At first, a good sense of humor, and willingness to have a conversation. Later on, a sense of self-worth, curiosity, a willingness to challenge me and to be challenged. Basically, the longer we date, the higher the bar gets. I hope the same applies for me.

I’ve been married over 10 years though, so we’re pretty far on that path! Still pushing each other, though. And we still make each other laugh.
