Oh, a Jean-Luc Picard type would do nicely... ;)
You meant, seriously... Well, he needs to be
intelligent, kind, have a sense of humor, like
animals, and have a very strong will/personality. The
latter is required because I'm rather strong-willed
myself, and without meaning to, I'd just walk over him
if he didn't speak up. <shrug> Not flattering, that
last, but true nevertheless. Hence my 'gourami fish'
interpretation. [Of course, in RL certain health
issues have intervened. Sucks, but them's the
breaks.]

Hmm, have you and Gary N been talking? <evil grin>
Again seriously, role-playing can be awfully...fun.
But having to constantly curb your expression of
knowledge or opinions is not only a form of lying, it
leads to resentment and even a low-grade contempt.
*Not* what I want in a relationship.
