A good man is one with manners and who treats others with respect. I dislike people who are unnecessarily rude to others. He also needs to be someone that deserves respect because he conducts himself well, and has good family values.
Fidelity
That's loyalty and faithfulness. I’d much rather have a partner be man enough to break up with me than out cheating behind my back. If you want to be with me then stay mine, and I will give the same commitment back to you.
Humour
I could not be in a relationship with someone who wasn't on the same wavelength as me, humour wise. I want somebody to laugh with... and sometimes laugh at.
Tact
Honesty is very important also but I prefer a man who can be honest without being insensitive. Just because it's the truth, doesn't mean you have the right to just blurt it out and hurt people.
Financially Stable
A financially stable man isn't one who is rich or makes a lot of money, but he handles his money well. Even a man with a big fat monthly pay check can be broke. Trust me, I know plenty of people like that.

What about you? What do you look for in a partner? Does your current partner have all those characteristics you desire?
Comments
Thankfully, after years of being alone and wondering where my prince charming is, I met someone who possesses the qualities I have been looking for. It has taken a long time and I have kissed a few frogs along the way, but I am glad I did not settle. :)
& yes...it is so painful when the one u love changes afyer a few years...its like you no longer resonate with him....n then ppl will challenge u by asking if ur love realy is unconditional.....should u stay or go? its a very difficult decision n if u stay then it takes a lot fo courage to hopefully help inspire him to be that man u fell in love with again.
I know, after 5 yrs and 2 kids (but we were classmates since 1998).
My take on the above comment, is to acccept that everyone changes. The trick for a couple is to stay updated on each other's changes (not talking abt infidelity here),acknowledge the changes and PROGRESS together.
Lastly, dont forget to fulfil (& upkeep) those qualities that he 'wanted' in you as well.
To be fair =P
Just my two cents =)
