"The advice herein applies to all adults, male or female, straight or gay or bi or trans or anyone in between. The suggestions and the cautions are the same for everyone. Admittedly, most humans are seeking someone to be with and to live with for life, not merely in a comfortable way, but an enjoyable way, and as stress-free as reasonably possible in this occasionally unpredictable world."
"The usual indicators of attraction remain the same: physical beauty, intelligence, charm, education, life goals, the social consideration of others, desires for children and pets, financial stability, and also believing in the same or no religion and one's political orientation. These factors are present for everyone in the early but crucial ongoing auditions for a lifetime partner. Any of these variables can be obtained in a variety of ways."
All adults, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, seek long-term companions for comfortable, enjoyable, and reasonably stress-free lives. Minor differences should be tolerated with minor protests, and judicious humor can ease tensions. Core indicators of attraction include physical beauty, intelligence, charm, education, shared life goals, social consideration, desires for children and pets, financial stability, and compatible religious and political orientations. These factors drive initial and ongoing evaluations for a lifetime partner, and many variables can be obtained in different ways. Given high breakup and divorce rates, increasing the probability of a durable partnership is prudent.
