So there is a post in the forums asking for people to describe the perfect guy. Thats a bit of a stumbling point. What is a perfect guy? Does one even exist? If he does, and we met would I just get so fed up with his perfection that he would seem, to me, no longer perfect?

The stigmata of perfection aside, what am I looking for in my ideal guy?

Good looks are a plus, the specifics? well I'm not that picky, even if I have a slight preference for darker hair, also he shouldn't overly hairy, or at least well practiced in keeping the jungle in check. He should have a sense of humor, and a bit of a wild side. Affectionate is nice, but I want a guy who is comfortable and self confidant in his own right. Someone who doesn't need to hang all over me to reassure himself that we are together.

I am all for PDA's, its just not an environment I was brought up in. My family isn't now nor have they ever been overly huggy or whatever.

He should like the outdoors, camping and preferably dirt bike riding. I like them, and would definitely want to do more of them. I just don't have anyone to indulge in these activities with.

There was mention of compassion... Not a big deal to me, but I suppose one of us should be compassionate, to a degree.

There was also talk of a good credit score... WTF? is that really necessary? we're not filing for a loan together. My credit isn't as great as it could be. Sure I can trace that problem back to its genesis with a fair amount of certainty. However, just because my score isn't 760 doesn't mean I am here to mooch off of you. Any rate until things got well and serious I'd prefer keeping separate bank accounts anyhow.

Above everything else though, they should be attracted to for who I am, not who I could, or should, be. Just as I should be attracted to them for who they are. Life is shit, its the un-perfect souls we choose to share the journey with that make it worthwhile.
