Quoting adprousa:

I was talking to my best friend the other evening when he, as usual, inquired about my "love life". He then asked me if I had defined just what it is that I'm looking for in a woman. So I decided to define my desires so that women would know what was in my mind, the reason for my search for that special partner. Here it is...

As far as the type of woman I prefer, she is tall, stylish and confident. That's on the outside. Inside her resides a softness for her mate, a caring that allows for his imperfections, because she desires him in her life. There is a physical attraction... it comes from his smile, his eyes, his laughter, his overall personality and sense of himself... he compliments her and she likes that. His moments of thoughtfulness are remembered with warmth. Many conversations, both private and in public with friends and acquaintances have brought out his sense of intelligence and humor. He enjoys the funny sides of life yet can pick out a poignant card that's not too mushy, just the right sentiment for the occasion. He proves on a daily basis that her thoughts count and he wants to hear her opinions on everything. One of his best attributes is his ability to laugh at himself even as he takes life seriously. He looks forward to their adapting to life's twists and turns as they become more laid back with more time together.

She can count on him to be there when he needs to be. To listen and not need to change things... just listen. To randomly discuss almost any subject with an exploration that shows his patience, strength and maturity. The romance of life is very present in him... kisses on the nape of her neck, his arm around her waist, the opening of doors, the unexpected small gift placed where ordinary daily events will unveil it to her surprise.

His chief desire is that she becomes with time, his best friend, his confidant, his lover, his companion. He enjoys that they can walk through life and look at it from the same level, can dance close and enjoy the fit and movement of their bodies, he can catch her on a weekend leisurely wearing one of shirts, and it fits her visually and lovingly. She enjoys his realistic yet artistic approach to life... his capacity to see more than the average man because of his years of designing advertising for the masses... his ability to turn a phrase... to analyze how things are done and enjoy trying to understand the background that created them. She enjoys his love of history knowing full well his mind is adapting everything he learns to create a better platform for him to understand the world and it's vagaries.

He is someone who understands the meaning of giving space to his partner should she need it... yet at parties is close by if required and always ready to head off bores and wisk her away with champagne and treats. He holds the liaison of each other's modus operandi with respect and timely intervention... as she wishes. His knowledge of dressing sense always presents them publicly as that "Great Looking Tall Couple" whether in formal or casual moments. And there is dancing... where he can really keep time. His mother, from the time he was 9 years old, would send him out to dance lessons at the nearby girls club... which created a confidence on the dance floor that he carries with him today.

He doesn't need a woman, he just likes the smell, feel and taste of a woman in his life. He likes planning occasions for two, not for just one. He looks forward to their parity, their indulgences, their introspection and adventures together. Granted, he does love to be waited on but also understands that today's woman lives in a time of equality which is a sentiment he shares. She enjoys that he has manly hobbies, doesn't gamble or smoke, but will find time for pursuits that she wants them both to experience and enjoy. Their life is a combination of caring about the other's passions and desires.

At dinner parties, he will watch the other guests to be sure he picks up the correct utensil at the correct moment, something he learned at an Irish Castle in Northern Ireland, one Christmas Day Dinner long ago. He is a touching man, with public yet discreet attention to his mate... always ready to enjoy life's special moments with warmth and expressive connection, knowing full well that small yet intimate caresses expand her moods and put a smile on her lips. He is strong, yet sensitive, aware and very alive... things she has knowledge down deep of and which makes her look forward to their experiencing life together.
