What's your 'type'?

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

Mine is

Tall
Blue eyes
Thin but strong
Plays an instrument
Bit depressed

Omg 🫠

Well-disposed to the world
Morally serious
In other ways, not serious
Intelligent
Kind

I like a cheeky chappie sort, but a reliable one with a sense of humour, not a half dodgy one!
Strong, masculine, respectful of me.

In terms of looks, I don’t have one specific type.

Personality-wise I like men who are

• clever and with a brilliant general knowledge
• articulate
• curious about everything
• sarcastic, dry, cynical, extremely dark sense of humour
• not at all sociable
• calm and rational; I can’t bear overwrought emotional drama types
• thoughtful
• observant
• flippant rather than earnest
• left-wing
• progressive
• kind but not a pushover
• likes to have time to himself and thinks I should too
• loves travel and planning trips for us with zero help from me
• likes food
• likes football
• likes animals
• confident in his masculinity and doesn’t believe he has anything to prove
• absolutely filthy in bed

My DP really does fit the bill tbh.

For a partner?

Honestly it's so saccharine, but I've spent so long with my husband that I can't imagine anyone but him working for me anymore. A lifetime of inside jokes, communicating in our own learned shorthand, shared experiences, and being there for each other at our worst has shaped the pair of us to fit together perfectly.
A bit like a Hagrid of a man physically, and intelligent, down to earth, caring, a great dad, and funny, with values that align with mine, and the ability to cope with/manage my flaws.

On the telly? I have eclectic tastes, from Brad Pitt, to Benedict Cumberbatch (as Sherlock), to Mark Sheppard, and Michael B Jordan.

This reminded me of the nursery rhyme:
The daughter of the farrier
Could find no-one to marry her
Because she said
She would not wed
A man who could not carry her.
😂
For me I'm almost opposite to you op.
Really not a fan of blue eyes (sorry Paul Hollywood)
Deep voice
Big, broad-chested, dark haired (chestnut ideal), warm brown eyes
Please no depression!
Instrument playing not a problem but high IQ more essential
Oh and 6 foot plus. Guess that has something to do with the farrier, carry her stuff at some level.
Oh and NOT TOO SKINNY😫

Tall
Muscular
Red haired
Intelligent
Funny
Liberal
Well spoken
Massive hands 😳

Yes you are right about the big hands.

Someone gets it 😳😁 add veins as well.

You lost me at the veins.😕

good in bed

Oh and I forgot to add: Byronic.

Si king/ Mads mikkleson in one

😂

Oddly, I know someone who kind of answers to that surprising combination. He's a solicitor. Married I'm afraid.

I wish! But no, I have to make do with a bloke, lol.

Tall
Dark hair
Blue, grey or green eyes, ones that change
Olive tone skin
Very slim verging on skinny
Forearms that just do it for me
Intellectual at genius levels but daft so I can sometimes feel superior
Awful sense of humour
lovely smile
Disney Princess levels of animals loving him
Excellent at DIY

This is my DH

Women: tall, dark haired, curvy.
Men: tall, dark, heavy. I don't like skinny men's bodies.
Both: kind, funny, intelligent, hard-working.

Great Recall 😂😂😂

Not bothered about physique but must have impeccable values, be kind to all people and animals, appreciate nature and be clever.

Yeah I wasn't sure if this was of the memory-related variety or when he runs off!

Jesse Bloom (in Industry).

And he’s out of jail now …

Tall
Dark
Artistic or Practical
Nice teeth
Smells lovely
Likes to travel
I am also bizarrely fussy about footwear - the wrong shoes can really put me off
DP ticks all of the above although with size 14/15 footwear his choices are limited!

Looks like Dominic West.

Devoted to me like Pierce Brosnan is devoted to his wife.

If I had that, I ld want for nothing else.

Dark hair, OR silver/grey/salt n pepper
Older than me
Funny, kind and nice - honestly not bothered about looks
Likes watching sports
Not too muscly (I love a dad bod!)
Nice forearms (that ideally he shows off by rolling up the sleeves - swoooooon)
Massive willy

Someone kind who finds me funny. I want someone I like hanging out with not someone who uses me as a baby machine and doesn't even ask what I like. The bar is so low for men atm a lot of them have forgotten we are human. Men carrying babies in those slings make me melt - I want a protector who doesn't have to go to the gym and be hyper masculine to do it.

Tall, strong, dark, tanned, nice eyes and smile, clever but not pompous, kind and supportive. Handy at DIY and/or gardening would be super helpful! Someone who has nice clothes/scrubs up well for special occasions but is reasonably laid back most of the time, not an obsessive gym bro. Not a football fan.

Earns a reasonable wage and is financially secure and responsible.

I've just opened the door and there is no queue of suitable guys outside. Rude.
But probably for the best as dh is off work this week and might have an opinion 🙃
