They have to like basements as much as I do
What
patience
Compassion.
Some of us need understanding from magnanimous people.
Ability to communicate and compromise when needed.
Empathy
Be able to have the patient to try to understand me and both of us look out for each other. Also, not being condescending but that is a bare minimum which sadly, not everyone follows. /:
Emotional maturity and financial responsibility
I want to be called out.
I love philosophy stuff and often I’ll start to form an opinion that’s a scientific or even problematic.
My lovely fiancé will often call out potentially shitty thoughts and I re-evaluate them.
The ability to kill a yak from 200 yards away
Isn’t this a physical trait though?
… with mind bullets!
You DO NOT want this. I made this mistake. I thought my partner could only do yaks. I was WRONG. I now have to stay 200 yards from them at all times or risk my own life.
You mean 201 yards away!
Oh no. I do. I hope my partner didn’t realize my mistake.
I chose my wife in large part for her honesty. It’s much easier to teach a brutally honest person to be more tactful than to teach a dishonest person to be honest.
willing to have calm debates and willingness to reevaluate ones stands on a matter.
This. We all grew up a certain way and like things a certain way. Lots of discontent can come from sharing a life with someone if you’re not will to reevaluate your new normal.
not be an abusive narcissist.
I’d appreciate that
Trust/Honesty
You can’t build anything lasting on lies.
Being able to listen, love, and not be a hostile feminist.
I think this excludes the latest generation, lol. But if you are a good woman in this generation, some guy will be very lucky.
Do you mean hostile sexism? I’m so confused because hostile feminism is like an oxymoron. What is hostile feminism to you? Do you mean post-feminism, sexism, 4th wave feminism, etc.?
You think the words hostile and feminist are contradicting eachother? How?
Feminism in a nutshell is about gender equality. Not much room for hostility in there.
