While I was walking this morning, I spent almost the whole time thinking about my most favorite people and what I like about them. It was an interesting list, so here goes.
1. Sarcastic. You have to be able to dish it and take it. I've pretty much been a smartass my whole life, so I really appreciate that quality in others. Nothing makes me smile more than a good comeback given or received.
2. Quirky. We've all got our issues and eccentricities. I think those are the traits that make us interesting.
3. Self-aware. My favorite people definitely know who they are and are aware of their faults.
4. Competitive. Some people can be a little too extreme, but competition definitely makes things more fun. And, yes, I do try to understand that I can't always win. But it sure is fun trying.
5. Loyal. I've never met anyone who isn't judgmental in some way, but I also know a lot of people who are accepting of others. We all make stupid choices sometimes, but I think it's important to try to understand why people do what they do. And true friends support you no matter what.
What traits do you value most in your friends?

Honesty, humor and will always push for a second or third glass of wine.
