To dupe a thread topic from the NF private forums:

What do NTs value in their romantic relationships? Feel free to answer however you wish... (a list, detailed paragraphs, whatever).

I'll be lazy and mercifully brief:

- Honesty/Trust
- Mutual exploration of the richness of Life together
- Commitment/Faithfulness/Sacrifice
- Intimacy and/or Communication
- Respect/Consideration

- imagination and willingness to share imagination
- curiosity/love of exploration & experimentation
- I hate to be cliche, but....ability to "think outside the box" (drives me nuts when someone HAS to do something a certain way, simply because that's the way it's "always been done" without considering there might be a better way to do it)
- confidence (in themselves and me)
- the ability to understand emotions without gushing them all over the place

I like a few kinds of people, and the qualities I appreciate can be mutually exclusive among them. Universally? Honesty maybe, an occasionally positive attitude, and an engaging presence.

I don't think I really value anything but being comfortable with the person. Maybe I am just such a loser with no friends that I don't take that sort of thing for granted. I am not comfortable with many people (read: 2 or 3 in my life).

  • honesty
  • loyalty
  • faithfulness
  • acceptance
  • forgiveness
  • openness
  • chemistry - just in case it's not a given
  • similarity in intelligence level
  • mutual respect
  • mutual trust
  • commonality of interests
  • commonality of youth experiences
  • discreetness


Yes, I stole synarch's idea... because bulleted lists are so nice looking.
