Heh....these kinds of threads crack me up because 80 percent say the same thing, which are things that are pretty much common sense with most people in the world such as being honest, faithful, etc. Why not talk about things that are unique above and beyond that...and I am sorry, anyone is kidding themselves when they say looks aren't important LOL
Well, if you want unique I will give you some things that are unique about what I would look for:

1) I would want someone who could sing. I like artists, and I am a singer. I think that singers are awesome to me.

2) Someone who likes sports. I mean, I like sports. I'd hate to have a girl who would hate for me to turn on the Basketball game on? Please, no talking during the game!

3) This is unique: How about someone who dances for no reason? Someone who would just go and do a dance for no reason. Feel no embarrassment for wanting to do a dance, even in public. Does not care about social norms like that.

4) Someone who looks good wearing glasses. Sorta attractive to see a girl who wears glasses for some reason.

Well, he is not 10 years more older than me. Less than that, that's fine. He has a fresh breath. He must be taller than me as I am too short. It's a good thing that he plays any instruments or he doesn't mind about my bad guitar and piano playing. He never minds about my size and he loves God more than he loves me :). And oh, he must read bible too as I'm not a good reader :)

What do I want in a mate? Priorities? (Sighs)These are smart and beautiful questions.Sometimes I looked at threads, like this, and consider the freedom we have to say, boast or dare to express ideas.How could I love God without loving what He gave me? How could I love Him without loving what He has done and what He has done in each, to lead us to the image of His only begotten son? How could I love me without loving others? (But I dislike some, of course: I´m not perfect).Priorities? Finding God in her image and in her identity: A body without God is wasting more time (to hurt myself).The rest is simple gain.

@Respect (respecfully) "he is not 10 years more older than me"

I, like many old and young people, think like this. A gap of more than 10 years does not match real mates. One could be "the dad" or "the mom" of the other and, as many I have seen, young people tend to change easily, they lack the experience of suffering or being hurt, and cheating comes too often. So I recommend my children not to date young girls or "grandparents".

In my case, I do consider social status and height: I don´t like women bigger than 5,4" (Otherwise I need a brick to kiss her forehead). He! He!

I´m glad that God gave many a 2nd and a 3rd chance: At matching pair, anything is a choice! And I have spoken to teens and people of 80 years old, and ALL have similar dreams and expectations.

When I consider her stature or weight, she may be thinking on my bank account.

While other think on TRUST, someone has bypassed if he/she was really committed to God, as a true believer.

These things are choices!

A woman that
i) raises the staff while am out on the battle field
ii) put me in my place with meekness
iii) who sees what the LORD has for me and can push me to that through much jibber jabber and praying
the One MY HEAVENLY FATHER says for me to have.

Mine is easy. I want a woman with a good set of legs. Not because I like nice legs, but because walking back and forth to the kitchen getting me my drinks while I watch Nascar is tiring. jk.

Honestly, I think a combination of all the previous posts sounds great. Loving, understanding, thoughtful, genuine, isn't afraid to voice her opinion, and willing to learn from each other. One last thing...being able to look at the stupid little arguments that we might have and laugh about how stupid we were acting. I don't like people that hold grudges.
