Many people highly value a sense of humor in a partner. It’s commonly referenced in dating profiles. But as with all of the 21 traits, degree matters: Some people live to laugh, others are fine with just a taste of funny.
Some things to consider: Do you need the other person to make you laugh or simply have a sense of humor in general? How much of a priority is it? How much of it is based on laughing at the same things? If you’re a serious type or less light-hearted, maybe humor is a nice to have, not a must have. Are you fine either way or is it a priority for you?
The value some place on their partner having a sense of humor is often a dealbreaker: People who value laughter or sense of humor in a relationship often rate it as “Important” or a “Must Have” Critical Compatibility™ on the 21traits.com quiz. This is a trait that typically travels together, meaning those who seek it often possess it.
