Saturday night lounge game: describe your "perfect" guy or gal

you know, the type of person that if they existed you'd be totally smitten!

mine is nonexistent(to my knowledge) :rofl:

personality wise -
he'd be smart and funny, sarcastic but also serious, liberal and open minded, romantic but not sappy, artsy and fun

and being slightly superficial -
tall and lanky, sort of nerdy and geeky, nice smile, and i have a thing for guys with brown eyes

your turn!

Really, really, really smart.

Good sense of humor.

Not a drug addict.

Looks like this:

I mean, where are you gonna find someone who fits that criteria? :P

;)

Keep fighting the good fight, XemaSab!

who is smart, quirky/interesting, and interested in the same general types of things that I am... but not the exact same things. Because if we were interested in just the exact same things, there'd be nowhere to go from there. Whereas if we're into the same KIND of things, we have enough overlap to have a starting place, and enough not overlapped already to have somewhere to go.

A quick wit and artsy sensibilities are always a plus. :)

*edit* Oh, and it kinda helps if they're attracted to me too... little details. :P

sorry Ava. :P You're too young.

*another edit* Oh, and as far as looks go, I tend to prefer 'cute' to 'pretty'... I think it's 'cause I got used to being the pretty one in the relationship. :P

At my age and general state of dorkiness I can't afford to be too picky.

Tall and very good looking. Great smile that extends to his eyes. Funny, romantic, hard-working, generous, thoughtful, appreciative, self-confident.

Loves the outdoors, is not intimidated by a smart, independant woman, and absolutely adores me. :)

I'm glad you found each other. :hug:

and him! :pals:

:evilgrin:

you're in the will...

:spray:

isn't everybody terminal?

That's the main thing I look for in a female.

And then I look for a sense of humor, sarcasm, and liberal.

And for superficial, I'd love a schoolgirl.

The 2009 Lamborghini Gallardo has right about 600 horsepower, but makes for a fine daily driver, unlike the Reventon or the Ferrari 599.

BTW, this will be the second time today I've made a certain someone hate the Italian supercar genre with my silliness. :rofl:

:rofl:

i like to keep the bar low.

:rofl:

:rofl:

:loveya:

Keep in mind, I've never been married. :)

my ex-wife filled out the rest of your description... (her dad used to joke that she was really adopted from Dolly Parton) though, her hair was shoulder-length or so when we were married.

of course, you'd also have to deal with somebody who did almost no housework and had a very poor concept of fiscal responsibility. But, that was a while ago, maybe she's changed?

is smart but not someone who thinks they are smarter than everyone else, someone who is easy to talk to, a little pevvy, attractive to me, attracted to me, mostly someone who is compassionate and loving towards others and not judgmental or mean by nature.

Also spunk and fight make for a little more fun, passionate, loves music, animals, and playing...

:hi:

- understands me as me.. aka an insane person.

- still loves me after insane shows

- can deal with my baby --(not so much an issue now.. my bebbe is 21.. OMG I'm, oooold)

- Likes sex .. poison levels must be maintained

- can be relaxed with me always

- is honest and open to, perhaps... , a fault

- loves bebbes

- loves critters

- wants to change the world

I could go on, but I won't cause I'm in l.o.v.e. oh fuck I tend to babble.

*cuuchi cuchii kooooooo*

:hi:

Not the greatest looking man and his body was badly scarred from an attempted murder.

But he could read me like a book. He always knew what I wanted - whether it was some weird sexual thang or what I wanted for deinner, And that is so cool - to know what I want and provide it before I even know I want it.....


Khash.

All other qualities negotiable. :P

I'd definitely say you are the perfect man.

:loveya: :hug: :pals: :D

Thank you!

Oh, and the door is unlocked. Just come on in.

And now he's going to try to argue with me about that, but really, all italian cars are shitty. The best case scenario is that they're fast enough that you're supposed to wreck them before anything major falls off.

if she owned a liquor store.

Perfect guy:
A rebel, maybe one with a motorcycle, but also intellectual, the kind who could play chess and have a conversation about poetry.

Perfect girl:
An artist, kind of a goth but not the snobby kind, with a twisted sense of humor. Being Japanese wouldn't hurt either.

