[quote=urbanrealtor][quote=barnaby33]So not perfect, what a bunch of Spanish grammar Nazis. Pity me all you want, or not at all. I’m interested in finding what I’m interested in.
Josh[/quote]Yeah but having a checklist that is specific (other than like, “needs to be nice and smart”) is a dumb idea.
Including or excluding any group is really limiting.
I have dated smokers when I did not smoke and single moms when I was 22.
Love and happiness are where you find them.[/quote]

December 5, 2009 at 8:53 PM #490611barnaby33ParticipantPossibly, but pretending you don’t have a checklist is worse. I don’t date smokers and I’m not interested in single moms, neither makes me anything other than normal. If you have a broader base from which to draw, good for you. I’m not poo pooing your choices, its you who is doing so to me.
Quite to the contrary of your view, I think we all have checklists. I think its only in the everybody gets a trophy and nobody gets feelings hurt world where we don’t admit it.
If you don’t agree with my choices, by all means comment freely. I posted this thread expecting no less. If you think you are adding value with that type of comment, you are wrong. Then again, that’s just my judgment.
I will agree with you that love is where you find it and that being accepting of others is a very good trait to have. However its easy to prove you do have a checklist as I’m relatively certain I can find very specific traits that are an absolute deal killer for you and anyone else.
Acceptance must be tempered to varying degrees. I just admit that my acceptance is a bit harder to come by. I have somewhat higher standards, ahem I mean longer checklists.

Here’s my checklist:
1. Hot
2. Sense of humor
3. Hot
4. Disease-free
5. Hot
6. Stifles any urge to nagThings most men say they care about but I don’t:
1. Education, intelligence, etc.
These are traits I want my long-term friends to have (male or female). And if a woman I’m dating has them – bonus. But if she doesn’t – no big deal. It’s not like we’re going to get married, after all.
2. Kids
I’m not going to be their father. And sometimes it’s good when a woman you’re dating has a lot of other responsibilities on her plate – she has less time for you.
3. Smoking
As long as she doesn’t do it around me and keeps a healthy supply of breath mints handy.
4. Financial responsibility
I won’t be supporting her, so…December 6, 2009 at 9:48 AM #490917daveljParticipant[quote=barnaby33]Possibly, but pretending you don’t have a checklist is worse. [/quote]
