Well...I've been watching some old, romantic movies for a few days. Among them are A Walk to Remember, The Lake House and The Perfect Man. And I actually got to thinking (on a weekend?!) about what I'm looking for in a guy. So, based on what I want for myself, what my parents want for me and what my friends would wish on me (<--good or bad?).
APPEARANCE (It doesn't really matter but I can dream...)
1] Dark Hair: My parents are ALL for blonde haired guys but for me, they're just too squeaky clean. They have no mystery!! Well, most of the blonde guys I know are like that. Anywayz, I've always been bias towards dark-haired guys. That's just me though.
2] Light Eyes: My parents and I agree on this wholeheartedly. I love guys with lght eyes. Blue, green, grey...watever is available. My dream is to marry a guy with piercing blue eyes. But I also like guys with dark, warm eyes that I can melt into...*sighs dreamily*
3] Tall: I'm pretty short so, to spare my children, I wish for a tall husband. At least 5'7" or something. Being short isn't a great thing. It can be handy at times but it's annoying to always be the smallest one. Also, I like guys who are taller than me. You know that leg-popping thing that Anne Hathaway was so crazy about in her Princess role in Princess Diaries? I'm like that. I wanna "pop" my foot during that perfect kiss...i know, i know. Too many old, romance films, rite?
4] Fit: I don't mean like a beefcake. I want him to be fit as in he looks decent. For me, you have to care about what ppl think whether or not you want to. That whole, first impression means everything is big for me. I want him to care enough about his health to keep himself in good shape. Besides, I want something firm and strong to hold onto... whee
PERSONALITY (This is where it counts)
1] Good Sense of Humor: I'm CRAZY over guys who make me laugh. I hate guys who can't loosen up and be a little crazy and wild sometimes. I want him to make me feel like I'm always on edge, always "bubbly". But at the same time, I want him to know when to stop playing around. I want him to know when times for seriousness some around.
2] Supportive: When hard times fall on me, I wanna be able to lean on him. I wanna know that I can run to him and he'll be brutally honest. Even if that hurts me. I wanna be able to cry on his shoulder and go crazy. I wanna spaz and scream and yell and know that h understands.
3] Intelligent: It helps a relationship when both halves have brains. But, you know, that's just my opinion. I'd much rather have a nerdy brainiac than a popular airhead. At the same time, I don't want him to feel like he has to show me up in school or compete with me (though that is great motivation). To tell you the truth, I could never go out with a guy who doesn't care at all for his grades.
4] Thoughtful: I want him to CARE about me and the ppl around him. Not just what they think, but what happens to them. I want him to be sympathetic, empathetic and understanding. To feel and understand human pain through others is a beautiful and rare trait. But itz one that I want him to have.
5] Protective (slightly territorial): Itz a good feeling to have someone at your back to jmp in front of you. I want him to be brave enough to defend me and strong enough to succeed. I wanna know that if someone is out to get me, I have back-up to jump in and help.
Well...there's lots of other things besides that. Like being romantic, a sweet-talker, kind and generous...
But then again, as long as we love each other, I'm sure everything will work out. Because that's all that really matters. heart
