I'm thinking strengths and weaknesses, rather than what I personally find attractive. And man, is this a different kind of dream guy than I've ever imagined . . .

Positives

  • Someone practical, a doer
  • Someone funny and goofy
  • Someone grounded
  • Someone confident and assertive
  • Someone social, with a knack for glossing things over
  • Someone good at cooking (or who likes to cook)
  • Someone outdoorsy
  • Someone thick-skinned
  • Someone math- and science-oriented
  • Someone willing to embarrass himself, especially for the amusement of children
  • Someone generous with compliments
  • Someone handy
  • Someone open-minded
  • Someone who puts people at ease
  • Someone who understands the value of leaving notes
  • Someone who likes to drive long distances
  • Someone punctual
  • Someone who asks for directions

Negatives

  • Someone kind of down-to-earth (so I could bring out his imaginative side)
  • Someone unorganized (so I could remedy that for him)
  • Someone not very introspective or reflective (I'd be reflective enough for both of us)
  • Someone a bit impulsive (so I could put my wariness to good use)
  • Someone who may or may not drink socially (because I could always be the designated driver)
  • Someone not-so-great at public speaking (so I could write or deliver his speeches for him)
  • Someone slapdash about grammatical rules (so I could copy edit for him)
  • Relatedly, someone all about the big picture (because then I could be the one to obsess over the details)
