what qualities do men search in woman and woman search in man?

I guess it's different for every person. For me, as far as looks go, the first thing I notice is eyes and hair, they are the sexiest part of a lady. As far as the rest goes, I like someone who thinks for themselves. Someone who has a well formed opinion about things. Conversation is important to me. I also want someone who can love me for what I am and in spite of what I'm not. Someone who accepts me for me. I want to know that I am the only man who matters to her. I also like someone who can carry themselves like a lady. A bit of grace is nice.

I think one of the most important things is to be sincere with the person you're with. Honesty is an essential requirement in any relationship. It's important that you communicate your true feelings. Holding things in or hiding your feelings will only lead to frustrations and eventually unnecessary confrontations. It's also nice to have someone by your side who is supportive, gives you good advice, makes you smile, laughs at you're jokes, listens to what you say and hugs you at least once a day.

hi calenduli- well when i was looking for a relationship other then just a friend i looked for alot of things in a person. first they had to be caring, really funny, able to listen, good with kids and animals, they had to be mature but still fun to be with, they had to be nice to other people, and had to be able to really hold a conversation with me. now looks were not taht important to me. now there still had to be some actraction but it could be as simple as nice eyes. i didnt worry about the looks that much after you know a person everyone can think they are the ugliest ever but when you know them and they are the type of person that the personality shines through you see them in a differnt light. there inside becomes part of the outside and to you they are very good looking. the best thing in a relationship is never judge a book by its cover. sometimes if we close our eyes and just listen, feel, and open our hearts you can find very specail people in your life that have been friends forever and you dont relize how great they truely are.

I prefer some basic qualities. The first quality is his/her ability to love. A person cannot love anyone... because they are incomplete. i prefer more complete man/woman. Second is his ability to change according to the situation's demand. this does not include changing against partner, but for the shake of love. other qualities are as listed by the others.
