I recognize that there is no such thing as the ideal woman or man. The absence of perfection is the one quality we all have in common and in the right person, it can also be the thing that captures our hearts. I feel that passion, honesty & mutual respect are essential to any lasting relationship. For me a compatible intellect is important, but even more important is a desire to grow, explore and an underlying faith in what is possible with the right person at your side.
