You're the ONE (that I want)

I may not come across as the type to day dream about Mr. Right, but like the majority of the female species, I also have painted the picture of my ideal guy. I am not looking for Mr. Perfect. Nor am I looking for someone to sweep me off my feet to a happily ever after. I am, however, looking for someone that compliments my personality - someone that is like me in ways that will make the relationship work yet different enough that will make the relationship interesting. And after a time of not looking at all (or refusing to look), I am finally ready to meet the guy. So who is he?

1) The awkwardly charming Chinese look:
Yes, from a physical standpoint, I have a type. I don't go for the hottest guys around. I am into Chinese looking men with boyish charms - lanky, awkward and seemingly shy. Kindly see peg below (too bad, he's taken)

2) He is Smart
 He doesn't have to have a collection of medals to show for. He does have to be knowledgeable about current events, be it politics or showbiz. We just have to be able to talk about different topics.

 3) He has to Speak Well
 Not only does he have to get his subject-verb agreement right, he has to be able to carry a conversation   well.

4) He has to be Successful in his career and is passionate about what he does
A guy who is passionate about what he does is just so sexy

5) He has to be Quietly Confident
I can only tolerate arrogance so much. But I do want to be with someone confident and self-aware, someone who does not get intimidated by my personality. It's a partnership, not a powerplay. That and confidence is just so sexy.

6) He has to Love the People that I Love
I want to be with  a guy who sincerely loves my family and friends, not endure them because he's with me.

7) He has to be Patient
I am not the most patient. I get irritated easily. So I need someone whose patience doesn't dry up easily or else we're going to explode.

8) He has to Love Traveling
I want to be able to see the world with him and go home together.

9) He has to have his values intact
We don't have to have the same set of values. But I do want someone who believes in his morals and stand by them.

10) He has to Respect Everyone
I can never be with  bigot who selectively respects people.

11) He has to be Funny
I love a guy who can make me laugh.

12) He has to be Sweet
I don't need grand gestures. I don't need the big ROMANCE. I do need someone who will hold my hands and hug me after a hard day's work. I need someone who will curl up by my side on a lazy Sunday afternoon. I need someone to tell me I'm pretty when I'm feeling anything but. I need someone to tell me he loves me just because he feels like saying so.

13) He has to be Committed
It can't be a short-term thing. If we're going to be together, he has to be there for the long haul.
