The perfect man. There is no such thing but there is the "perfect for me man". Which isnt really about how someone looks or that they like the same music but how they make you feel. I Am not looking for a man but I'll play along anyway.

The perfect husband would...
-Cook because I don't very well but will let me watch him as he does and even assist.
-when I have burnt dinner (which happens) and am on the verg of tears picks up take out along with some flowers because he understands that I tried.
-fix all the broken stuff without too much swearing.
-would make me laugh even during the hardest times of my life.
-Understand that I am not perfect physically (I have had 3 kids!)but he thinks I am anyway.
-Ride a motorcycle or at least a dirtbike.i dono why.
-know I think he is amazingly strong and comes to my rescue much of the time but knows that I can hold my own too.
-Want to take me places I have never been.(not necessarily expensive places)
-know a relationship takes constant work on both parts.
-Enjoy holding hands even after many years together.
-know everything I have done or thought that I may be ashamed of and loves me anyway.
-laughs at himself and reminds me not to take myself too seriously.
-knows who he is and the path that has made him that person..and knows the same about me.
-Will sit through chick flicks knowing he'll most likley be rewareded in the end.
-Put his children First Before anything and never needs to apoligise for that.
-be a good father and has the same basic beliefs about child rearing.
-adore my children as I would also adore his.
-Try to share his special intrests with me but understands if I am not as excited as he is about his new carborator. And he sits there while I show him my new pink shoes and I understand why he's not that excited either.
-Understand that I do not need a man but I want to need him.
-Always makes me feel like i am the only woman in the room.
-truly listen when I speak.
-Not mind when I babble and finds "interesting" ways to quiet me.
-know about stuff I don't and is always teaching me something new. And giving me things to think about.
-is not skinny, I prefer the teddy bear type.
-doesn't take me for granted.
-enjoys slow passionate kisses and knows all those little spots that make me quiver when he kisses them.
-Appreciate that I have a brain.
-Does little things to let me know he is thinking of me and understands how important those little things are to me.
-Appreciate all the little things I do for him.
-smell like a man and gets dirty. I know I Am wierd but when a man comes in after doing "man work" and he is dirty and smells like motor oil I am compelled to take him to the shower and help him "clean up".
-understand that I am a girly girl and doesnt mind(too much) waiting for the bathroom as I get prettied up
-Think all my irritating habits are "cute"
-Like my squeaky voice.
-Look alittle rough but is really just a marshmellow.
-Is the person I can count on for anything and always comes to me with all his problems.
-has an open mind and is always interested inm trying new things.
-knows I need affection,to be touched held and to brush that peice of hair out of my face when he looks into my eyes.
-knows we dont always have to love the same things as long as we love each other.
-Is a hard worked. Its just sexy when a man works with his hands as long as he has brains to go with it.
-I would never worry where he is if he's not home because I know he is doing his best to get home to us when other women may have to question ..I never would.
-would hold me up if I were sick/weak and would let me do the same for him.
-Is someone I wouldnt want to change and doesnt want to change me.
-Can express his feelings
-undrestands that if another man trys to flirt with me I would gently dismiss himand leave wrapped in your arms. There is no reason to beat up every guy who tries I can usually handle it and If I cant I will let you know.
-Knows if I am sad sometimes I need to talk, sometimes to be cheered up,SOmetimes I need two strong arms around me to let me know I't will be ok and sometimes all of the above.
-wants to spend time with the kids
-knows that even after years together I will still get alittle pink in the cheeks when he talks sweet to me..and he likes to make me pink.
-knows that sometimes I need to be taken out and made to feel like a princess and other times I need to be home in my PJs cuddled up with him on the couch.
-Is my best friend
-and most importantly when he puts his arms around me..I feel completly safe.

Didn't expect that to be so long! Didnt realize how picky I am till just now. But if I were looking for someone to sweep me off my feet most of these things would be required.
k.

I'm a man of many mysteries and sides....SO many I'm practically round!!
