^ I think your standards are good ones...Not errybody lookin' 4 a guy w/ a detailed truck who still stays w/ mommy or a nice crib but no car.
that's funny that I saw this post because I had sat down ealrier today and made a list of all the things I see in the guy that I am with now.....we've got a lot of things to deal with, the main thing right now is making sure that he returns safely from Iraq.
So here are some things:
Now everyone is saying no kids ... i agree that kids can be a problem...not necessarily the kids but the baby mama's attached to them....I can deal with the kids if the situation with the mother is straight. I'm not talking four or five kids but i can deal with one.....I love kids and if I love the man I can deal with a child.
some other things that I have noticed:
-matches my interest in education and learning
-matches my ideals of marriage and family
-matches my educational level (or close to it)
-has the same desire to succeed in life and has a definination of success that matches my own
-has a good work ethic
- kind and considerate
- respectful and thoughtful
-Places God first in his life
- Makes me smile at just the thought of him
- loves me for me
well personally i have pretty high standards b/c i believe that i deserve the best and i wont settle for just any dude cuz i'm worth more than that. i aint like them gurlz who find it a necessity 2 hav a man, and i aint desperate neither. i do pretty well on my own thank you. i believe that God has a person out there for errybody and we just gotta wait on His timing. that's why i ain't in no rush. but in general, the qualities i look for are:
physical: taller than me (pref 5'10" and above), dark (LUV da dark chocolate brothas!), well kept/groomed (SHORT HAIR!!!, sideburns (a bonus), neat fingernails (no biting!), clean clothes, smells good!!), fit (slim/bit thick-all good, tho i prefer slim cuz that's what i am)
personality: good boy, luv da Lord, knows how 2 act (calm/reserved), funny (Lord knows I love to laugh), sweet/considerate (thinks not only of himself), RESPECTFUL, is himself (accepts himself for who he is and doesnt try 2 imitate other folk), happy (no need for a dude 2 bring in bad vibes and mess up my day erryday), ambitious (doesnt settle for anything), dedicated/committed, works hard
and like other ppl said:
-no kids
-brings money 2 da table (da legal way!)
now this dont mean that a dude gotta have ALL these traits cuz in da end all that matters is how u treat me and how u treat urself. if u respect urself and u really love me, then the rest will just fall into place. overall, tho, personality is the most attractive thing about a nikka.
But I guess I never really put my necessities. Im into someone:
Who is like me.
Who looks good.
Who brings out the best in me.
:arrow:
IT REALLY DONT MATTER TO ME JUST AS LONG AS THEY HAVE A GOOD HEAD ON THEIR SHOULDERS AND THEY LOOKIN LIKE SOMETHIN
smh...i'm tellin' u some of ya'll gon' be some lonely people if ya'll stick to some of these standards??? Ex. Sideburns...WTH? I guess I need to add No chest hair 2 my list also :roll:
I hope you realized that i meant what i said as a compliment.....kool it, now.
