I see intelligence as being the most important thing, followed quickly by a quirky sense of humor and honesty. Looks really arn't that important to me.

What do you look for a potential date?

Here is what I look for:

Looks

Support for my career goals
Good sense of humor
Openness to try new things
Is very laid back, flexible
Sexual compatability

Compasson. Quirks and strange little details. Depth. Wisdom. Similar taste in music, film, etc. Easy for me to communicate with. Responsible. Honest, and unafraid to face the truth.

If I can't talk to them for more than 5 minutes, then there are some serrious problems.

You changed your hair.

at least 2 limbs
vital signs (sometimes optional)

Some people say I have very low standards. I wonder why they say that

But really, I look for people that have: similar intrests and choices in music, not stupid (you do not have to be a rocket scientist here, just not stupid), kind to others, accepting, not annoying in personality, and someone that will hold me and comfort me.

LOL...By the time I am mentally prepared to do the dating thing again I'll probably be 85....then the only requirement I'll have will be a simple one...

...breathing.

Seriously though...probably acceptance or at least some understanding...some intellect and the ability to laugh would also be nice. Must love yard sales and antiques or at least have a high tolerance of them.

:wink:
