Ahh...CC dating fantasies. So fun. I would most like to go to his/my house. He seems like more of the play or bookstore type, though.

I just voted for the bookshop/cafe option, but I'd like to qualify that. We'd start there, but eventually... Well, you're all smart girls. You know what I'm thinking  ! |

I was thinking we could go to a steamy romance play, and then I'd coyly suggest that we reenact some of the scenes...heh heh.  |

Uh... no, I think I'll drag him rowing on some lake or river or canal. Or maybe the cliffs or mountains. I prefer isolation with nature, with sunset, moon and stars, and proximity to water. I have this habit of skinnydipping, you see... oops, might get edited! ;D

I'd do extreme sports with him. He doesn't really seem like the type, though. He seems more into books and poetry and that sorta thing. |

I chose his/my house, for obvious reasons, hehehe! But he does seem the play and poetry kind of guy, which is so romantic! We could go see a play then come back to his/my house!  |

Hmmm...I'll take him anywhere near a body of water and then I'll PUSH him, nyahahahahaha. And then of course he'll resurface wet and all, his clothes clinging to his body. And then I'll insist he take his clothes off, and then I'll let him borrow my coat to cover him I am feeling really naughty today. Oh dear, I just hope he CAN swim. Do you guys happen to have this small requirement from guys for them to quite pass your little 'test'? Mine's swimming and playing the piano and not generally a coward (like the dark or heights) ... I don't know why. |

I have really high standards. I like poet-literary types who can also be very outgoing and funny. And I have a thing for actors, because I've always loved acting. A nice smile is good, too. And it's important that the guy has a sense of adventure, so he can protect the family, yada yada yada. But I don't want a guy who's too reckless (Orlando...). I think I'm gonna have a really hard time finding a husband. LOL. |

I'm told that some of my rules scream *issues* ::in a sing-song voice::
1) must be an intellectual... and should be able to write in coherent sentences.
2) CANNOT be a Western Cultural imperialist with a misplaced hero-complex
3) NOT an Asian-phile with pervy Asian-fetish
4) must like to read... and not limited to the realm of Fantasy Sci-Fi or Tom Clancy and the like-- no offense to the genres, but the guy has to like lit.
5) if he drives, he's gotta be able to check the oil and tire pressure, and he should know where the radiator is because that's how much I know.
6) must be relatively neat.
1, 2, 3 and 6 are the big deal-breakers for me. Oh, and if he gets within close proximity of my ear and his voice whispered or in low tones makes me cringe instead of shiver in a good way... that's a definate deal-breaker-- perhaps it's the first little test a guy must pass.

The more time moves on, the more my partner "requirements" become simultaneously less specific and more specific. He should love me more than I love him (as difficult as it could be; yet 2 men have done so). He has to look at me in a certain way (that look that says "OMG, I am so fascinated by you---you are beautiful inside and out and I love you NO MATTER WHAT"---which the same 2 men have done)----and the essence, the source of this should permeate the both of us whenever we are near to each other (or apart------which it still does). He would not "complete" me (for indeed, I am already, and have always been, complete----every single time I go to sleep at night and everytime I wake in the morning, I have been fully me, Donna. )---yet to look in each other's faces we would recognize our own reflections. Such intense imprints would we make, that--- forever, attuned people would be able to look at one and see how the other loves. Sooo you see.......it won't matter at all if he's read all the HP books--or JD Salinger--or LOTR---or if he enjoys watching tv as much as I do----or if he has dark or light hair...or what color his eyes are......as long as I have what I mentioned above.

Of course the abovementioned are what SANE women would or should look for (we are ALL sane, I presume?) We want intelligence, compassion, sense of humor, sense of adventure, sense of humanity, common sense, etc... But let's face it, it's not that easy someone will be up to the standards, right? It's not easy to change a person or make him be, and if we get too specific, that would be too 'soulmates-y'--- but I guess that depends if we or you believe in such thing. I don't know, I believe there are a lot of men out there who 'qualifies', but I guess it's not that easy to find someone who feels right. Hmm... so far I am attracted to the dark and brooding types (I used to be crazy for Jason Behr, Max of Roswell, but when I saw this picture of him he's too buff, well...) and haven't been with the blonde and blueyedboys type, but who knows (that also means I never found Prince William cute or anything) Oh well, sometimes it bothers me with the ongoing statistical fact that there are more women than men, and more men and women are coming out of the closet... I can foresee some kind of a global shift or transformation when it comes to relationships and mating. Like THIS. We cannot find men in closer proximity whome each of us finds ideal that's why we run to someone like Christian. And when it comes to emotions, we are just too busy with work and personal lives to be bothered with heartache, ergo 'distant admiration' is not that scary a thought at all. In a way, it is ideal, like if there comes the point that this whole Christian thing is simply turning into a heartache, we can not just go online or not see his movies, etc. Out of sight, out of mind. *SIGH* If only Christian could be real for a day, and we shall see  |

Yes we in general here <g> SEEM "sane"---lol----(at least the people who post here regularly)....*some* women are not, tho. Some women, and I've known a few....will settle for ANY guy....ughh.....I won't...and I *assume* at least some of you won't, right (?  )....that quote from "Ally McBeal": "I'd rather be alone than to be miserable with someone else." Hmm.....interesting that "transformation" you mention, Mandragora. Could it be because people used to not talk about it...?.....or.....are people spiritually becoming more and more aware that it is the *person* that matters most? Donna |

I feel very shallow, but looks do matter to me with guys. I want a guy who is decently attractive ~ although if I had to choose between a not-so-physically attractive nice guy and an obnoxious attractive guy, I would definitely choose the nice one. Then again, there's some guys who are so amazing, it makes them appear attractive, even if they aren't by usual standards. Okay, now I just sound like a snob. Shutting up now...

Christian, do you like our future?
