What do you really value in a person?

The thread about repulsiviness gave me the idea to do this one. I think beauty is over-value.
I´d like you were as sincere as possible. This is not a misses competition.

I personally value in another person a good sense of humor, friendly and sincerity.
What about you?

I value more than anything loyalty and being trustworthy, and outgoing. If they are outgoing, they often draw attention away from me and onto them .

As a guy, I'll be perfectly honest. Personality does matter a lot, but there are some woman out there who I just would never have romantic thoughts for, personality disregarded. I'm sure that sounds harsh, but it's just the blunt truth. But this really only goes for woman at the far bottom of the barrel, especially from my standpoint. Out of 10, I'd give myself about a .5, thus I dont think I could ever get anything over a 2...so yea...I'm kinda screwed lol.

With that out of the way though, the perfect woman to me would be : Smart, cute, shy but socially warm, introspective/deep thinking, down for anything but also content watching a movie inside, slightly kinky, optimistic and cheerfull, and most of all, loves me for me.

As for people in general : Intellectuality, modesty, and being 'abnormal' or eccentric in certain ways (eg maynard james keenan) are all attributes I can respect in a person.

I have to be honest, I do value looks first and foremost in regards to GF material. There's no point being with someone if you're not attracted to them.

However, I like someone who shares similar interests to myself,but will speak their mind and trust is another important factor.

It can depend on what KIND of friend. If it is just a regular friend then the personality traits of inteligence, humor, tolerance and empathy are most important. For a close romatic relationship I would also need someone who is fit and takes care of herself. So many people don't do that. I stay fit as best I can even with some bad physical problems.

Word. That and loyalty, nothing pisses me off more than a guy who has trouble not humping everything that moves or doesn't for that matter.

Why not just date an ugly repulsoid who couldn't get another woman to even look at him?

Did you miss the first part?

Right now, I find someone who can be accepting and patient with me to be essential. Being somewhat extroverted is actually a plus as I have a hard time bringing up topics and choosing activities on my own. I'm fairly flexible and responsive, maybe even engaging (but I won't actually allow myself to think that), just don't know what to initiate when

I value understanding & hardship's endured
