I was recently talking to a women older than me and she discussed her divorce with me. With this she then went into asking me about my previous relationships and asked if the guy had acted certain ways. She seemed amazed that I responded with, "no", for a lot of the questions. Then, we went on to talking about what I should keep my eyes open for in a guy.

Date a guy who...

Says good morning and goodnight.

Even if you fell asleep on him, if he wakes up before you and he texts you good morning to let you know you're on his mind then keep him around.

Says to you, "drive safe."

He wants to show you that he cares whether or not you get from "point A" to "point B" safely.

Loves his mom or if he's family oriented.

If he loves his mom then he most likely knows how to treat a girl he really cares for and loves. If he's family oriented, then that means he probably wants a family of his own one day and will be a good father, hopefully.

Trusts you.

He lets you be when you're with the girls and says, "have fun." Or even if you have guy friends, he won't ask a million questions about them.

Likes/loves you for who you are and not what you have.

He values you as a person and not the things you have. If he values who you are then he will deserve everything you have to offer him, physically and emotionally.

Sings with you or to you.

This shows he's confident and doesn't care how bad he may sound, as long as it puts a smile on your face.

Reminds you how special you are.

Whether it be compliments or just asking how you are, it shows you mean something special to him.

Isn't embarrassed of you.

If he's embarrassed of you and who you are, then forget him. Be with someone who isn't embarrassed of you either at your good, happy, sad, or mad times.

Shares similar interests.

You don't need to have everything in common because that's how you try new things, but have some things in common so then you're not always butting heads.

Sees you in his future.

Does he talk about his future? Does he include you in it? If so then he plans to be with you long term and isn't a "just for now guy."

If this doesn't relate to him at all, then tell him bye and off to the next. This is some of the best advice I've ever taken in.
