Maybe his patience. And his sweetness.


He has been responsible for every one of the top 1000 funniest things I've ever heard. It's often really intelligent humor, too, but most of the time it's just pants-splittingly hilarious. He'll also go out of his way to be kind to animals - like carefully guiding a tarantula out of the house rather than killing it.

As for me, I am *fantastic* at making spreadsheets. That's a character trait, right?
It's true. I've never seen a human format a cell so hard like it was her prison bitch than I have with her. Oddly, that's not the trait I admire most. The compassion and genuine human decency I've seen pour from her cold, black heart is inspiring. I truly admire her ability to look for the good that each person might have inside them and try to connect with that. If she can't find it, she crushes that person. I like that, too. I like my sense of humor (except the inappropriate parts of it that tends to be louder in crowds) and my ability to read almost anyone in an instant, then bend their will to my own.

Organization because I'm not organized... Mine is sanitary cleanliness


Her traits: Her eagerness to walk right into the middle of a room full of people, her pansexuality and her love of fashion.
My traits: ....er....wait, let me think.....I need a serious overhaul for next Life.


His sense of humor. I'm amazed by his quick wit. He always has me laughing...and everyone else too!


His strength and faith! The ability to have faith in the sight unseen.



Her patience with me. No matter how weird, awkward or silly I am; she never gives up on me. Mine is my sense of humor 😋


His outgoing and charming ways with people! I just love watching my husband interact with a group and laugh and entertain! He is so much fun to be with!! As for me, I would say the thing I like most about my own personality is being innovative and creative.


Compassionate. He listens and then makes the whole world seem better.


Her brutal honest, actually! She has the guts to tell me things I may not like or want to hear sometimes. I wish I had that kinda guts! Plus passion in everything that interests her! To feel so deeply about everything she loves, just wow. As for me, I dunno... understanding? My close friends come to me for advice or solace sometimes, and 9/10 times I can help them, even if it's just helping them get over something.


The fact that she's quirky and she's not afraid to be herself either which is something that I really enjoy. There's not really to much I enjoy about myself but to tell you the truth I'm glad I'm my own worst critic.


Him: His intelligence, his spirituality, his love of the feminine energy, his open-mindedness, the way people fall in love with him when they meet him...
me: my good taste in men ;)


There are so many things that I admire about you, but I really admire your determination for standing up for what you believe is right :)


Her honesty... She will tell you like it is... She don't put up with anything she don't like.. she loves to talk crap and joke around I love that about her..


I love how she laughs at everything, and when the joke is so funny,she will sit there and laugh for minutes!. Seeing her happy makes me really happy and I get the butterflies.
