He has to be wiser than me, but not condescending,
He has to be a teacher, but not a dictator,
He has to be older, but not without lust for life,
He has to be proud, but not egotistical.
He has to be truthful, but not judgemental,
He has to be independent, but not self-centred,
He has to make me laugh, but not at the expense of others,
He has to show compassion, but not make it his problem.
He has to be stronger than me, without using it against me,
He has to be taller than me, but not look down on me.
