Someone who can hold a conversation. That's very important. Because I talk a lot, but I don't want to be the only one talking. There has to be dialogue, not monologue. My biggest pet peeves are being told what to do, being interrupted, and being touched by random dirty people on the street. Not that someone I meet is going to have a lot to do with dirty people on the street, unless they're one of them, but I just thought I'd mention that. It's important that, if you talk to me online, you can spell and use punctuation. Otherwise, translating will become too much work for me and I'll give up on you and watch TV instead. Also, someone with a good sense of humor, because I'm joking around constantly and if I don't get a good hearty response every single time, it'll simply prove to me that my life is a total failure and I'll have to go throw myself off the Zakim bridge. Or failing that, eat a pint of Ben and Jerry's Half Baked ice cream in half an hour. Either way, it won't be a pretty sight.
