A woman with a really good sense of humor is very good for me. If she is as comfortable in a group of people she does not know, or speaking to an audience, it is that much better.

Most people with theses abilities are well balanced, meaning they know when to be more serious if needed. That just makes the chemistry better for me.

I do not want a partner who freezes up in crowds of people, or other speaking engagements with me.
She should be an extrovert, engaging people and learning about them. There must be a shortage of these type, as I have really only met one woman so far who was just awsome in any environment. But she is in Sidney, Australia so that is too far for me.
Dated one like that back in my twenties and really should have probably never let that go. Have never met anyone that funny that was not crazy again.

Ok, to be honest I think a woman who is funny is cool to hang around with but it does not necessarily mean that I will be attracted to her. For example, there is a girl I know--funny as all hell, gets my jokes and laughs with me all the time. There is plenty of back and forth between us, ribbing each other and the like and it's fun. Am I attracted to her...honestly...you are going to hate me...but sorry...no. Will I ever be attracted to her? Probably not. That doesn't mean she won't make a great friend, it just means that I'm not attracted to her more than just that.

On the contrary, a friend of mine is slightly overweight. However, he can make a girl laugh like no other. Do girls love him? Yes! So I think there is a gender difference here.

I'm not trying to start a gender war, but I'm just being honest. So don't start flaming or anything. Please be mature adults about this. Thanks.

I'm not talking about women "with a good sense of humour" I mean women who are fast and witty and funny.

My ex was the funniest person I ever met; razor sharp with an enormous range of references. We had literally hundreds of running jokes that waxed and waned and which we bounced off each other. It was a kind of showing off to each other flirting and was positive and bonding.

I'm not sure if men in general like this though.

Ladies what's been your experience?

Do gentlemen prefer blands?
NO Blands pleeeze..
Are you kidding?? Humour is the cornerstone of existance... witty women do far more than just ROCK.. they are LIFE ITSELF..

No. If a real women is funny, that means she is talking, and therefore not a real woman. The exception is physical comedy, like slapstick humor. That's always funny. Especially if someone gets hurt.
I'm confused? i guess I must be a real woman then because I'm always hurting myself in slapstick ways, I have the scars and bruises to prove it.

Well I'm all badged out then!! I'm so good at slapstick that I';ve twisted the same ankle twice in less than eight months.

By the way, besides the distance, why on earth did you not go for Australia woman?

She was a very special woman. We had some really good times while she was here. She really, really, really tried so hard to get me to go over with her.

I told her very clearly when we met that my first priority is my boys, PERIOD. Simple fact is I am not moving to Australia and then have to travel back and forth to see my boys.

Hard part is trying NOT to use her as a measure of who I want as a partner.

Ahhh yes. Some of the funniest guys I've known have been a little (or a lot) crazy. Intelligence, creativity ...

Definite plus -- except that they're CRAZY.
