Someone who knows the difference between "your" and "you're", and "their", "there", and "they're".
Someone who is honest. (Have I mentioned that I value honesty?)
Someone who has a good sense of humor.
Someone who can make me feel.
Someone who can make me think.
Someone who can argue with me.
Someone who has good taste and whose opinion I can respect.
Someone who can teach me something and still wants to learn something from me.
Someone who knows how to have a good conversation.
Someone who understands that any good relationship, whether it be friends, lovers, or otherwise, requires some work and effort on their part.
Someone who thinks I'm actually worth that effort.
Someone who is worth a damn.
Someone who means something.
Someone who, after reading all this, can find it in themselves to take a chance and actually say hello.
Do not send me friend requests when you haven't tried contacting me through messages first. When I receive those requests it just leaves me wondering who the hell you are, why you didn't try conversing with me, and why you would want to add someone you've never spoken to. Then I promptly ignore the request. I am not here to add to your friend count. I am not a number, I am a free man. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered. My life is my own.
