Well to be honest i have no idea. I suppose i seem to have a strange personality which is partly true, but i'm really extreamly shy and have a lot of crap in my past....i guess being able to trust someone. If i could trust someone that would be amazing.

He must be patient and kind! That's all that matters.

Thank you for this great giveaway!:)

I'm so looking forward to this book. : )

My hubby is very considerate, does what ever he can to take care of me, especially when I need some support, and makes me laugh. : D

Thanks for the giveaway.

Someone that cares about me. So, being caring would be important for me:)

My perfect match must have two top qualities above all else:

**He must be a Christian

**He must be my best friend, even before being my romantic partner.

Providentially, I've been given this person. Jonathan is a wonderful Christian man, and also my best friend. And I know that if I met him for the first time today, I'd totally have a crush on him!

Spav said...

Someone who's funny and at the same time calm.

EVA SB said...

I must have someone I can be best friends with.
This means he must be principled while not taking himself or life too seriously.
Loyal and reliable but fun at parties.
With a good sense of humour but able to be serious when appropriate.
Most of all he must love me for who I am.

Lucky for me I've already found him and married him.

Alessandra said...

My best match would need to be patient, caring, and able to keep a cool head in a crisis. No luck finding him yet, but I guess there's still hope.

Leslie said...

Someone who is kind, caring, and can make me laugh! Luckily I've found him! :)

I think that someone should be sweet, caring, and helpful. It wouldn't help if he was funny or fun either, though :D

Vicky said...

He must be loyal, I could never be with a guy who would cheat on me!

mariska said...

He has to have a good ear to hear what i share to him, loyal , funny person, and love me tenderly :)

Denise said...

My perfect mate would be someone who provides me with Barnes and Noble gift certificates on a regular basis.

brandileigh2003 said...

Draws me out of myself.

Great giveaway thanks!

lyan said...

He Has To Be Able To Make Me Laugh When Times Are Hard!!!

Unknown said...

Someone would just have to accept me & roll with the punches. (Not literal of course.) But I can go a bit awry sometimes without warning & I just need someone who would be standing there, open arms, when my walls finally fall down.

P.S. Great contest.

Noemí said...

thank you very much for this giveaway =)

Noemí said...

A perfect match por me is a simpathetic boy, that have a smile in his mouth and the truth in his eyes. =)

Riv Re said...

I need a boy who has a sense of humor. If he can't lighten up, crack a joke, laugh a little, then he's not for me.

Heather said...

My husband keeps me from stressing out to much and is always making me laugh. He is my perfect match :)

MissHavoc said...

My hubby is my perfect match because he "gets" me. sometimes I WANT to be anti-social and lock myself in our room w/ a book. He just gives me a kiss and takes the kids to the park. can't get any better than that!

Rachel498 said...

I want a guy who has a sense of humor, and that I enjoy being around :)

Angela Hoffman said...

Great contest! I think there is no better quality than someone who has integrity.

Unknown said...

Wow this is a hard question. Can it be more than one? LOL.

I would have to say a follower of Christ and a good sense of humor!

Jessica said...

Has to be honest. If I can't trust someone I can't enjoy any other qualities they may have.

My perfect match would have to be very family oriented and loyal.

Nora said...

I'm In :)
Thanks you so much!!

Jess said...

My perfect match would love books and reading as much as me so we would have plenty to talk about, and he'd also have to let me be myself 100 per cent and accept every part of me the good and the bad :)

Lena1xoxo said...

They have to be smart. I'm not saying they have to win a Pulitzer or anything, but if I ask them if they've seen any good movies or read any good books, I'd like a better answer than "what?" lol :P

It's the 30th...HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :D

I want Matched so bad it hurts!

Jennifer R said...

My perfect match would have to sparkle. Heehee, just kidding. He'd have to be nerdy enough to get my references, or else I wouldn't be able to talk to him. And he would have to have a zombie defense plan.

The most important quality, of course, is that he would have to be a guy who really knows where his towel is.

Thanks for the giveaway!

YA Book Queen said...

Definitely a sense of humor. I like to laugh a lot, so it would definitely be perfect if I found a guy who could easily join in :)

Sara said...

Fun and caring. Rich would be nice too ;)

Melissa @ Mel's Books and Info said...

The one quality I like having in my perfect match is his honesty. I know I can always trust him.

Llehn said...

He must have a sense of humor!

Chel said...

I've never really been into a relationship cuz I just don't feel comfortable around guys. I don't know why but they make me feel intimidated :( I feel like I'm too immature for them what with me liking manga and anime despite my age, although I'm still teenager. The perfect match for me, I think is someone with a lot of sense of humor and who can understand my otaku jargons XD and most of all, someone who understands what I really need not some insensitive jerk who can't read between the lines.

Ruth (Book Focus) said...

Oh wow, that's a hard question. One quality? I'm so picky, I want so many qualities in a guy! :)

The ability to think deeply about things, I think. Or the ability to make me laugh, or to not be afraid to look silly sometimes. And I need to be able to trust him.

Thankfully, my boyfriend is all of those and so much more. :)

(Also: love Jennifer R's answer! Can I copy hers? It's much cooler than mine!)

Aik said...

Someone who has wisdom and patience, someone who is loving, caring, accepting and forgiving.

Raíla said...

The perfect match to me definitely can't be so sticky. Yes, sticky. I don't like when someone come and kiss and hug all the time, not letting me stand up or something. I just found out that I also don't like those so romantic. But they have to be calm, patient, polite... :)

Gaby G said...

My perfect match have to love me! And of course, don't take me serious when I am angry and explode xD If he is patient, caring, and funny, he is perfect :)

Cackleberry Homestead said...

The perfect match for me is my husband and I have to say what makes him perfect is his sense of humor - he can always make me laugh no matter what the situation.

He would have to be easy to talk to and up for a lugh :)

A great sense of humor and love of having fun at the right times, meaning not always serious.

I love humor. I really need a great guy who can handle me and make me laugh.

Lynsey Newton said...

Thank you for the giveaway!

Same sense of humour to me would pretty much do it I think. And an understanding of my love for books ;)

Hmm...my perfect match would have to work at an ice cream factory, so I can get some freebies. A nice crop of tendrils would be nice too!
