I was very lucky, I already found my perfect partner I can't even believe how we met, it was so unlikely to meet a woman like her in a place like that. But I'm so glad I did, because I could find no better woman for me. She understands and relates to me, and has this enthralling passion about doing things that she really enjoys, such as writing, that I really admire. She also gives me more love than I thought I could ever deserve, and not a day goes by where I don't feel loved.
Hmm, the perfect partner. I'd probably have to wish for someone who is calm and well adjusted, to balance off my dramatic tendencies and flightiness, and hopefully encourage me to do better in hard situations. :) I'd also love someone of the geekier genre, someone who would watch cartoons with me even if we're 'past the age' for it, someone who might enjoy a gaming session or hey, even go to a couple of conventions. A man or a woman who was relaxed in their interests and happy to share them with me. And if we would rather partake in separate activities, they prefer camping and I prefer a day at home, then I would like someone who was fine with enjoying themselves on their own and then coming back to me for whatever we wanted to share together. It's all about balance for me.
On the selfish front, I would like someone who would keep me warm on the cold days, because even 65 degrees to me is cold. Someone who would be interested having children one day, probably into our thirties, once school and financial constraints might be less of an issue. A person who loves dogs, and never asks me to see a horror movie unless they're offering to hold my hand the whole way through. Someone who is comfortable and loves me and my asexuality, and someone I can make feel comfortable and loved in turn.
And spiders. My perfect partner has to squish all the spiders. :P
And it's belated but, happy first date anniversary to you and your husband ~
My perfect partner would be literally so far out of my league it wouldn't even be funny. D;
He'd be tall, not too skinny or too heavy, I guess average, but he'd get extra points if he was toned (not buff. muscles creep me out a bit). He'd preferably have tattoos, maybe piercings. He'd have a love of music and art and cars and movies and books. He'd understand that I don't like to cuddle and I have a tendency to distance myself from people physically and emotionally sometimes and he'd be okay with that and would stick through it with me. He'd be respectful, but sort of dominant. He'd go to concerts with me and not get jealous when I fangirl over bands. Maybe he'd even be in a band, if I'm super lucky. ;3 He wouldn't want kids, or at least respect the fact that I never want kids. He'd travel with me when I get the urge to run away for a bit. We'd go on random dates together and do stupid things at like two in the morning just because we can. He'd have a sense of humor, play video games with me, watch my weird nerdy shows, cartoons, and animated movies. and be okay with doing couple's cosplay even if I genderbend, like Dave/Dirk from Homestuck. He gets extra, extra points if he's a vegetarian like me so I don't have to make separate meals for him and me. He'd also better have a love of B-horror movies so we can laugh at them together. And he would have to be okay with us maybe not ever getting married because I'm still not sure if I want marriage. And if we ever did get married, hopefully he'd be cool with getting married on Halloween and having a costume wedding.
Now, if I was going to end up with a girl, this would be a whole different story because I'm EXTREMELY picky with girls and it would take forever to type out a list of the perfect girl. People are probably like, "wow, she can get pickier than that?" haha.
My perfect partner would be Slavic, at least okay with religion enough to let me raise our (many) kids in it, and pretty masculine. I will be working but also will probably be taking care of the house and cooking. Intelligence is a plus, but as long as they'd be okay listening to me ramble on about concepts or theories or current events, and would try to learn a little bit from that, then it'd be okay if they were not as smart as me. It'd also be okay if they were smarter than me, too. Hopefully, they would be political. If not, they would have to let me be political.
Ooh. And they'd have to like hockey or at least tolerate it enough to make sure all of our sons play it.
Look wise, I like all types. Most consistently I like blonde hair and blue eyes, but I can think of four guys off the bat who I like that don't have at least one of those attributes.
i really don't think people should have a "list" of what they want in someone lol it's too unrealistic and it created impossible expectations
it is a natural thing when you (really) fall in love with someone, you learn to love what they have of best, you'll even love some of the person's defects, and you'll learn to live with the things about him/her that you don't like that much. you don't fall in love with someone because they know how to cook or because they have freckles or whatever
my perfect partner is someone who can actually put up with me and all my shit aka im clinging to her like a leech and never letting go
Hmm.
