You know, I don't think I have a list of what I'm looking for in someone. My experience is that no-one fits the preset mould. Our presets we expect people to fit into can be pretty tough.

Also, by making preset decisions about what I like, I can end up repeatedly choosing "wrong people" for me. Frighteningly, making the same mistakes.

Now I think I'm looking at myself, and how I feel. What she does or doesn't bring out in me.

Can I be myself?
Can I express with her?
Can she be herself with me?
Do I know her?
Is the ride enjoyable together or difficult?
Do I feel supportive AND supported?
Do I enjoy her company?
Does she enthrall me?
Do I enthrall her?
Do I miss her when she's gone?
Is there/could there be respect, trust, care and love between us?
