Do you derive joy when someone else succeeds?
Do you not play dirty when engaged in competition?
Do you have a big...intellectual capacity?
(but know that it alone does not equate wisdom)

Do you see everything as an illusion?
(but enjoy it even though you are not of it)
Are you both masculine? And feminine?
And politically aware?
And don't believe in capital punishment?

These are 21 things I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer

Do you derive joy from diving in and seeing that loving someone can actually feel like freedom?
Are you funny? A-la self-deprecating?
Like adventure?
And have many formed opinions?

Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer
I figure I can describe it since I have a choice in the matter
These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover

I'm in no hurry, I could wait forever
I'm in no rush cause I like being solo
There are no worries and certainly no pressure
In the meantime I'll live like there's no tomorrow

Are you unhibited in bed?
More than three times a week?
Up for being experimental?
Are you atheletic?
Are you thriving in a job that helps your brother?
Are you not addicted?

And communicative?
