I think list making is not the best way to go about it. Someone can fulfill all your stated requirements, and still not be the one for you,... Personally I've found more productive to get to know the person I'm attracted to, and just feel how I'm doing with her. As long as I feel good, everything is fine. And if after some time (months, years), I still feel good about her, then I consider getting more deeply engaged with her.

I've been with the same person for 11 years now, we are married, and I'm very happy. But there's no way she would have fulfilled any list I could have drawn before I met her (wrong air color, character, level of maturity). Anyway, I don't think I would have been able to draw a list of what actually works for me, as a person. Maybe your wishlist person would be terrible for you to live with! Things are so much more rich and complicated than you think, that in the end I think it's better to try and find it out.
