Define older. Well in this life someone who isnt trying to con me or steal from me or live off me is a good start.
Other than that this is probably not realistic but I my dream partner would be someone who can hangout for a weekend or maybe a week then be cool while I return to hermit mode for a month. I dont think thats qualifies as a quality but there.

@NeuroticByNature I guess 40+.
I think that's a quality. Someone more independent and understanding of introversion. They would get you. I hope you can find that.

@NeuroticByNature
I think you can solve everything by talking to someone for 70-100 hours
and most people pass the flaky test/quality friend test
if they get that far
I think it's pretty much
- do you like all my neat hobbies, and what are your neat hobbies
- do we tolerate our looks and personalities? okay whew, that's the scary part for most
- The deal breaker is the John Waters Filmmaker test - Do you like their bookshelf - it's the ultimate compatibility test
- once they seem a 'real friend'
it's all up to them, with feelings and everything else
