Just stopping by from a friend's (Jaym's) page and I'm curious...

What do you mean impresses your family by being perfect? Do you want a type of guy your parents thought of with a similar list around the time you were born? Or do you want someone who makes you happy in a way that makes them take note, and approve of how special he makes you feel?

Sorry for pressing. I've just honestly never heard of a girl who lists something like that as a must for love.

you were dead on with the second guess. my parents just want me to be happy, and i have had nothing but loser after loser. a boy would impress my family who is well-spoken and well-read, who loves me and treats me well, who isn't a burnout.

my parents did not make lists of qualities they want me to have in a man.

a boy i think is perfect is also someone my parents would think is perfect. hence impressing them by being perfect (for me) and having all of the qualities i desire.

does that work at all? or was i just babbling.

That's not babbling. It was actually a real good answer. Sounds like you've got love figured out better than alot of people I know.

Tons of people out there, why settle for someone you don't want?

i think a lot of people just want to date someone right now, and think that it's realistic to find the most perfect person in the world for them by the time they're 20. maybe it happens for some, but i know too many people my age who are in mediocre relationships, calling it love because they want something like that.

in saying this i'm not denying that i was in love, but it certainly wasn't perfect love, certainly not what i'm holding out for now.

settling for less than the epitome of what someone wants is silly. there's no need.
