Someone Like Me...

I've been extremely busy lately... finally got a chance to write a blog post... The idea came to me last week... shows how committed I am to my work (or more of being commmitted to getting a paycheck at the end of the month)

Anyway, I had a revelation last week. I have finally realised what kind of person I actually want in a partner/girlfriend/wife/fling etc... I want someone who is just like me!!

They always say that opposites attract. Of course there's that urge to 'try something new'... but if that's not your preference in the first place, then how long could you actually stand a person who's basically nothing like you.

At work, when you need to hire somebody, you would find somebody who you can get along with. Somebody who thinks like you. You do that so you can work well together and the work gets done. Why doesn't it apply to somebody who you basically spend the rest of your life with.

From a scientific point of view, your brain recognises similarities that you share with people. You become more comfortable with people who talk like you, act like you, share the same ideals as you.

So what kind of person should I look for? Well, I need somebody who wears their heart on their sleeve... somebody who shows me that they love me. Telling me that they love me, and then treating me like crap does not count. They have to appreciate me. They have to be able to tell the world that we are in a relationship. They have to be able to have public show of affection (ie kiss in public) and not care what other people think, because there's only two people in the world that matter, and it's the two of us.

They have to be close to their family. They have to understand that family comes first...

They must have lots of friends. They must understand that there are times when we need 'a guys nite out' or in her case 'a girls nite out'... she has to be able to join in with my friends.

They must love to pamper me and love to be pampered...

They must be outgoing... willing to try new things...

They must not be lazy... if you are active, then you feel healthier...

They must know that age is just mind over matter... if you don't mind, then it doesn't matter...

They must love to read... and be able to discuss any topic, from current events, government policies, music, movies, business, all the way to who let the dogs out... ;)

Could you guys recommend anybody?