:P

at least once! :hi:

But right now I need a car for my main mode of transit anyway, since I drive someone around who would be physically incapable of riding on a motorcycle.

You're still very young... there's plenty of time! :-)

With gas prices being what they are these days, odds are good that I'd probably just get a wimpy little scooter to save money. :P

intelligent and shows an interest in the world...kind....wacky sense of humour....likes independent and slightly loopy women. ;) Has a serious side, and an interest in history and the arts. Well-spoken and well-mannered. Clean. Gives me my space.

Looks....I don't know, though it's weird, I'm tiny but I like tallish males. :shrug: but this is not a huge thing with me. Thing is, I don't know what "type" of man I prefer, either the chemistry is THERE, or it's not.

Perfect man for moi- :9
very smart
artistic
loves nature
has a wicked sense of humor
very very tall
loves the blues and classic rock
non-smoker
long dark hair and brown eyes
open minded




Edit: I'm 5'11... being with a short dude would be a big no no for me. :)

I'm just looking
Just looking for a way around
It disappears this near
You're the rod I'm water
I'm just looking for the divine hammer

One divine hammer <2x>

I'm just looking for one divine hammer
I'd bang it all day
Oh the carpenter goes bang
Bang bang
I'm just looking for the divine hammer

One divine hammer <2x>

I'm just looking for a faith
Waiting to be followed
It disappears this near
You're the rod I'm water
I'm just looking for one divine hammer

One divine hammer
Divine hammer...

:rofl:

Likes Classical or Jazz.....is NOT a doormat...doesn't take life very seriously ....honest and loving...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

:)

a tad too young for me. . .

o well - we shall both keep looking!!

AAAAGGGHHH!!!!

hmmmmmm

...you see, my house is...I mean, I really, really need to wash my hair.
Oh...and I gave you the wrong phone number...it's really 512-1212.

..And...here's a picture of me.

.
.
.

so where are ya?

been waitin' for an hour and a half already.


by-the-by - what an adorably sexy pic of yourself!!

:evilgrin:

but it's very painful for me to describe. He left me to my internet addictions and always made sure I had a good machine do surf with. He was HAWT!! A good looking guy. (gay guys tend to be picky) and he loved me and cuddled me every night.I lost him after I picked up the bottle,I still wish him the best.

but lost him to cancer 7 months ago.

i'm so darned lonely and sad.

hmmmm . . .

would be someone totally enamored with me (as i with him) and has the laid back,
universally-accepting personality of an Alan Alda. Of course, he would be sexy,
tall, trim, intelligent, fun-loving . . . .


sigh, - does such a person exist??


:shrug:

Wait... forget I said that. I call dibs on that plan. :P

i've laid claims to him some time ago . . .


or, at least, someone definitely with the same personality traits.


sigh.

I never really discovered him until I started watching M*A*S*H reruns, and that was fairly recently.

wouldn't we?


have you seen the movie "Same Time, Next Year"?

sigh.

Although our debate could be quite easily solved by asking, "Is he straight?"

'cause if not, I got dibs. If he is, then you have dibs. :P

sorry . . .


but i'm sure there's an Alan Alda out there for you, too.

sigh

Moot point I s'pose, since I still haven't invented that time machine.

please let me know . . .


there are a few guys that I would go back in time for!

then once I'm financially taken care of I can think of doing other stuff for fun. :P

very admirable, indeed.

Seriously though, I'd totally be responsible if I won the lottery. I'd invest most of the money, start a business or two, make sure I helped pump money back into the local economies and whatnot... THEN I'd blow the rest on booze and hookers.

If you do it in the other order you usually never make it to the responsible spending part. :P

:hug:

Wise spending, THEN booze and hookers. :P

The moral of the tale: be careful what you wish for.

have you since changed your *perspective* of the perfect gal?

Intelligent. Talented. Creative and artistic. (especially writing) Likes literature, film and music. Pretty Liberal politically. Personable, especially laughs at all my jokes. I like women who are interested in all kinds of things, culture, the world etc. It makes for interesting conversation. I want somebody who will let me be really good to them. I hate that some people treat niceness as a weakness, I want somebody I can treat fantastic and treat special, without having to worry about having my good nature exploited.

