Expectations or requirements?!

Someone asked me "what are three traits you require in a mate?" My answer was consistency, good communication, & humility. Not too long ago the answer would've have been superficial traits or visual characteristics. I now realize that these are the traits I'm looking for in all relationships. Everyone isn't husband/friend material. The best thing I can do is to be as consistent & humble as possible and communicate as best as possible. It's easy to make a list.....it's hard to be the example of that list.
