As inspired by layitlarge

A list of qualities I'd like in a long-term partner, in no particular order and probably missing a few things.

Someone who :
Understands my family.
Is intelligent.
Shares similar academic/cultural references (yes, this is snobby, but I’m going to end up a professional academic and I’d like my rambling to make sense to somebody.)
Has a sense of humor.
Has integrity.
Has their own life and friends, and knows how to give me space for mine.
Knows how to fight/argue productively instead of letting things build up.
Is communicative, lets me know where and how they are emotionally (see above).
Understands when I need to be reassured about stupid things re : disability.
Is as silly as I am, and as intense.
« Complements », rather than « completes ». In knowledge, in bed, in whatever.
Loves my quirks and lets me love theirs.
Knows how to take a deep breath and laugh at life.

In other news: Good lord, Daisy. You make me insane.