Typically I go for shorter women because I'm short. That mainly evolved because alot of times women aren't interested in a guy several inches shorter than they are. I just sort of started preferring shorter women (around 5'0 give or take) but really, I don't care if they're tall as long as they like me. I don't care if a woman isn't perfect, I'm not, an average body type is fine, she doesn't have to have ripped up abs or anything, I just like the person. You have to have some type of physical attraction, but that spark can come from many different things.

Ava, I can hardly wait to see whom you fall in love with; he'd better be just as spectacular as you are! In the meantime, I believe you just described John Cusack. ;-) He's single, you know. He'll have to wait a few years. Then again, it will be WORTH IT!

The perfect man. Hmmm. Well, besides flvegan? :rofl: If I could specify his personality, he'd be intelligent, funny, thoughtful, kind, easy to talk with, and a little geeky. He has to be a Democrat. He must be able to laugh at himself. He should also be dazzled by me.

The physical? Oh, there's someone currently walking the planet that I think is the perfect man. He's tall, has dark hair, brown eyes, muscles on his muscles, and the most gorgeous smile. I just keep telling myself that I'm sure I wouldn't be quite so entranced IRL. In the meantime, I was always into tall, dark and handsome, and I married a blue-eyed blond.

Go figure. :party:
Julie

for a start...

:D

How'd I do?

:-P

:P

I have a higher post count!

She's a geek; that'll put me over the edge!


My Larry Niven books, my Wierd Al library, and a superior post count! I am the MAN!!!!


:rofl:

just how many Niven books you got in your library? :P

About 20, maybe. About 7 of them are the "Man-Kzin Wars" shared universe series, so I don't know if those count, though. :-)

Any more than one would ascribe the huge library of Star Wars books to George Lucas. :P

"The Legacy of Herot", "The Mote in God's Eye", "Ringworld", "N-Space", "The Gripping Hand", "The Smoke Ring", "The Integral Trees", a few original edition paperbacks of his short story collections from the '70s, "Lucifer's Hammer".... and a couple more that I can't read the titles of from this distance.

And I've read a few others, including "Footfall", "The Ringworld Engineers", and "Oath of Fealty".

:-)

I keep lending it to people, then never getting it back. :P

Somebody super smart, funny, kind and gentle, yet fiercely protective when needed,liberal and open minded, romantic...
I do actually know somebody who almost meets all these criterions, and yes I am totally smitten.....but not sure it goes the other way though he likes me well enough as a friend.

Not just sexual, I want someone who feels things, has opinions and isn't afraid to discuss them but has an open mind. Someone who is curious to learn new things. Someone who allows me to be me. Someone who doesn't try to control me or belittle me or put labels on me. Liberal, artistic, confident, dry humored, and intelligent. I don't want to have to explain any more jokes.

As for physical attributes... I like tall and lanky, darkish hair, I dig tattoos but not if they cover everything, not overly hairy (chest is fine, back not so much) I'm attracted more towards the casual jeans, tshirt guy rather than the suit and tie guy.

So close. "tall and lanky" so not me. :(

:P

"tall and lanky" is negotiable. ;)

:hi:

I've had a serious case of the gooeys for her for as long as I can remember. I get alerts from TCM when one of her movies is coming up.
John
Number two would probably be Ann-Margret.
Polly says Omar Sharif does it for her.

Brilliant (and I mean really stunningly intelligent and educated), wickedly, irreverently funny, out-reads me (!!), deeply kind and ethical, gentle, talented and creative (musician), active, adventurous, passionate, and a bit of a freak in bed. The bonus is that he's also tall and very, very handsome. Damn.

:loveya:

He has to make me laugh.

Intelligence
He needs to be able to hold a conversation, and know about a variety of subjects, especially current events.

Things in common
My perfect guy would like sports, movies, music, dancing, clubbing and have a sense of spontaneity.

Looks
yes looks are important..you have to be attracted to the person. I prefer someone a bit taller than me with a somewhat athletic build..I don't have the perfect body so I can't expect them too, but some muscles (but not too roided out) would be nice.

I like my men darker (and not a fake tan). I like dark hair and dark eyes.

And a nice package always helps! LOL! :rofl: :hide: :evilgrin:

heart.

