Unless they'd rather be choosers than hook up frequently.

I'd say she has to be intelligent and attractive and have decent music taste. Those are the only requirements, but obviously I'd prefer someone unique and eccentric.

I don't hook up frequently.

Someone with goals and a general outlook on life that's similar enough to my own to not make a long-term relationship a constant struggle, but someone who's also different enough from me that we can challenge each other and not become bored over time.

Also, given my track record with misinterpreting people, I need someone who's open and direct in communicating. Expecting me to intuitively know what someone's thinking is a recipe for disaster!

I don't know...but had bad experiences with blondes (and large woman).

Hmmm.....someone who is accepting I guess...for now anyways.

In fact , it's biology , or it should be called biochemistry at least, I don't know why they call it "Chemistry".

It can mean even more than that as far as I know. Hormonal chemistry, chemistry of personality, I guess its really a more blanket term for pull than anything scientific. Chemistry of personality is really umbrella for someone having what works, whatever ratio of similarities and differences that make you both find each other's company and intimacy gainful. Its really the only set of guide posts you have.

That said if I meet someone where its all hormal and no substance - can't do anything with that (or at least I don't find it worth my while). If its all personality but not hormonal, we might make great friends but there's again not much room to move. Both is really optimal.

Has to be human

Has to be adult

Has to be from a different family

Has to be alive

Seriously though I can thin of loads, but then when I think to myself "would I reject an otherwise perfect-for-me girl just because of that one thing?" then I gotta say no, I wouldn't. If I met a girl who was awesome, then apart from the obvious ones above, I'd be with her regardless (assuming she wanted me that is lol)