My perfect guy, I don't get attracted to those mysterious guys so I really would like someone just kind of adorable and derpy. They don't have to be super muscular, but I will admit that I just want a guy with an average body, nothing over-weight but a guy way skinnier than me would do nothing for my self esteem LOL. But yeah, an adorable, awkward, and overall cute person haha. And someone who has read harry potter and will fangirl with me YOLO ;)

Well people do have lists, lots of people here have lists and you should respect the fact that we do have lists and take your unwanted opinions elsewhere
DeviantART
Ping me to get my attention
oh lol except that you're the one being disrespectful alright so whatever opinions aren't the same as yours are useless, unwanted and rude that's a nice way of seeing things
My perfect partner? In this order:
...I'm pickier with girls though... but off the top of my head, they would have to let me be dominant every once in a while at least :|
He is taller than me, he is a bit tan, almost everyone is darker than me since I blend in with printer paper, he has brown hair and brown eyes, a few freckles and a really nice smile. He is too smart for his own good and handles so much and still manages to handle me. He helps me with my work and helps me through my medical problems. He tries to stay awake with me all night and tries to make sure I eat. He lets me get upset and weepy for no reason, and lets me talk to him and rub his back when he gets weepy. He is cocky but backs it up, he can't paint at all no matter how hard he tries. He gets me funny tshirts and wears the ones I get him. He tries to write poems but is better at mixing songs. He's never seen Kill Bill and lets me force him into watching movies. He doesn't mind the scars from surgery and my offness when on painkillers from it. He puts up with my bad driving and helps me pull up my hair and paint my nails. He lets me borrow his clothing because it's bigger and smells like him. He is strong but it doesn't show much. He lets me fall asleep with my head on his stomach just listening to him breathe and his voice resonate through his chest as he talks. He puts his cold hands on my forehead and neck when I have a bad headache. He keeps me up when I'm overtired so he can poke at my sides and watch me lose my breathe laughing too hard because it's his favorite thing, to see me laugh that hard. He does this thing where he takes his socks off, but only half way, he pulls them off his heels but lets them stay over his toes and arch of his foot because he likes the feeling. He can finish a Jr. Baconator in three bites and knows the entire Donkey Kong rap. He likes the spots on my stomach and gives them kisses when he can. He lets me stick my hands up his shirts when I'm cold and because I just like touching his skin. He lets me read all his comic books and even buys the ones he doesn't read but I do. He rubs my back when I get home from the hospital and just sits and watches me paint. He makes me try new foods but still makes me dinosaur chicken nuggets when I ask for them. He shows me new TV shows then doesn't get mad when I watch the rest without him because he knows I'll watch them all over again with him. He lets me kiss his tummy and sides and knees and wherever I can. He is ticklish and gets scared easily but is the bravest person I know. And most imprtantly he is mine.
He has to be able to put up with my crap, and he has to be able to give me crap right back. Because I know I'm not easy to handle at all. He has to be really outdoorsy like me. I love hiking, camping, rock climbing, canoeing, fishing, the whole works. I don't think I could ever be in a serious relationship with a "city boy." He doesn't have to be a complete country boy or anything, just has to be able to last more than three days in the wilderness without any form of electronic device. He has to have a good sense of humor. I'm a goofy person and I need someone who I can talk to about serious issues, and just as easily joke around with (without it being awkward of course). It might sound dumb, but he also has to appreciate really crappy sci-fi and horror movies. Watching the "Wrong Turn" movie series and old zombie movies was the highlight of my childhood. And he has to be an animal lover. And not being afraid of bugs is a huge plus in my book, because one of my majors is Entomology (and I may or may not have an eight-legged pet that I've smuggled into my dorm.....) And he should like to cook and garden almost as much as I do (not as much, because that's a little excessive). And if he doesn't like to cook, he should at the very least be okay with taste testing my recipes. Overall, he should be pretty laid back. And the more I write this description of my perfect partner, the more I realize that I've already found my perfect partner. He's my bestfriend, and he'll never date me. But it's all good, as long as I have him in my life.
