re: What qualities did you look for in your spouse?

My first marriage was to my personality twin. Driven, strong willed, opinionated, aggressive, unwilling to relinquish power. The goods were GREAT, but the bad was BAD. In hindsight, it's a miracle it lasted as long as it did.

My current wife is much more passive and solely focused on her family. It's worked brilliantly for the last 10 years.
