Understanding Men? Have you googled that phrase? You will thank me later. I must admit being a “guy” I discovered a lot of truth in the results.

Did you know the 36.5 Truths About Men? – Source Women's Health Magazine.

The two that stood out for me were Number 1 and Number 25.

Truth Number 1:
I don't want to talk about it.
I want to figure it out.

Truth Number 25:
I don't fear commitment; I fear containment. A guy needs his space — with room for a table saw, his album collection, and a plasma TV.

Describing my ideal match would be someone with a great smile, spontaneous, independent and goal oriented. Kindness, honesty and integrity are essentials for both of us. We possess confidence & strength in character - pillars for each other. We both place a high value on intelligence - I want to challenge your mind, and I need you to challenge mine. For me, an intellectual match is critical for mutual respect, long-term compatibility and greater sexual intimacy.

You are ambitious, with a successful career. I am ambitious, well-educated and my career brings me personal reward as well as financial stability. I'm very active, fit, and I frequent the gym - you as well.

My nature is fun, spirited, outgoing, & I love to laugh/be silly - I am also mature and serious - you are familiar with these attributes in yourself. We work hard and play hard --we love life's luxuries and adventures, but we are just as content on the couch with a DVD (or just each other!).

You are a non smoker please.

Leave me in a room full of kids, your friends, your family or a group of academics - I'll fit in! We will be lovers and best friends. Chemistry between two people is a very powerful emotion; hoping it might be you!

The first date has to be casual and if you make it to Date #2 I'd say things went well the first time around. :)
