I think I am at a place where I would like a partner to complement me. It would be great to be spoiled by a man, I know, but I think being a manly man for me is different.
I would like someone who isn't afraid of taking a stand and making decisions, someone who will listen, someone who will argue with me, and in the end still respect my opinions even if we differ. Someone who isn't necessarily successful, but has within him the means to be successful. Someone who can understand me when I am in the career-bitch mode, and can ground me and remind me that I am not a superwoman, and its ok to be silly, to love girly things, pink stuff, and cry from time to time. Someone who wants to be with me, but also knows he needs to have time for himself, and so do I, so we also grow as individuals. Someone who will not be threatened by my intellect, but will be challenged and impressed by it. And someone who is a gentleman, but can be naughty in bed. I am also an artist trapped in a corporate world. And someone who drives would be a bonus, and someone who can help me with my goal of work life balance, including healthy activities would be awesome.
Music, Books, Movies, spontaneous stuff, eating on the streets, shopping at flea markets, spending time with my nephews and nieces, wine, good food, cooking, swimming (so long as I am in the water I am happy), listening to people, etc, etc.
And, when I say I've done a lot in my life, that's both good and bad. I want someone I can be that transparent with.
I don't want to say I want relationships ASAP, I don't even want to define what I want, but lets start with good conversation
So if you're still reading and your interest is piqued, please feel free to reply.
chasse heureux!
