parents
My parents actually met on a blind date. I don't think that it was love at first sight, I think that love is something that develops over time. They are very alike in some ways as far as cleanliness, morals, and ideas on life. The things that I looked for in a potential partner before I married my husband were-good provider(emotional&financial), motivated, orderly,clean,independent and attractive. Physical attraction and character definitely play a role in partner selection. To me being religious or having spiritual conviction wasn't that important. Some of my ideas about my partner have changed over time(we've been married for almost 9 years). Now that we have a child I tend to put more emphasis on him being a good father(which he is!). I'm sure that as we reach different touch-points in our lives my ideas about what is important will continue to evolve. But for right now I'm happy with where we are.

I think that it is so important for a man to be a good father. I also found it interesting when you stated that you think your opinion will continue to evolve over time. I have noticed that my opinions have greatly changed based on my own personal experience.
What you looked for in a partner are very good qualities. It sounds you like you found yourself a good one!
