What do I want? Inspirado. When do I want it? Uhhmm...now?

Aside from me being a smartass, this blog has had a major focus on dating when you're socially awkward. As I've said, this is partly for my own benefit, analyzing my own reactions and trying to learn more about myself, but also in hopes of helping other adults and teens with Asperger's who may have similar troubles.
Now, however, I'd like to take a second to be selfish and talk about what I want.

There aren't very many specific traits I'm looking for in a woman. It's really about the individual as a whole. I want someone who is kind, caring and with a similar sense of humor, but that's standard. Most people want that, or at least that's what they say. What I'm looking for is more abstract. I want someone that inspires me and someone that I can inspire. Someone who deserves every little thing I do for them but doesn't expect it. Someone who makes me want to get up as quickly as possible when my alarm goes off because I don't want to wake them up so they can sleep for a couple hours more.

I'm already an ambitious person, but there are some people whose mere presence makes you want to be even more. There's a lyric from my old friend's band, Shai Hulud, from the song "When One Bests Defeat"- "I climb to the crest, and strive to climb higher." I've experienced that feeling twice in the past year from women I've dated, and although neither worked out, I can settle for nothing less. I need someone with Inspirado.
