Qualities to Look For in a Mate?

[DianaB]

If I ever had to pick another mate (and I have a pretty good one) I'd have to look for these qualities:

1. Most important--Needs to be a man who loves the Lord with all his heart.
2. He needs to be honest and hard-working.
3. He needs to be able to separate work and play time.
4. He needs to have a good sense of humor.
5. He needs to support me in the things that I do.
6. He needs to give compliments.
7. He needs to be patient and kind.

I know that there's others to list, but my husband just called and is taking me out to eat tonight at my favorite restaurant. BTW--My husband is everything on the list except for being able to get totally away from his work. You know that a farmer's work is NEVER done!
