The three that I'm lacking and/or clearly not interested in developing are:
1) Good cook
My major (Tourism and International business administration) already has two business cooking courses towards almost the ending of the 3rd year. That's the only cooking I'm interested in, not the traditional one where I have to stay at home and cook for him every day. I'm currently low average in that area and only know the basic surviving skills but no where close to expert level.
2) Motherly instinct and always wanted kids
At the age of 26, I still don't have urges nor desires towards reproducing. I would have a tubal ligation without any hesitation if I could.
3) Likes decorating the house
I'm a terrible home designer and like to keep things simple (no ridiculous fake flowers nor over elaborations).
Since I don't possess any of these qualities, I have a feeling it's going to take me a while to find that one that will want to settle with me child-free. It would be awesome if he likes traveling and learning new cultures too. I already have some people, even my parents telling me either I'm going to end up single or it's going to be very hard for me finding him.
What do you all think? I'm I seriously lacking the most important qualities most men (besides not having a promiscuous past, which I don't...I've only slept with 1 man who was my bf at the time) look for when considering marrying a woman? Or can my other qualities still overlook the ones I'm lacking?
I don't think you should have any problem finding a man based on not cooking, not wanting kids, or not decorating. I, for example, don't care about whether you can cook or decorate and like many men, I'd rather not have kids.
BTW I added a poll. Don't be afraid to scare the truth. I just want to see if I'm really lacking the qualities that most men would consider a woman marriage material, not just a gf he dates for endless year.
Or he'll the one still be ok with my other qualities?
if you treat a guy nice, have frequent sex, and service him the way he likes it, you're a keeper. everything is window dressing
Sure but I'm not moving in with him. I don't want to end up in the ''forever gf'' status. I've heard and read about stories, in which many women confused moving in for ''a step towards engagement'' and end up waiting 4+ years for him to propose.

This. OP, you have nothing to worry about. There are lots of men who don't want kids, and don't care if their SO can cook or decorate. There are so many more important things in life, and to being a couple. The 1950's are long over.
