I like it when women are:
-Deep. Most people are intelligent in some way, but few are actually DEEP. When I say deep, I mean you actually think deeply and USE your intelligence for more than just school or work. Deep people think deeply for friggin' fun! I mean, you can be a total math whiz but not have a deep bone in your body. You can also have a lot of intelligence but never use it because you're too lazy.
-Compassionate. Not in the sense that they're super nice, but rather actually compassionate, with empathy. Always tells the brutal, honest truth in the nicest way possible. Doesn't make promises she can't keep. Very sweet though.
-Strange, quirky, etc. Has a lot of abstract or weird things about her. Anti-conformist?
-Artist or a writer.
-Concerned with politics and similar views to mine.
-Same or similar taste in films, music, etc.
-Geeky, especially if she likes games--and even moreso if she's as ticked off at the gaming industry as I am.
-Enjoys bellydancing, but as a hobbie...not a professional. Don't ask...heh.
-Dark style, semi-gothy, etc.--but in an attractive way, not totally overkill or heavy on the make up.
-Long hair, especially if it's some dark color, or is blood-red.
-Curvey?
Okay, I know those last ones are a bit vein, but I can't deny I do find an attractive appearance a turn on. It's not everything, of course, but it plays a role.
