07/19/2008 | He/she has to be a good listener. If he/she is always interrupting you either their bi-polar or they don't give a crap about what your saying. Either way don't let it slide.

06/25/2008 | All people needs to be listened some times. This is not an exigence, but I don't want to stay with someone who never listen to me when I really need it.

06/08/2008 | Being a good listener is advantageous in many ways. It shows your partner your concern and interest regarding what he/she has to say and gives you an opportunity to learn things about him/her that impatience could prevent it. Many times, a good listener becomes the best adviser by simply listening.

02/23/2007 | I think girlfriends appreciate this quality in their boyfriends more than boyfriends appreciate this quality in their girlfriends. Just give us guys something good to look at.

05/01/2006 | If I'm talking and you're not listening to me, I'll punch you in the mouth because that is really annoying and offensive. :(

01/24/2006 | This is important. I have caught my girlfriend saying something different than before to see if I'm listening. So far, I think I'm doing alright.

01/23/2006 | Well everyone wants to be listened to, and a vital part of communication is good listening skills. And communication is important in a relationship, well good, positive communication anyway. That's partly why there are so many unnecessary fights, because a partner doesn't feel they are being listened too. A rater below made an excellent point. You should be very grateful that someone would even consider you trustworthy enough to open up to like that.

05/26/2004 | A must for basic good relationship. If someone is a one way talker...Narcisstic folks need not apply
to be around me. Not saying that in any couple - who talks the most (that doesn't matter if they are happy) Just must be listening to relate. Can you hear me now?.......Leave your ears on...good buddy...Communcation involves all of the senses - ears included.

02/26/2004 | Ben always listens to me, and I try to listen back, although he mostly talks about food and football. But I don't mind, because he's really good to talk to when you need advice, or just a friendly ear.

01/08/2004 | When I'm pouring my heart out, yes, I would like them to be listening. When I'm ranting on a very specific pop culture topic that not many know or care about I sort of expect their attention to drift. You can't expect people to listen to EVERYTHING you have to say because, let's face it, not everything humans say is interesting or worthwhile to listen to.

12/13/2003 | Theres nothing I need more while my retinas are burning from hours of posting silly comments on RIA than someone who can listen to me complain for just as many hours about how hard done by I am. Very important

10/28/2003 | The best romantic prospects genuinely value what their new partner has to express. It shows caring. And in the long run, mutual understanding can be very sustaining. Even when you agree to disagree, being accurately heard helps resolve things. That said, it's unrealistic to expect anyone to be a perfect listener. However, if your mate routinely refuses to put any effort into hearing you, ignores your phone calls, or habitually misjudges your concerns, you'll eventually have to decide if all the frustration is worth it. Finding a good listener is awesome, especially since this usually accompanies other favorable personality traits.

05/01/2003 | Couples need to be able to listen and understand each other's problems in order to deal with them. If your partner is pouring his or her heart out to you, then you owe them the courtesy of listening- you should be flattered that they trust you enough to tell you their problems.

08/25/2001 | It varies from time to time. I'm not someone who like to talk about my feelings. But if and when I do I'd like to have a partner who is a good listener. I mean, what if I had a problem and discussed it with my boyfriend and he would interrupt me and start another topic. That's just not gonna cut it.
