And never settle, where character is concerned. Nobody is ever going to fulfill anyone else's perfect list of requirements, most of the things we say we want won't matter when the right one comes along. But character always matters. What drives him, what makes him mad, what frightens him, how does he handle fear and anger, what besides himself does he live for. Who is he when there is no one there to see. TRUER WORDS WERE NEVER SPOKEN!!! I would also add that how he treats children, old people and animals are a good indicator of character.
