Is He Mr. Right?
Have you ever fathomed the thought of what the perfect man would be like? What would he look, smell, taste and feel like? What would make him so superior over others? Would his good looks overpower his personality or would you be satisfied with a beautiful mind and a high spirited soul?
I think every woman has to a certain extent pictured that person in her mind. Does he really exist? Personally I think every woman idea is different. Mine, intelligent, knows himself, sense of humor, looks to a certain extent but they are not everything, sexual chemistry and the biggest of all a job so I do not have to support his sorry ass...lol
I know so many ladies that search for this perfect man and never find him. Mainly because they're perception of the perfect man is blurred. A perfect man doesn't have to be a top model or a brain scientist. If looks and money is what you're after then I'd have to tell you, don't expect him to be perfect. It's almost hard to find the good-looking, money and loving man combo. Instead you have to look within yourself to find what it is you perceive to be the perfect man. Maybe pick one quality that has to be a must-have and stick with it. If you meet someone who touches on more than one quality, consider yourself lucky.
Personally I feel the perfect man is never perfect to begin with. As a woman you have to mold him, develop him into that perfection, until one day you wake up and say, "My hard work has paid off", just kidding, I know some men might be a little appalled by that last sentence. Honestly speaking though, I've come across a lot of men and let me tell you, I've seen potential. The bottom line is, are you willing to spend time with him to make him into what he could be? Not many women are. They expect men to know their every want and need at the beginning of the relationship. Not possible; no matter what you say, men can never fully understand a woman's mind.
A perfect example of this is a couple I have known for 13 years; he only knows half of his wifes likes/dislikes. She on the other hand can read him like a book; sometimes he doesn't even have to use words to express himself because she can look at him and know what he's thinking. Some may call her a mind reader but the truth is she has taken the time to know him, understand him, and love him in all the right ways. If every man did that, I guarantee the divorce rate would drop significantly, but that's another subject I won't get into right now.
In the end, you have to really assess what it is you want in a man, go after it; never settling for someone who is mediocre (and by 'mediocre' I mean someone who has some of the qualities you want but no potential or desire to change/improve). When you find someone with the potential to be a great lover, hold on to them, and help them grow. Stand by them through the storm and you'll have more sunny days to enjoy.
