly, if I even got half of these things, I'd be lucky. I don't think I could get all of them. xD
I know I'm missing things from there, but I don't know at the moment what those things are.

Haha only a little. Last night was super chaotic...they didn't even upload the syllabuses until midnight. I didn't go to sleep until 5 a.m, had to wake up at 7 a.m. Was scared for the day to start, but I have a friend in my Research Methods class, so that made my day better, along with the fact that my adviser answered a couple questions. I also bought a piece of technology I needed at the book store, and I talked to my Intercultural Communications teacher to clarify something. All in all, a productive first day. Traffic was terrible, though Dx

Yeah...no math class for me either. Although I may utilize Stats in my Research Methods class (Stats 2, which I took over the summer, was a prerequisite for that course). Also, I have to make presentations in my intercultural communications class (NO), and I'm taking my first solely online class. It will be a different semester, for sure. xD
