- A great place to rest my head during a nap. 
- Best when simple with clean lines.
- A little bit of squishiness is okay, but not enough to sink in.
- Must be able to recline and help me relax.
- Stable and comfortable.
I am currently in the market for new couches.  I am tired of the 15 year old flowered ones that I inherited from my parents during college.  They tend to clash with my Ikea inspired minimalist and modern living room furniture and decor. 
I am also a person who knows exactly what she likes and therefore what I want.  I want modern.  I want beige.  I don't want fluff.  I don't want huge pillows.  I don't want anything frilly.  I don't want 80s sleazy leather.  I want elegance. 
I have a picture in my head of what I want and I'm not willing to compromise.  I don't care how great your sales are stupid Ashley furniture saleswoman.  How many times did I tell you I DIDN'T want leather!
Anyways.  I think my couch search is very similar to my manhunt.  I know what I want in a man - and maybe he doesn't exist.  Maybe I'm being too picky.  (Please refer to my earlier experience with Match.com.)  But when I'm going to spend a lot of money on furniture, or in the case of men - gamble my heart, shouldn't I expect to get exactly what I want?  Why compromise with my standards?

Well women are like coffee tables.
- The picture on the box always looks better than what's inside
- It sits around the house all day in front of the TV
- Put a ring on it and its ruined forever.
I'd like to think women are more like futons.
- It's great at first, but after a little while it starts to get old.
- It can never make up its mind. Bed or couch? Couch or bed?
- It never leaves your room in the morning.
