I agree ; -)
Passion for something. It′s such a turnoff when you are talking to somebody and they aren’t interested in anything.
Current events? Meh. Books? Meh. Films/Shows? Meh.
I don’t care if it’s stamp collecting or chewing gum flavors or the history of wallpaper design, just be passionate or interested in something. At least we can converse for while on that topic.

Lol! Everything in moderation I suppose. But at least if I had that interaction with somebody, I would have an interesting story to tell people haha.
I’m actually pretty enthusiastic about psyllium husk supplements so you have my attention!
It’s from China. Wallpaper I mean.
Yes I looked it up. Your joke made me cry.
Curiosity for things
Yep, even if someone doesn’t know something it’s perfect if they’re open to learning more :)
They don’t have to be interested in every topic, it’s the openness that goes a long way
Intelligence
I so feel this. Whenever someone has a smart niche, whether it’s just reading a lot or being skilled at something like maths, they become sooo much more attractive to me
To borrow the new age term, an old soul.
There are just people who possess a sort of cynically detached understanding of the world and people. They aren’t fired by largely pointless passion or desire, they’re intelligent and perceptive enough to generally understand things and emotionally mature enough to generally accept them and they have a way of just sort of gliding through life, maintaining a relatively even keel instead of getting distracted and disconcerted by irrelevancies.
Every single person I’ve ever known who was like that has been or is special to me.
I love your way of describing it, more than anything else!
Authorship of open-source GPU drivers.
Ah. The dream wife of all geeks
Having an interest in sharing something with you without making you feel stupid about it.
Went to about art museum with a guy, and he was super excited to tell me about certain pieces and artists and their history. He was very kind when I asked questions about things that were probably very obvious to a more studious person.
Was on his arm by the end of the date. Absolutely smitten!
Is his other arm available?
We broke up eventually and haven’t talked in years, unfortunately. So… maybe!
Can make smart and educated jokes. Will laugh at fart jokes.
Empathy and I can’t find a single word to describe it but being able to understand and recognize other sides of opinions or arguments/debates, respectfully of course
Sense of humor
I married my wife because she was the first person to teach me to laugh at myself.
First thing I thought of.
A rich family.
General open-mindedness/respect/mindfullness.
Yes mindfulness. Self awareness.
Someone who doesn’t impose their will, beliefs, or anything else on another person.
My ex wife worked very hard at changing me, until I barely recognised who I was. My now wife let me be myself again, and I will forever lover her for that.
Emotional Maturity + sincerity + charisma is a winning combo
A good personality.
Its the single most important characteristic someone needs to have.
I like to imagine the people downvoting this are vapid, miserable assholes who are angry because every relationship they’ve ever had has failed, in flames, because their now ex partners told them they have awful personalities.
good personality
uses most of the words in the comment to wish everyone who downvotes a terrible and miserable life
Oh, we’re inventing narratives now? How very redditor of you.
Sorry, I don’t know what you mean by that, I just wanted to tell you in a humorous that for me your comment doesn’t come across in the way you maybe wanted it to. To be more explicit given the topic, it sounds like you are making negative assumptions about others. Many people will perceive that as unattractive.
Caring about people downvoting your comment is very Redditor of you too.