What, did you expect a different answer? :evilgrin:

With a little fire underneath. :)

Absurdly intelligent, funny, witty, sarcastic, open-minded, romance without the sap, creative in some way (words or music or paints or something), a geek for something. We'd have half-raunchy inside jokes and would sit next to each other immersed in our own things without feeling the need to talk. We'd listen to music together and wonder at little blips of phrases of word or song. We'd analyze the hell out of many things. Our conversations would just leapfrog, one after the other, half-improvised, so easy, so free.

He'd be either dark-haired and olive-skinned or have red hair and anything else.

can juggle and make terrible puns that make me groan in pleasure-pain. Oh wait. I already married him! Love you, Orrex.

Love you, too, House of Kewpie!

My perfect woman is smart and artistic and has a great sense of humor, coupled with a superhuman tolerance for incredibly witty puns. Also, she needs to be very pretty.


Success!

and I shall miss him every day of my life.

He was everything that was right. Everything I needed.

:hug:

:hug:

:hug:

Somebody who is extremely honest and would never lie to me or cheat. She would be progressive politically and enjoy talking about politics. She would be compassionate and very accepting of who I am. She would be VERY open-minded in the bedroom. :evilgrin: She would be kind and patient with others. As for the physical, it's hard to say. I truly like all different shapes and sizes of women. I would definitely want there to be mutual attraction, though.

by motherly love...



and his father, this really old coot...

She would love me for who I am and not who or what she wants me to be.
I don't care what she looks like.
As long as I missed her when she was away,and feel bathed in pure joy when she is near.
I would like to be able to trust her enough not to break my heart but love her so much it would kill me if she did.
I'd like her to be a friend.

Oh and I'd also like her to have nice breasts :D

"Oh and I'd also like her to have nice breast"

;)


:loveya: :hi: :hug:

Hell she can have three :dunce:
Hey you :hi: :loveya:
I'll fix that thank you my friend

A hippy type guy, loves photography, artsy and fun who works at a job where he is creative and makes a living, likes to ride horses, surf and hang at the beach.

on the physcial side, fairly tall, long hair a must, but not too long, handsome...hmm, kinda like this guy.....

Has been smart, strong-willed, outgoing, talkative, left-of-center politically, and shown an obvious lack of common sense by going out with me.

Physically, I've dated almost as much of a variety of women as Captain Kirk...(unfortunately, green women are in short supply here on Earth, so I can't ever catch up...)

I think 6 feet tall has been the tallest woman I've dated (I'm an honest 5'9" - meaning I'm taller than most guys who say they're 5'9" or 5'10")

"I'm looking for a dime, who's top of the line, cute face, little waist and a big behind."
Which about sums it up for looks. Personality wise, I'm into girls who are nerdy, and snarky-verging-on-cruel in their humor.

If you know someone like this, remind them that I am a handsome devil, and then PM me their phone number.

:spray: ah the wisdom of the ying yang twins :rofl:

he wouldn't be AROUND all the time - so I'd like to date a homicide detective or doctor or someone like that :D

:D

and married him almost 4 years ago. Held pretty high standards for the right guy since I was a single mother. He is handsome and makes me laugh. Holds me when I cry and talks with me through the rough times. Never really "fight". Have had a few disagreements, however we have talked them through. Best $24 I spent to write him back on Yahoo Personals.

one who can have an intelligent conversation on politics or the red sox, be able to have a good laugh (even at ones own expense), enjoy the outdoors, and then have a vigourous nekkid romp throughout the house.

smart, sarcastic, hilarious (he has a sharp wit but can also be a complete goofball), liberal, laid back, fun, compassionate, affectionate. he's a musician, he cooks, he is mechanically-inclined, he plays cards with me. he's got big strong arms and strong hands that have known physical labor (my two biggest weaknesses). and, maybe most importantly, he gets along with my dad, my sister and my friends.

I cannot believe how many details and expectations so many of you have. I hope you all the best.

and there are no perfect people

i don't think people were listing expectations... rather hypotheticals... "what would your perfect match be like"

geez.. this is the lounge.. chill out - this is supposed to be a fun and goofy thread.

Despite the context, I still see a lot of future disappointments or happy surprises for many single people on this thread.

Excepting one dedicated to living spiritual principles, that is, and then what would be the point of lower interaction?
