I seriously struggled when it came to writing my relationship resume. I'm actually really embarrassed by how little I came up with. Sometimes, it amazes me how I have any friends. Because, I really don't see how I contribute to any of the relationships in my life. So, instead of feeling bad about myself, I'm blazing onward, and am looking for the skills and qualities a woman needs in order to be successful in her relationships.
Looking back at how I used to approach relationships, I think I placed too much emphasis on the nuances of a relationship. In other words, there are the key foundation blocks needed for a successful relationship. But then, after that a couple can adapt and be truly happy in a way another couple may not be able to. I always assumed people would just love me for me, and work around all my isms. What I've learned over the years is that my isms aren't something that people want to work around, so they avoid me all together.
I found so many websites with qualities that are not only desirable in a woman, but also required for a truly happy and successful relationship. Below is a pretty comprehensive list of qualities (in no particular order) that I need to have.
I have some work to do!
