• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

What are the top five

None of the above.
 
Integrity: Required to have trust
Moral Courage: Ensures a person is interested in righteousness over their own welfare
Thoughtfulness: Nothing better than someone I respect doing something thoughtful for me
Humility: Opposite of arrogance, good way to ensure one is self accountable; aids in empathy
Affection: “Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our natural lives.” - C.S. Lewis

Edit: I'm thinking thoughtfulness would fall under affection, so I'd probably add sense of humor. A great sense of humor, when done right, can put people at ease with one another and as they say, laughter is the best medicine.

1. Empathy

Walk in other people's shoes before judging them.

2. Forgiving

Be the better man & don't let hate destroy your life.

3. Love

Share your love, your happiness & express gratitude to the people you care about. Be happy for other people's success & not jealous.

4. Selflessness

Help others.

5. Responsibility

Have integrity & recognize your errors
 
1. Happy - I enjoy people who are having a good time with life.
2. Stable - If you don't have your **** together, if you're always a victim, if everyone you meet is an asshole... you know what they say.
3. Good sportsman - I like people who are competitive but know how to lose. A skilled debater, one who doesn't engage in insults or mischaracterizations especially.
4. Interested - I like people who are passionate about something, anything, be it a hobby or a cause. If you're interested, you're interesting to me.
5. Straightforward - Someone who is honest and has all cards on the table, I hate it when some people won't speak plain, but will obfuscate or bull****.

emotional generosity -because so many good things come from it, primarily...empathy.
self-awareness coupled with courage- it's empowering. It enables you to take personal responsibility for who you are; for your words and actions and to make changes that create greater happiness and satisfaction
humility - allows you to make room for others
gratitude - keeps you from becoming bitter, or envious of others. Helps you maintain happiness
keeping your word - people learn to trust and count on you which creates the best of friendships
