Do you believe that....

When it comes to the opposite (or same, depending your preference) sex, do you believe
that your standards for the person you want to spend the rest of your life with, too high?

edit: feel free to comment
 
On the contrary, if we are to take my current fiancee as an example, my standards are much too low. And yet, she still fails to live up to them.

what would you consider your standards to be?
 
Are my standards high? Sure. Are they too high? Nah. I want a good woman, not a second rate one.

One thing, and one thing only. To be able to, successfully, microwave Kraft macaroni that I prepared the day before. If you can't do that, what can you do? Anything else is icing.

she's not good friends with technology? (ie, microwave)
 
Smart, doesn't like wasting money on stupid stuff (most important), around 5'6", small butt, and a pretty face (big nose and googly eyes are ok). Is that too much to ask?

Those are getting harder and harder to find unfortunately.

I know that, but that doesn't mean you give up. I teach women how a man should treat them, but in turn teach them that they need to deserve it. It's a mutual relationship. Girl's can't expect much if they don't give much. Same with guys.
 
They were when I was younger, but as I grew older, I met real women and saw that it was possible to meet most of my expectations if I was realistic, patient, and chose carefully. Also, as you get older, your expectations change a bit (ie, you start out looking for someone you have everything in common with, and finally realize "why the &%$# would I want to be with someone like me?"). So you end up looking for things that are novelties when you're younger, like responsibility, honesty, maturity, and stability...but still with a great rack, of course. 🙂
 
no, my standards aren't too high or too low. i keep them middle of the road by going for someone the equivalent of myself.
 
I think they are too high since I havent found even one person yet for whom I could say this would be a good life partner.
