For those in a happy marriage, what qualities did you look for in a man when dating?

I know people often say that when you're young, it's okay to make mistakes, but I have seen many women who made excellent choices in their partners, even in their 20s, simply by setting their priorities straight. It may seem unusual, but I created a list of qualities I would look for in a man. These include: financial literacy, a provider mindset, emotional intelligence, values that align with mine, and a willingness to take action rather than just talk.

Is there anything else I should consider adding to this list? It seems like such an important topic because choosing the right partner can significantly impact your life. Sometimes I think it comes down to luck, as many amazing women end up settling in relationships due to a lack of options available to them and maybe for not knowing what they want.