I wanted to stay in character but ah well. I don't really have a "perfect" idea for a partner. Everyone has flaws and realistically I think that having this mental image of your perfect partner will, for the most part, lead to disappointment in the future. Either that or you will fall in love and your idea of a perfect partner will evolve into most of the qualities of whom you are in love with. No need to get feisty with people for differing opinions! If everyone had the same opinion, the world would be a boring mess.
However, my "perfect" partner is just one that likes similar things that I do. Not everything I do as that would be kind of dull in it's own way. I want someone with their own individualism. I don't want to be with my twin or anything. I'd PREFER someone that was into anime and/or manga, some of the fandoms I have (Doctor Who, Torchwood, Spartacus, Supernatural, Sherlock, Firefly, etc.), someone that -does- enjoy playing video games, likes some of the same music I do or can at the very least tolerate it as I do enjoy my prog/power/symph metal, and/or at least a few of my other interests (the paranormal, ancient history/mythology, etc.)... that's about it. I think finding someone with at least -some- similar interests is a given and isn't really "expecting too much". There's really only two major things that I expect out of someone I'm going to have a serious relationship with. One is that they have to be able to put up with -my- flaws. Second is that they have to be completely honest and faithful towards me at all times. Without those two things it won't work out. Everything else is minor stuff.
someone who will put up with me on my worst days and be able to enjoy my best days with me. i guess that's pretty vague but it really is all i'd expect of someone.

My perfect man would be someone who can lead me and is protective. I tend to like guys that aren't too outgoing and into themselves (a.k.a. complimenting themselves, etc.). Anybody that can laugh with me is also a plus. As far as appearance, I don't really have too much preference. I do prefer that he isn't too buff or anything, nor too scrawny. I'd also like for him to be able to take care of himself. ^^ That's really it.
Also, brown hair = ❤ ^^; Just putting that out there.
I just want someone who will be honest, who will love me for me, and who will be understanding about my problems. I guess that's a lot to ask though.
May I ask if you're into guys or girls? Because you totally just described a friend of mine to the tee, lol.
Basically, anyone who would be able to put up with my bullshit, which isn't really easy. Someone who understands that they can't just cure me of my problems, and will be there regardless. Someone who is kind and caring, who is willing to work with me so that we can both be happy. I need someone who will remind me to take care of myself, because I often forget. I need someone who will be able to handle my moods, and who won't get angry at me when I'm going through a rough time and can't handle everything that's happening to or around me at once. Someone who will never make me feel ashamed of myself, my weight, my habits, my mental illnesses, my past, my addictions, or my appearance. I'm an introvert and it's another must that my partner understands that and doesn't force me into situations that will terrify me. Pushing me to be a little more outgoing and maybe try some new things once in a while is healthy, but I can't be overwhelmed, or I break down. Someone who is into nerdy things, who will at least tolerate my music tastes, who is motivated and who would help me to motivate myself when I slink into depressive moods and can't find reason for anything. Someone who will play video games with me, or sit around watching movies, or just cuddle because it's lovely. And of course, someone who doesn't mind that I'm a shitty cook. ^^; I'm a great baker though ahah.
I have my perfect partner! c:
Physically, he's everything I've ever wanted--tall, dark, and super handsome with long hair, an adorable big nose, and brown eyes. He's also a little on the heavier side, which is something I've always been really attracted to. And he has this cute scruffy little beard that makes me wanna hold his face and kiss it. Some of his physical traits also ended up on my "perfect partner" list simply because he has them--his nice eyebrows and the cute little gap between his front teeth. UwU
Emotionally, he caters to pretty much my every need. He lets me know every day how much he loves me and that I'm the only person he has eyes for. He respects my identity and handles my anxiety disorder with compassion. He is, by far, the most wonderful person on the face of the planet and I love him more than anything.
