Well, according to some men on this forum, a man is a keeper if he is verbally and physically abusive, relegates me to the kitchen and bedroom, has at least one prison sentence under his belt, is either a murderer, rapist, or pedophile, and treats women like ultimate crap.
But that's just what a little birdie told me.
Me? A guy is a keeper if I can look up to him (admiration and respect, not height), if there is a mutual attraction, if we want similar things out of life, if he treats me kindly and tenderly, and if he can stimulate me in a variety of ways (mentally!! you perverts! ). Sure, there are a bunch of other factors, but I'm not writing you a detailed list!

That's a tough question. MY idea of a keeper is someone who is family oriented, grew up in a pretty normal environment with good and responsible parents.
Someone who is educated, a hard worker, can put up with me (LOL), goal oriented but still knows how to have fun. Can save money, pays bills on time, is generally responsible. Clean cut, non-smnoker, social drinker ok but not someone who drinks daily, a good listener or at least able to pretend he's listening (men just don't usually know how LOL), someone handy (can't be calling repair companies for everything) and overall a guy who doesn't NEED a woman but loves to be in a relationship. Someone who isn't clingy. That about covers it for me. So basically that is exactly what I got, an ex boy scout who has a good education, great paying job, super handy (he fixes everything), smart, funny, responsible but rides the new Harley we just got last year LOL
For me the man has to be genuine in the sense that when he does things for you, whether it's big or small, his heart has to be in the right place. He doesn't do things out of obligation, instead he does things for you because he just wants to. He has to be funny and know how to poke fun at himself...and others too. He still has to have a sense of chivalry about him--meaning he still opens doors for you, stands up when you and return back to the table when you're out to dinner. Fun and adventurous -- girls need a guy to not be a wet blanket all the time. He needs to be fun, not all the time, but be open to fun. Nothing wrong with a homebody, but someone who likes to take a risk now and then. A guy who loves animals goes a long way with me, except the kinds of guys who "love" animals if you knwo what I mean? Oh, there's an exhaustive list of qualitites that make a man a keeper, but probably not enough room or enough posting space to list.
