@Millerski25 well thanks again then!

I’m most impressed by the way someone will listen to another person. A child, a stranger, a song or a movie. Everyone has a story to tell, and listening to them is the best education a person can get.

8

The usual: kindness, respect, honest, hard working, honest and on and on. My add is that I especially respect those who seek the right answer, rather than seeking to be right. It is a rare mindset and leads to better outcomes.

I am impressed by friendliness, kindness, good conversation.

.......and then again, I keep being asked why I am Nobody. It has been an interesting experiment of mine, gotta admit !!!!

Yeah, I wondered about that; why am I nobody?

Their personality and whether they are pleasant to be around or not.

Overcoming obstacles. Physical or mental

I'm impressed when I experience someone being truly themselves (in a good way) and not worry about perceptions.

powerful stuff, astral. probably a step up from my 'sincerity'. food for thought as I grow and change.

6

I'm impressed with people who consistently treat others with kindness and respect. If that element is missing, it's likely I will avoid contact with that person as much as possible. Degrees? My two best friends both have masters degrees, and I stopped at a bachelors. The respect among the 3 of us is mutual and sincere. Money, except for the struggle our children have earning enough for basic expenses, doesn't get into our conversations very much. Yes, we are professionals who got through college before it became such a financially difficult process and have earned a living wage. We do, therefore, speak from a position of privilege.

6

Empathy and honesty. These things are so rare. A reason I'm still single.

6

Two of the above plus intellect. The two are kindness and integrity.

6

Their level of composure in a difficult situation and level of compassion towards complete strangers.

6

Intelligence, sense of humor, creativity, and a moderate sense of humility.

6

honesty and how real they are

6

Calm, rational demeanor.
Willingness to go "off the trail".
Ability to enjoy silence - don't have to talk.
Good sense of humor and the absurd.
Non materialistic.
Chocolate & coffee.
