My Expectations.....Too High?

So, with the dreaded Valentines Day rapidly approaching, here I sit in spinsterhood. Normally my best friend Andrea and I make fun of it and spend that day with each other watching movies and we refer to it as S.A.A.D (Single Adult Awareness Day). I don't really care if I have a guy or not, but I miss Andrea. She is in Idaho this year, so we won't be able to spend it together.
But I got to thinking about my expectations in any guy I date; maybe my being single is my own fault. So I've compiled a list and here it goes:
1. Makes me laugh (OUCH MY SIDES HURT! LOL)
2. Can grow to love me unconditionally (Oh Ret, Where will I go, what will I do?)
3. Listens to me when I'm talking as if what I'm saying is important...even when it isn't. (Listening is a big thing for me...)
4. Adores being around me, yet adores my independence.(where did she go now?)
5. Laughs when I am trying to be corny (what is this crazy chick doing now?)
6. Can be serious with me and have in depth conversations (I wish more people tried to do this.)
7. Encourages me to be a better person (Get up soldier NOW NOW NOW!)
8. Doesn't have to be romantic, in fact I don't expect it but does something nice often....this may not make sense Sorry(Here's a flower, now make me dinner)
9. Talks to me as if I'm his best friend (meaning trusts me with the things he would share with his best friend)
10. Is competent (Pick up after yourself do I look like your mother?)
11. Educated (Yes Dr....your wife is lovely)
12. Can hold down a decent job (Would you like fries with that?....NO)
13. Loves my family (In all our craziness)
14. If you are 30, been divorced twice, living at home with mom and dad....I'm not even going to give you the time of day.

There are many more things...but this is a general list. Let me know what you all think.
