This is why I prefer blunt girls in relationships. My exwife held back on stuff irritating her for months... it was insane...

My exgf, she was VERY blunt, and you knew exactly what was bothering you because usually you hadn't finished yet. Such a great quality. I am always glad that she's still in my life as a good friend. ^^

Another friend I made recently, she's... a work in progress I gotta teach her to be more blunt.

Someone like me? I have a ton of flaws, you might not want someone like me in real life.

Who doesn't have flaws... and seriously being with someone perfect would soon become annoying.

Well... if you want to find a guy who will treat you right... your best bet is probably the nerdy ones... there's a chance you'll be the only shot they ever get.
(I also read they tend to treat you better)

lol, nerdy isn't bad... especially if they have some enjoyment of gaming... they won't mind my love of spending time in that area as they also understand it's allure.

Yeah, the only hard part is finding the truly nerdy ones
Not the "I'm so nerdy I play farmville" crap... ugh...
But I think a game choice says a lot about a person...

It would be nice to find someone who doesn't just dig into games or TV shows... but also knows their history and current events... and for me... my future should include a religious guy... same lifestyle and values makes creating a future together easier... afterall, relationships are already full of pitfalls. why add to them?

Have you ever tried the "Write down all you want" technique? Sometimes helps to see if you're being unrealistic or too realistic.

Personally I would prefer someone who respects other people's religions. Too many fanatics these days

I have never written it down but I have thought it over and over.

Want:
Respectful.
Good manners.
Hard-working.
Has humor.
Laid-back and easy going.
Religious (it just makes it easier if we aren't fighting about what to do or not do on the Sabbath.)
Compassionate

Don't Want:
Lazy
Disrespectful
Crude or Rude (even in humor)

Bonus:
Older than me
Has had a steady job for awhile (prove that they can commit and also can actually hold a job)
Taller than me
Same music sense (but not a must)
Understands gaming and has at least an basic willingness to allow science fiction and anime)

Lets see. Most of that is pretty reasonable, though it might be kinda hard to find a humorous guy who doesn't use any crude humor. Though... in my opinion, crude humor takes a lot of well placed tact to use, otherwise it's just rude humor.

Different music taste can be nice as long as some music overlaps, that way you can dabble in what the other likes a little.

I wrote gaming as a must on mine...

All in all I think you've got the right mindset, though it could use a bit of refining. Adding/changing things over time to get an opinion that extends past just one day.

My opinions have definitely changed since I was little.

In the case of the humor, I want to be around a guy who respects me enough to temper the kind of jokes he tells in a female's presence. I have friends who have bad humor in that sense, but they don't say anything around me. Just among themselves.

My music tastes are very diverse. I have my favorites but except for death metal, I can get along with most music.

Finding a guy though who can handle me... that would be nice.

Something you should know... Steve Martin... a very well known family friendly actor... um.... most of his jokes... aren't family friendly... He's got one heck of a dirty joke log.

That's not to say being able to curb your jokes for those of more discreet nature... that's where tact comes in. I mean, a guy shouldn't be using adult jokes to try and impress you anyways...

Hi Kirin :)

Hi Silver :)

Poet, you have a point. I guess I should refine the list to include tact. Because as much as I like bluntness, I don't like dirty jokes or cussing or using words that are potentially using God/Jesus' name inappropriately. I just don't want tact to be taken as indirectness... direct works better with me more often than not... but there is a place for tact ^_^

Oh I was wondering... if I decided to somehow do a "fire lord" cosplay with my avatar... do you have any ideas for reference pictures of fire nation royalty or something I might use? the new CI has me... inspired... but I want to do cosplay and not original

Tact is a very important quality. It's something you want not only a partner to have, but your friends as well.

Some of my friends have it... some don't.

Hanging at my dad's place. First time I have spend Christmas in the USA in 3 years. I want to tell them how much it means, but am so darn introverted that the most important moments are the moments it is hardest to express myself and I don't know why. It should be the easiest.

I'm grateful :) When I lived and worked in Korea, my coworkers told me I was a bit over enthusiastic at times and bouncy and sometimes a bit picky and talked a lot ... but that was why they liked having me around. The very things I worry about they like :)

Introverts are what make the world go around. Otherwise long ago the extroverts would have gotten humanity all killed off.

I know and am thankful for that. Still remember how we met too. I was the strange girl in the dorm you watched TV in the lounge with you and then one day at Clyde Peters Vespers while you were leading the horse I started talking and you were like what? Then I pointed out we had a lot in common based on TV shows alone and we were friends since :)
