Which trait would you prefer in a potential boyfriend or partner? Would you prefer that your potential partner have a sense of humor, charm or good looks? Assume that you could only pick one trait?

I prefer my spouse is responsible, considerate and diligent.

Those are very noble traits. I am happy that you brought them up. A partner without a responsible or considerate spirit is not going to work for the long term. Be well, my friend. Thanks for dropping by. Hope to chat with you soon.

I would prefer my partner to have a sense of humor. Charm doesn't matter much to me, and looks have never really been a big concern, either. The sense of humor is the most important trait, I think.

In an ideal world I'd like to choose all three but if I have to choose then I would choose charming but it would have to be sincere. Good loods can always fade, someone with good looks can be rather vain and be fighting you to use the mirror all the time LOL! A sense of humour is all very well and is important BUT someone who's funny all the time can get rather annoying. Nope, I would stick to the guy with the charm as he can make you feel the most special out of those three traits :)

They would definitely have to have a sense of humour! Good looks fade, charm often wears thin but being able to make each other laugh is something that keeps a relationship strong and of course fun! xxx

I choose a charming boyfriend...not necessarily handsome, but someone who can take your breath away because he charms you with his smile, with the warmth of his touch, and mesmerizes you with his kisses! He, he, he. There are men who are good boyfriend materials, but the one who has charm and exudes warmth will more likely attract me.

That's hard... only one? Then I'll have to go with charming. I think if he really is charming that includes (or makes up for) some of the other traits. Anyway, my boyfriend is sweet, charming, and HOT as well. (Not so much for a sense of humour, though, but at least he's not grumpy!!) =)

If I could pick only one (although I'm visually oriented), I'd have to say sense of humor. Anyone who can make me laugh has a much better chance in the long run...

This is an easy one for me. I have to have a guy with a sense of humor. He's gotta make me laugh and he has to be able to handle getting teased. I am drawn to the guys that have a sense of humor and will tease and love to be teased.:)
