seems Leah and I

both agree that the first list was better than the less wordy list....so i'm going to repeat it here with a rather pertinent amendment:

- minimum 5"9
- intelligent
- kind, caring, compassionate
- emotionally available
- actually available (yes I know sounds funny, but it's kinda important)
- a good communicator
- open and able to express and handle emotions
- in some way wants to make the world a better place
- likes travel, learning
- ideally likes reading and sport
- has good relationships with friends
- is successful (in his way)
- is comfortable in his own skin
- drives own car
- good sense of humour
- passionate
- preferably does not smoke!!
- wants to be in a committed relationship
- cares about other people
- is not a workaholic
- has a well developed sense of self
- has a healthy inner child
- has integrity
- is financially secure
- is courageous
- is demonstrable
- is basically one of my best friends; and
- thinks i am wonderful and loves me for who i am.

and sure it seems a long list, but i don't think it is...so universe if you are listening, then i am determined to keep my eyes and heart open so when he arrives, i will recognise him...

thank you!
