no shopping list for me...

Most people approach online dating with what I like the call a "shopping list".   They have a list of everything they are looking for in a potential partner in hopes that this will help them find the perfect person for them.  I have never subscribed to this method.  For the most part it is more of what I can't live with versus what I am looking for.

I was recently asked what I was looking for in a woman.  She liked my response so I thought I would share it here.

"That is a very good question. I am looking for a woman of substance. I think for the most part we are all looking for the same things. Obviously I want to be attracted, but I don't want her looks to define her. For the most part, other than those typical things I really am not looking for anything. I want to fall in love with a woman for who she is, not for what I hope her to be."
