Tell me, are my expectations too high?

I want someone who enjoys reading and discussing books. Someone who'll recomend books they think I'll like and will read the ones I recommend to them.
I want someone who takes an interest in my passions. I love to write. I just want them to be willing to read what I've written and tell me their honest opinion.
Someone who knows when to be serious and when not to be.
I want to be able to have discussions about anything and everything under the sun.
I want them to be flexible, to realise there's always two sides ot everything and be willing to listen to a different point of view.
I want them to be able to teach me new things without being condescending about it.
I want to be able to go on spontanious road trips, try new things and constantly have adventures.
I want to also be able to have quiet days, watching movies or tv or doing absolutely nothing.
I want someone to be able to discuss the meaning of life, explore different religions. When I say I want to go to a mormon church service, or a scientology service, or to a tarot card reader, or a baptist church service, I'd like them to support me (bonus points if they want to go with me) and not role their eyes at me for being so fascinated by religion.
Someone who won't be upset if I call them at four in the morning because I had a nightmare and I just need to talk.
I want someone who won't yell at me when I've had a nightmare or am having an anxiety attack or I read the map wrong and we get lost. I hate being yelled at more than anything in the world.


I've been dating my current boyfriend for the last four - five months and he falls short in every single category. He's a great guy but I feel like I'm setteling for the wrong one. But then again we do get along and maybe it's unrealistic to expect to find someone who fits all my wants. I'm just confused and unhappy and wish I were single again because I'd rather be single than date this guy. Am I a terrible person??

I'm going to answer my own question. No I'm not a terrible person. I'm just in a relationship that isn't working out because we aren't compatible. I need to be honest and end it before it goes any further.

Ps. If you know anyone who meets ALL of the standards on my list let me know!
