Take notes boys, cause I'm sure I'm not the only girl who agrees with what I'm about to write.

1: Respect. I am huge on respect. A guy, or anyone for that matter, has to respect others, whether it be authority, friends or kids. He also needs to respect himself. That is almost an instant win for me.

2: Caring. He needs to care about the things I say and do. He doesn't always have to be interested, and it needs to be a two way street. He listens to me, I listen to him. But he needs to show he cares about me, not leave me guessing.

3: The right time for the right attitude. He should be a funny guy who knows how to laugh, but I don't want a guy who's too serious or too chill all the time. A good balance of both, and knowledge of the proper time and place for each, is great.

4: If he likes kids, that's a ++++++. I will not ever date or marry a guy who doesn't like kids, I love kids, and if he loves kids too and is good with them, then that's even better.

5: Making me laugh. If you can make me laugh then you win.

I literally just listed characteristics of a guy I know. He is all of these. He is great.
