A girl who-

-Likes to argue
-Isn't in our relationship due to lust
-Likes good music (a bonus)
-Compassion, kindness
-Intelligence (I can't tell you how many stupid people I've met in my life...)
-Active (I like to go places and get the most of the world)
-Outgoing
-Will have meaningless conversations

Good looking is a bonus, but as sure as hell not needed.

An element of lust is always present at the beginning stages of any relationship. What you don’t want is for that to be the sole reason for being together.

Like to argue?
You really like to fight with your girlfriend?
And no lust?
You want a platonic romantic relationship?

To each their own.

Exactly.

I like to argue, I probably should have said debate but essentially, yes?

But as Tsuki said, I don't want it to be the foundation of the relationship. Not platonic though.

I guess I'm not communicating to well today. :shock:

Also if its not obvious, I'm sort of lacking in this department. Never had a partner.

As I've stated in this thread, a lot of my desire for a romantic partner is to have someone to organize my personal life, because I often neglect it.

Whether its keeping reservations or basically just handling the "drama" side of things. Basically someone who keeps a lid on things while I focus on work/hobbies.

I mean, that's very practical, but I feel like romance should not be quite that practical.

Of course, hence why I also included "will hang out with me" (will also throw in fucking as well), as if there is no intimacy then I'd be better off just hiring a secretary.

So you want a fuckbuddy who does your taxes for you?

You know you could just pay someone to do that, right?

No, I handle my own business already pretty well. I want a fuckbuddy to manage my social life (organize the parties, the gatherings, the vacations, the clubs, etc.) and also be a suitable mother of my future children (forgot to include that part).

Again, you can just pay someone to do that. Sugar Babies are strangely not illegal in the US.

Yes, but it would be unbecoming to pursue a route as that (your social circle looks at you differently when you do certain things), and disservice to my future children. It wouldn't be right to put them through life with stigma of their mother being a glorified secretary-prostitute.
