One big thing for me is humor. I like people who have the same sense of humor as me, I want to be able to crack jokes with someone who can appreciate my humor. I also want to be with someone who I inspire and someone who inspires me. I really enjoy partners I can rely on, or who also feel like they can rely on me, but we can both be independent at times. I need space to think, I'm someone who enjoys solitude at times. I don't mind different interests, but I would at least like some common ground with music, art, shows, etc. Physically I'm interested in a range of people. I appreciate diversity. I would also like someone who is kind of active, who's willing to hike with me or go walking or actually go and do something with me rather than being inside all the time. Or just wants to go see a movie. At this point, I really just want to be able to spend time with someone and connect with them and be able to travel and share interests. I'm not actively looking or anything, whatever comes will come--but I am looking forward to being able to have a best friend and a lover in the future.
