Man of My Dreams...

Someone asked me what I want in a man the other day. It got me thinking. I don’t really want that much. I don’t care what kind of car a man drives or how much money is in his bank account. I don’t need Morris Chestnut. (Not saying that Morris and I aren’t meant to be, but a girl can only wait for his phone call for so long.) So, I realized that there are only 3 main things I want in a guy.

1. A guy who makes me laugh. If you are laughing, you won’t be fighting.
2. Someone I can be alone with and not have to say a word. Ever have those uncomfortable silences with someone you are dating? Yeah, that means that you probably shouldn’t be together.
3. Someone who can “blend”. Let me explain this one a bit. I work in a very corporate setting. I want to be with someone that I can take to work functions and not worry about what he’ll say to my boss. I want to be with someone who will get along with my country family in Birmingham and my very traditional Japanese family. He has to be comfortable with my friends that drink, smoke, and gamble along with the ones that are Seventh Day Adventists and Christians that pray for us heathens. I’m not saying that he can’t be himself or that he has to like everyone in my life. I just want him to be able to get along with people and not be uncomfortable.

Those are probably the three main things I look for. Of course there are the standard things that everyone woman wants. You know, Have a job, any job just as long as you are working. If you live with your Mama, don’t call me! It’s one thing if there is a special situation around it, but not “Ummm… I live in my Mama Basement right now, but I’m gonna get my own place when I get my money right.” Oh, and since I’ve been in Florida, If I am blinded by your smile because of all the gold in your mouth, you might as well just turn around and walk away.

See, those aren’t unreasonable requests\requirements, are they?
