Dabu Sensei:
I thought it worthwhile to describe some of Lum's qualities that I believe are worth emulating.
1. Devotion
This has to be Number 1. Lum-chan remains faithful to her "beau" with an undying hope that he will turn out for the best. (This despite the repeated and almost perpetual display of ill-treatment on Ataru's part for this sweet and divine creature.) She _believes_ in him.
All of us have failings. We live in a world ready to heap criticism on us over and over again for these. It's like everyone is ready to pounce on us for each of these failings.
Deserved or not--how delightful it would be to have a friend, a companion, loyal and devoted who would forgive us these weaknesses and help us be better. To stay by us, ready with praise and encouragement.
What I'd tell a girlfriend: If we are late for a date, rather than assume we enjoy that, making you wait, how much more joyful it would be if you are happy to have us there finally. Understanding that we might be really unhappy about being late too.
2. Self-confident
Lum-chan is ready to stand up for herself. She's no pushover. Harm her and she is ready to electrify you. On the other hand, when she sees her Ataru threatened, she is ready to do what it takes to help him. She's able with a plan, ready to execute it. Even when Ataru doesn't appreciate it.
She makes her opinion clear and straightforward, letting everyone know what it is she wants. She knows she has skills (piloting, flying, marksmanship, etc.) and uses them.
What I'd tell a girlfriend: It would be nice to know where we stand with you--no hidden meanings, no second guessing. That you would express your opinions--not just go along with whatever I say. You can do things and we should do things you like too.
Dabu Sensei To love Lum is to love life to its fullest.
Forgotten_Lum:
wow you really are a poet, reading this is like reading a poem, now i will add one of my own
3. Clumsiness
It is true Lum-chan is self-confident in what she does, even in things she is terrible at. Lum-chan can make a mess of any meal or make it super spicy. As shown in the episode where she was taking care of sick Ran, she cant do many house chores correctly.
Even these things tend to turn out bad it is still a good quality, it makes her that much cuter.
What I'd tell a girlfriend: Don't be afraid to do something that your not good at, a true man would be understanding and forgiving. He might even help and work with your problems, this can bring a relationship closer. Like i've said before, imperfection is perfection and can make a woman that much cuter.

6. To be Open
Lum comes to this unfamiliar planet, has no expetations of it and just takes every thing for what it is, she dont discard anything becuse its new and dont judge people by there looks or for what they do.
Lum is open to everything new to her, whenever she experience a new thing or meet a new person she never judge anything before she knows what it is.
That is what i belive is the biggest problem among the ladies. That is that they are afraid of new things and experiences so if you watch anime and you meet a girl who only knows anime as child cartoon videos will not think of it any other way then a childrens activiety and simply judge you by that and then ignore whatever you say. Therefor she is a little narrowminded.. and for me personaly i whould never go with a lady who judge things first before she has tried it or realy knows what it is, if she thinks its one way she should atleast give anyone the right to prove her it may not be that way. As Lum does she.
