Thank you for the advice, but I've already been burnt a few too many times. 
Anyway, this is the approach I'm considering for myself...

Would recognize a nibble if you got one?

Oh yes. In fact one of my other problems is that I get overly excited and attached whenever I sense a nibble. Then I spend all my time thinking about that person and trying to get to know them better.. Only to find out that it wasn't a nibble after all.
In my case, at least, I have been placing too much importance in potentially being rejected or at least not accepted. As if they are commenting on me as a person and not just they are not interested. Therapy has been helping a ton with this.

Hey Everyone,
I have to admit. Cinder knows me all too well (and has been here a while as well) -- she knew exactly what I had planned as a sequel to the "Huge Honkin' List" of things we're looking for in a future spouse.
True confession: many of these thread ideas are not new at all, but get recycled many times over the years. However, the CC crowd changes all the time, so it's always interesting to reindroduce popular thread topics to entirely new audiences with a whole new crop of insights.
So, without further ado...
* What things/characteristics/qualities do you have to offer the kind of partner you are looking for?
* Would you say that your list of things to offer is just as long, or longer, than the list of things you're looking for in someone else?
* Do you anticipate any problems if two people are bringing lists of qualities/wants into a relationship that are unequal? (In other words, would having a long list of wants, but a short list of things to offer, mean that these two people would be unequally yoked?)
I think the topic of what people are looking for in someone is asked all the time... So it seems like an interesting way to balance it out is to talk about what people feel they can give to someone in return.
Thanks very much for sharing, and we'll be looking forward to hearing your thoughts and answers!
