It would be easy to say that everyone should date a class clown-type person. However, not everyone is interested in the same personality traits. This is why it is important for you to determine what personality traits you value most. Do you want someone who is romantic? Do you want someone funny or do your prefer someone who is more serious? It really all depends on what you are interested in, but be sure to consider what type of personality you are looking for.

First and foremost, you will want to take a potential mate’s physical features into consideration. A lot of people say that looks do not matter. However, it is important for you to at least be somewhat physically attracted to someone that you may be interested in dating or the relationship will never work on a long-term basis. Keep in mind that a person does not necessarily need to be top model material for you to date them. They simply need to be attractive to you.
