Ever lasting/Ever fading love!?

[sad_eyes]

What drives you to make a relationship you are in last? What qualities (NOTHING PHYSICAL) can a woman/man possess in order to retain you from jumping on the nearest boat and sailing away from him or her?

Good grief and the list goes on....

[sad_eyes]

Not very picky, are you?

Not very picky, are you?

This list is known as the 76 commandments (of Love) that the Gods have communicated to me.

According to the Gods, a large number of commandments reduces the chances that women are viewed and appreciated through a small and narrow number of attributes that may oversimplify, impoverish and distort their heavenly essence!

[LadySilver]

Ya ok your still picky =)

[Siamanto]

Ya ok your still picky =)

Because I'm not a sinner like you. I follow religiously the 76 Commandments!

I like the list, or more correctly, your model of a perfect match, but as the complexity of a model grows, it often becomes very hard to prove the validity of such model. In the simplest case this could be due to possible increase in disparities and inconsistancies of it. For example, "Not feminist" and "Defends her rights" could be seen as a bit contradicting. Another problem with blown out models is the repetition and duplication.

God, I'm such a nerd.

For myself, I'd rather feel than qualify. The perfect romantic match for me is a best friend [a person you'd never want to leave because you'd miss her presence too much] that you'd also like to get naked.

hehehe, the above is the most realistic one yet.
