What's your ideal partner in life? Do you have qualifications for this one? I'm thinking if you can find your ideal love one in life can it make your relationship better with her or him? Who can answer this? :)

I had quite bad experiences in relationships.So first priority is no U turns and more stability.I hate that fear that on given day you are happiest person in the world and in the next moment your are stuck in a nightmare.Best wishes.

Sad to hear that grvdubey. I know it would be so hard to love again when you have experience that kind of relationship but don't make a wall in your heart. Someday, you'll find also the guy that is meant for you. Take care

I think my ideal partner is someone who can make me complete. She will support me in any conditions even if i'm down . And of couse i will feel stronger if she is on my side. I will protect her.

My ideal partner, is a man who will love me and treat me like my father did. He has to be a provider, makes me feel secured, protected and loved.

I think my ideal partner would be someone who would support me in my endeavors. As well as encourage me to continue to better myself and my life. It could for us to think about these things carefully when we are considering courting someone because it does become a life changing decision.

When it comes to this I have one. I haven't made up a list but seriously I'm planning to have one. An ideal husband? There should be a negotiable and non-negotiable list. It I think it is too early to list them all but what comes into my mind is that. I want a partner who can be a great provider, loving husband and who is very understanding. Above all, I want him a family oriented husband.

I used to have really specific details about the person I'll marry. I had the exact height, exact eye color and the like. I even had an exact position as to where his mole should be! But now, I've just realized that my ideal partner is someone who loves me and someone I do love. I have chosen to forget about the specifics because I believe that there really might be someone with the "ideal" characteristic, but if there wasn't any love between us, it wouldn't make sense. I suppose all the people we fall in love with fits into all our ideals somehow. We may not always see this though. I believe that when you have found someone you truly love, treating that person in the best way you can is the only way for both of you to have a wonderful relationship.

I totally agree. I think you want the looks, position when you are younger. As you get older you want to be loved an treated right.

My ideal partner should be tall, srtong but not fat man with small eyes, because I think small eyes r so sexy and charming. But I still reckon that no matter how many qualifications u made before u find the right one, the real partner appear to ur life somday would not be the one u though before. And at that time, u'll ignore all the standards u made before, u just like him and wanna be with him, that's the key point. So I got married last May with a guy with small eyes actually but not tall, which was the main and important point for me before and now, I apparently ignored it.

I dont think there ever is an ideal one. We just need one that good for us. We all are looking for something different in a mate.

Hi kijikiken... Most people who prepare a list of qualifications of an ideal husband/wife end up marrying late or not deviating from the list. When they stick to the list of qualifications, they are surprised that there is no single person who possesses all the qualities in the list. Because of this they marry late not because it is the only time they find "him" but it is the only time they realize it is impossible to have "him". When preparing a list of qualifications for an ideal husband/wife, we tend to become perfectionist. He/She is so perfect to exist. When I was single, I also had the list. But when I found this girl, I decided to deviate from the list. Though this girl does not possess all the qualities in the list, we still live happily together. Another fact is, if the ideal man/woman exists, your life with him is boring. It is boring because you don't need to adjust and there seems no challenge at all. Thus, you won't grow at all.
