Jacqueline Elliott argues you should look for confidence, genuine contentment, and compatibility instead of superficial traits. Both partners need to be naturally happy and like-minded so you actually complement each other, not complete each other.

Hey babe. What should a woman look for in a man, in your opinion? I think a woman should really see if that person is somebody that carries a confidence. Somebody they don't have to try to impress all the time. Impressing can go two different ways. I mean, you want to keep it new and you want to keep your relationship going all the time. But sometimes people see things that probably won't like last, like, oh yeah, well, I like him because of how he is with his friends, or I like his style or whatever it is. I don't know, silly little things. It has to be something that's deeper. You really should look at something that actually makes you feel like that complements who you are as a person. I have to be a naturally happy person and content person. And then I would look at you and see if you're a content and happy person. A lot of people are always like, oh, well, I'll be happy once I find that girl. I'll be happy once I get this car, or I'll be happy once I have this career. I think it's somebody that you find that's already happy that's only going to complement your happiness and your fulfillment in life. I mean, that should, that should be it. But you should find it within yourself. So find somebody that's like minded in that sense.
