just off the bat, gaming is a plus but it is most certainly not a must. what is a must is she gotta be ok with it, cause I'm not not dropping my one major passion-hobby just for a woman. and i wouldn't do or expect that out of her of her major passionate hobby either - whatever it may be.
As for what i look for in personality? I look for someone who is truly-open minded and flexible and yet strongly values traditional family values and roles. I look for a wife who wants to be a mom, not a career-woman who drops her kids off in daycares, or in Saudi's case, where the maid takes over the role of mom. Someone who comes from very tight family bonds as well. It's why i've said before many times, that the people i bond with the best (in general for the most part) are the Saudi-halfy/East-West families. Families that don't treat the social bonds as "your 18 and your out" set up....
I got no qualms whatsoever with career-women, one who has the passion and drive to go where she wants. but it's not what I'M looking for. I've made very strong bonds with a few women i had the pleasure of getting to know in college that i hope to not let go so easily while at the same time given their passions or personalities i've mostly not thought of them as long-term romantic material.
and that isn't to say that i want to be an absent-father always being the workaholic. I have very very few memories of my dad as a young boy. my dad was always working, he spoiled me and my siblings but never really played with us or bonded, and at least half of my childhood memories are him playing the disciplinary role.
but see, right now, that's a big thing i'm looking for, someone to settle down with. Not mess around with, not a gaming buddy that i also happen to be sexually attracted to - though that'd be a huge plus.
EDIT:
someone who is thick skinned, you have no idea how attractive it is to me when i can say - lets say - a dirty sex joke, and the girl genuinely laughs and can toss it back. I dunno, i guess it shows me how emotionally stable and mature you are in handling that subject material. I love it when women can dish out jokes and jibes as well as take them.
