      This is a sentence fragment. It is incomplete. I'm waiting for the verb in the sentence.

      2. She must have a kindness whom is like Santa claus.
      Can you fix the error?

      3. My ideal WOMAN IS SOMEONE that hate shopping or credit cards. SVA error (please correct).

      What's wrong with the above?

      2. the man who will not mislead or manipulate

      3. My soul mate is ONE who will be honest AND not try to hide things from me.

      4. The man who will be sympathetic with the fragile nature of my emotions.
      This is a sentence fragment. It's a dependent clause. There is no main clause. Please redo.

      I like the last sentence.
