Day 6 - 5 Ways to Win My Heart.
This would be easy if my heart could be won. Not so easy. I could be glib and say:
Do things my way.
Do as I say.
Do what I want.
It's about me, me, me.
SEX.
But that's just insane and not true. I wouldn't want to be in love or be loved by a Stepford Wife.
Here are my basic 5:
1. Intelligence - You need to be intelligent. I don't want someone to be a brainiac but
you can't be a complete idiot. I need to be able to have a conversation with you. Share ideas. Agree and disagree. Of course, if you throw your intelligence in my face, I'll cheat on you with your best friend and throw that into your face.
2. Passion - You need to be passionate. About me, about something. I don't need a wallflower in my life. Hopefully, you like the same things as I do. This brings us to...
3. Common Ground - We need to have something in common. Be it TV, Books, Movies, Museums, etc. The more we have in common; the more you can capture my fascination and my desire to stick around you.
4. No Gifts - What impresses me is not a lady who wants to buy me things. I don't need things. I can get my own things. What I can't get is a hug, a cuddle or a kiss without YOU. That's all the gift I need.
5. Independence - Respect my need to be independent as I would respect any of your needs. I don't need a Mommy, a babysitter or a clingy soul sucking succubus. Be a friend, confidant and lover.
Of course, none of the above would matter if you look like this. I just ain't gonna happen.
