That's not a bad idea...

"Listen hear son...these things, they'll end your life...I pull this trigger, and 'bam' you're dead. Now, before having sex, you must get the approval of someone who in all honesty wants to pull that trigger, just for asking for that approval. Should you not seek his approval, and should things get out of hand, do not be surprised if that person shows up in your life just to end it....

Beyond that, you should love her.... preferably having announced that to the world in a ceremony women refer to as 'marriage', and us men as 'domestic prison'...."

My wife's mine.

I didn't know I had an 'ideal' with regards to a partner but it found me anyhow, I certainly didn't go looking for it.

No but they did tell me that people who didn't marry the other parent are not people they would accept as in laws. My parents have been married 45 years.

That's great that you have such a awesome wife so what makes her your ideal partner?

It is not human to be ideal or perfect. As such, its pointless to dream of a perfect mate, since they dont exist. Hypergamy is destructive.

I find this to be absolutely true. DH has lots of traits I didn't know I wanted.... but now can't imagine NOT having them.

That's good, because your parents wouldn't have to accept them. They wouldn't *be* your parents' in-laws, because you wouldn't be married to them.

So I didn't mean perfect for everyone just perfect for you is what I mean not even perfect maybe ideal or dream I'm not asking anyone to be Hypergamy I'm just asking what is there opinion on what they like in a mate. it's not that big of a deal there's no right or wrong answers.

My wife is about as ideal a match as I could hope for. I went looking for someone with the characteristics she has, but she also had many more great things about her that I had not considered. Of course, what I was looking for was the minimum necessary for me - which many people may consider delusional! She even matched most of my "bonus" items.
