No way can I choose just one most important thing. Honesty is extremely important to me, as are intelligence, sense of humor, personality. Tangible things are way down on my list.

Chemistry is the #1 most important thing.

If that exists, THEN you look at what else he has to offer, though most want a combination package of attributes, not any one other thing.

It's the total package that I look for. I can't really break my husband down into listable traits and then decide which one was the most important reason that I fell in love with him. And to be perfectly honest - if you had showed him to me as a list on a piece of paper - I probably wouldn't have thought he was the one for me. He makes me laugh. He gets me. He believes in me. I trust him. I can tell him anything. I find him sexy. There's no better place on earth than in his arms. Like I said - it's the total package.

I think that it is a combination of personality, looks, hygiene, amount of money and how physically strong or fit he is but I don't really know since I'm NOT a woman.

Some women may care more about compatibility though like compatibility in personality or compatability in culture and religion.

I agree, it's chemistry. But chemistry does not mean your relationship will work out. That's where other traits come into play. Dewdrop, sounds like you have it made!

My first thought was "personality", but in the end it's a combination (for me at least). The guy may be the nicest person but if he's smelly or if he looks like Jabba the Hut, there is no way to make it work. And intelligence is a must.

All I can say for sure is that the things that matter most to women are things I don't have ...

For example, I have no personality, and no money ... and those are 2 of the big winners so far.

Why answer when we are only going to get some of the guys pontificate on how we only want money and hot looks.

Op, I wish it was an open poll. I'd like to see which two guys voted for the money option.
