Write an essay with the minimum of 300 words about “What charateristics do you look for in a relationship?”

As a normal person, I want to love and be loved. I am single now and I have right to dream. So, just let me dream of my future girlfriend. I am greedy, so, what I mention below are things that I think it is the most important to me. And a girl who has more these charateristics is better.

First of all, because I am just like other guys, first impression of a girl is really important. When I meet a straight girl, her appearance is the first thing that drive me to like her or not. It’s is not fair to others when you like a girl just because of her beauty. But, life is inherently unfair and people must learn to adapt to it. There are many ways to make girls be good-looking and beautiful is in the eyes of the beholder. The reason that peple - including me - want to have a beautiful girlfriend or wife just because they don’t like to face an ugly one day and day. Knowing that a pretty girl is waiting for you at home makes you feel happy and motivate at work.

Secondly, I hope to have relationship with someone I can be completely truthful. A sincere friend is the one who does not lie to you, what her say is what in her mind. When I am with my sincere girlfriend, I will be peaceful and relaxed.

Thirdly, I want to tie my life with a considerate woman. In my oppinion, considerateness is the most important behavior to make people like you. So, if I have a thoughtful girlfriend, I will be completely comfortable with her. I will not afraid of anyone annoying with her and my relatives will be like her also. A mindful girlfriend is the one who care a lot about you, she will alway spend her time to listen and understanding you. Life is easier with a soulmate stand by you.

Finally, a woman who is independent is always is attracted to me. Men usually care about their sweethearts and want to do anything to help them. But a woman who always shows that she cannot solve her personal proplems without her man’s helping makes the man tired. I really want to help my girl on her problems but I still wish her could solve them by herself.

I know that sometimes life falls short of our expectations, and I am not a perfect man to expect a complete girl. Then, I will fall in love with a girl who makes my heart beats like a drum. I will love her for who she is and won’t care much about her unfit of my expectations because I am believe in love.
