    um... no. no, i'm sorry, the described is NOT the perfect boyfriend.

    the perfect boyfriend is as follows:

    tall enough that I can wear heels or secure enough that he doesn't care if I do
    makes enough money to support himself
    treats his mom (or mother-figure) and mine with love and respect
    shares hobbies and fave TV shows in common with me
    agrees with me on The Big Stuff like marriage and children and faith
    makes me laugh and makes me think
    sexually compatible
    secure enough not to care that I have guy friends (and some of them are straight)
    I don't care about hair color or eye color, but laugh lines and useful hands will get me every time
    great booty

    and I think most women would agree with the majority of this list

    QFT

    and can cook. get in the kicthen!!!

    Nope! My boyfriend is much shorter, lighter and we secretly like to watch kid movies together. He's perfect :love:

    This is more like perfect "gay husband" material. Perfect boyfriend attributes:
    1) Athletic
    2) Funny
    3) Kind
    4) Honest
    5) Self-reliant
    6) Drinks Scotch
    7) Can start a fire
    8) Can fish or hunt
    9) Will win a fight 9/10 times
    10) Finishes last ;)

    "gay husband" :huh:
    I think your list could be for a straight or gay man.

    The "gay husband" comment was directed toward the original post. Read the first line again, it says this list is for her "perfect boyfriend", not for the gay husband comment lol...

    I need my glasses, hold on....
    ooohhh ok. lol. I couldn't figure out for the life of me what was she getting at :blushing:

    I've got most of those covered. :P
    Some of those would take some time getting to know the other person, to learn if the compatibility is there.

    I'm a girl who meets 2 of these.... date me

    Judging by your pic, you're certainly tall enough.

    Hahaha! :laugh:


    And brunettes with blue eyes are cute, but I think blondes are pretty great, too. But I agree with everyone else that mentions how much more important personality is than looks. :smile:

    how about just one:

    respects me and treats me well?

    If we were living in a perfect world that would be the one!

    This^^
    WIthout a doubt I agree but the perfect gf one was completely superficial just as well. I think it was meant all in fun. Sure your gonna have completely shallow people out there and that list is it. But unless your meeting someone on a blind date or over the internet I think a lot of it is physical. I saw my fiance 5 years ago, I wanted my fiance, so I went and got him.:love: He'll never own up to the story but hey it was physical attraction that was the first thing and then the respect, funny personality, sweet heart and genuine support come. :happy:

    There is absolutely zero way that I could ever settle on what's "perfect" for me. I just like so many varieties of men. In fact, every time I meet a new man I'm attracted to, I realize that I pretty much like it all. Body types, ages, personalities, everything. As long as you're fun, make me laugh, and there is some sort of initial attraction, that's perfect enough for me.

    A local radio station did an online poll of what attributes make up the perfect boyfriend, and now they are rolling it into a contest to find the area's "perfect boyfriend". So let me know if you meet the following...we can split the prizes:
    - brunette
    - blue eyes
    - 6 foot 3 inches tall
    - 215 pounds
    - Has pecks and a butt
    - Makes at least 70K a year
    - Likes include: fruity drinks, shopping, and "Orange is the new Black"

    Aw, it's so cute that you think that list is even close to enough for a woman. :flowerforyou:

    smart man

    :flowerforyou:

    I've got a list at least that long that has nothing to do with looks, likes or money. That *kitten* is just bonus material.
  • We all have different tastes. I only agree with one, the "blue eyes"...

    Things not mentioned that I like is a man who knows how to fix things around the house. Will go out on a cold morning and get my car started when it doesn't want to work. Fixes my computer when it goes blank or gets stuck. Mends things like a broken leg on the coffee table. Collects screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, nuts, bolts, nails, tape measures. Owns tools like sanders, drills and saws. Keeps my yard mowed and owns a weedeater. Installs security lights, things like that, where he makes my home safe for me.

    Can build a fire in the fireplace to perfection.

    Looks sexiest in a flannel shirt, well-worn jeans and work boots.

    Knows how to calm a screaming baby, change a diaper and warm a bottle just right.

    Keeps me nice and warm at night and never wears pajamas.
