Are your dating standards too high or too low?

[Scandia]

DSTChaos- well, I can assure you that in my case, it has NOT happened again. Everyone else since then has been good or at least decent. None of them may have been the one for me, but I cannot think of any of them that had anything horrendously and pathologically wrong with them.

Most unrealistically high standard- some of the stuff I have read on magazines that have made people lose interest. Such as "he wore white socks with black pants and black loafers". Or "he has to make a six figure income".

Regarding my standards:

- respectful and kind (ie- NOT being abusive)
- faithful (ie- NOT being adulterous)
- financially responsible
- intelligent and ambitious (and has at least some sort of post-secondary education)
- has interests in common with me, as well as some individual ones
- shares my moral and spiritual values
- healthy and has good hygiene and dresses well
- belongs to an ethnic group that I feel comfortable with and attracted to (PLEASE do not flame me for this one)
- is creative and imaginative
