_ Passion:
Does he have goals and dreams for his future? Is he
committed to pursuing them?
__ Good Health & Habits:
Does he take good care of himself (eat well, go to the
gym, etc.)? Does he have any habits that are deal-
breakers (Drug or alcohol abuse, smoking)?
__ Balanced Emotional State:
Does he seem stable? (Beware of overly jaded types,
those with excessive 'emotional baggage,' or men with
rage issues or out-of-control mood swings.)
__ Treats You Well:
Does he treat you with respect and consideration? How
do you feel when you're around him - happy, relaxed,
safe? If he makes you feel uneasy, insecure, controlled,
or threatened, he is definitely not boyfriend material.
__ Treats Others Well:
Is he friendly with his doorman? Is he kind to
waitresses and generous with tips? If he's pleasant
with other people it's a good sign that he's not just
putting on an act for you.
__ Healthy Relationship Track Record:
What is his dating history like? Is he a serial
monogamist or the king of one-night stands? If he
hasn't dated much (or at all), that could also be a red
flag. If you know other women he's dated in the past,
do they have good things to say about him?
__ Good Relationship With His Family:
Is he close with his family? Does he treat his parents
with respect? Is he friendly with his siblings? These
are all good signs of a quality man. However....Beware
of the Mama's Boy! A man who hasn't "cut the cord" with
his mother is nothing but trouble - either he'll expect
you to wait on him and make his bed OR you'll spend your
life trying to live up to the perfect image of Mommy.
Either way, it's not good - so get out now and save
yourself for a man who will make you the #1 woman in
his life!
__ Maturity Level:
Does he follow through on his responsibilities? If he
blows off a commitment to stay home and play Xbox, he
may not be ready to meet the obligations of an adult
relationship.

The guy I just recently parted ways with has alot of emotional bagguage and has a very hot and quick temper. A person can only take so much of him. He has caused me alot of heart ache and pain.
