DOND: Has an occasional rebell against authority streak. Depends. Rebelling just to rebell is usually not indicative of a mature person. Rebelling because of one's very firmly held prinicples, on the other hand, shows a depth of passion that deserving of respect.
And John . . . just to clarify my last question . . . NOT pliable with her / his opinions; but rather realizing that things aren't always what they appear to be on the surface and realizing that each side of any particular issue should at least be intelligently explored so as to be able to allow one to reach their own decision. "That" kind of nothing is black and white thinking. Clear as mud?
DEFINITELY -or- NOT IN A MILLION YEARS: He / she has very opposite political opinions than you do.

DOND: You don't get along with his/her parents. Hmmm . . . Do you mean that they greatly annoy me and wear on my nerves -OR- They outwardly don't like me? Either way, it would not be a reason for me to not have a relationship with their son.
If the first option, I could endure being annoyed. If the second option . . . well, whether they like me or not is really not my business.
And also, either way, I would endeavor to treat them kindly and with respect.
OK -or- NOT: He / she doesn't have any family relationships.

As long as it's not used for the morning alarm, hey... fine with me. Stick in your earbuds, crank up your iPod, and have at it. Just don't subject me to it.

I do like to go to festivals focusing on specifc eras and dress in period costumes. Technically, in this regard, I've only been to a couple of mountain-man rendezvous. I really want to go to some Reniassance festivals though.

DOND: Someone with a mental illness (i.e bipolar)
No deal. I can't do mental illness yet. While M died of a seizure she struggled with a drug induced mental illness for the last two years of her life. Mental illness is the cruellest form of illness. If your spouse is dying of cancer at least they are still there (they may be in horrendous pain but they still know you and you can try to help them.) In some mental illnesses you can see the torment they are going through but you can do nothing to help them.

I've ended dates before the dessert for that. Marrying someone who supports infanticide and sexual perversion is so not going to happen. I try not to associate with those people at all.

greatly depends on which ones. Some are relatively trivial, others are cricuially important.
quote:
DOND: You don't get along with his/her parents.
Probably no deal. When you marry someone you marry their family also. (Unless they also do not get along wiht their parents and have disowned them)

sad but deal.

nothing like a little Frankie Yankovich or Fritz the Plumber to get the day going. Deal.

Greatly depends on the fan convention. Star trek. OK. Desperate housewives. No.

No deal. don't mess with the beauty of the polka music.

Deal. I've found that there are many things about women that men are genetically prevented from understanding. I'd just mark this as one of them.
DOND: While they are friendly to everyone, they have very few friends

Take. I'm a night owl - I hit the snooze button a couple of times and don't like to get out of bed in the morning, but I have trouble putting things down at night, and crawl into bed when I can't stay awake any longer. This could work quite well, actually, because it'll give me my "quiet time" in the evenings.
quote:
DOND: While they are friendly to everyone, they have very few friends
Deal. Some people are more comfortable with a small group of friends. It doesn't mean they're unfriendly or that they're not attracting people as friends. I know that I'm friendly with a lot of people but have just a small group of people I call close friends.
Keep or Release: They have periods of time where they need to be alone to process a difficult emotion before they can talk about it with others.

Deal- I think that's pretty normal for a lot of guys. The thing is- a lot of women don't understand that, and they push or pressure guys into sharing their feelings. In the book, Men are From Mars, Women are From Venus the author describes that a lot of guys need what he calls "Cave Time" or time to withdraw into themselves, and that the smartest thing a woman can do is to jsut give the guy his space at those times.
Deal or No Deal- The prospective mate works in a profession where they have to work weekends and are also sometimes called into work unexpectedly or without much warning.

Deal. As long as they eventually get back to me on it. One thing they cannot do is just storm out for a drive or something. (Worries me like you wouldn't believe) Telling me they are going to go drive and think is OK

DOND...Sometimes they are clueless.....(I had no idea DOND was brought back to life )
clueless can be cute at times. As long as they have a clue about the important stuff then being clueless on teh rest is a deal.

This one is a little tougher. Since I still want more children I'd also like her to be a stay at home mom at least until the children are in school (assuming we don't homeschool). So if she knows that family comes before career, then deal. If she doesn't recognize that, no deal.
DOND: They don't eat most vegetables
