I was the kid who played school, having my imaginary students sit properly in their desks while I instructed. I wrote this desire on my love list to attract a partner who also values learning—not just through formal education and not just learning academic information. Someone who has a quest for knowing and asks, “why?” Someone who see nearly every experience as a learning opportunity. Someone who retained that childlike sense of wonder and awe and views life as a great teacher. Someone who believes it’s never, ever too late to learn something new.
