Who I'm looking for
A girl who is a bit old fashioned. Sure I like pretty eyes, who doesn't? But what I wouldn't miss are the more superficial things in life...things that lack substance just under the surface. For each of us that list will differ. For me, natural is important. A giver, a receiver..not a taker nor an emotional miser. Some guys love a silicon filled sweater, 7 layers of makeup, stiff coiffed platinum-blonde hair, nails that need refilling more often than his gas tank, never-ending nagging and..
I think you get the idea. To put it simply, that guy is not me. Do you ever wonder why starlets, models and outrageously popular people have so many emotional problems? Too often life has been easy and there's been no need to develop a deep self image -far easier to have one ready made and served on a silver platter to every adoring fan or soon-to-be-forgotten nobody.
Not looking for superficial or overly made up. Rather someone who blends in softly with the scenery, makes me forget the world when our eyes meet, who laughs gently and exudes affection and is romantic.
Will she get dirty? Yes. Will it be fun or sometimes even work? Yes. Does she dance or is she waiting for me to teach her? Yes. Will she discuss off-the-wall topics and be interested in my ramblings about nanoparticle structures and ancient greek epics? Yes, sometimes. I'm not stupid, girls can only take so much interest. Have to admit that it takes a special woman to crawl under a car with you, and give a high five during a football game..and especially deal with your mom/family, unless they get along from the get go. Oh yes, will she like country music? Yes and/or eventually. I don't chew tobacco, but I have Wranglers and the leather back-pocket patches seem to pop off my jeans. Does she want kids? Yes, very much. Does she do drugs? No. Will she drink? Maybe, and make flirty glances in my direction.
Will she need me? Yes and yes, but she's got a good sense of self worth. Does she share my political views? Maybe. Will she be blind to others perspectives? No. Does she like listening to Yngwie Malmsteen? Maybe. Will she hold me when the movie gets scary? Duh!
Will she call me stupid? If I deserve it, but not otherwise. Will I call her stupid? Course not, that would be "stupid" of me. Will I treat her with respect, even when we disagree? Yes'm. Will I treat her mother with respect, even when we disagree? Yes'm (with a furrowed brow).
Will we embrace each other's imperfections as precious gifts? Yes :)
Does she love flowers? Yes, and when she gets them her skin tingles. Will she try 70% cocoa chocolate bars or turkish coffee? Yes, at least to nibble or sip. Will she resent me or show irrational jealousy? I hope never. Will I punch a guy who cops a feel in a crowded room? Yes, gladly.
That about covers it. Well except for the part about being a lady in public and sensual in private.
