Who Will Love Me In The Winter?

I wouldn't have a second though 'bout the Fall
But I'm wondering who will love me in the Winter

Who Will Love Me In The Winter, Van Hunt

Oh shit. It's almost winter. All of the "good enough" men are being snatched up for fireplace snuggling. Pickings are getting slim. I didn't calculate my mental, get right plan to compensate for a winter boy. But I think I kinda want one.

So I decided that I almost think it is time for me to have conversations with men again. I haven't given out a phone number in a good four months. I can admit that I've been a little lonely and attention starved. I guess that's the first step.

But since my self-evaluation period, I've developed this laundry list of qualifications that I want out of a mate. A laundry list, not a end-all list...these are the only requirements list. I'm flexible.

Here is a list of requirements for the guy I would consider seeing over the next few months...or longer.

1. He must be able to tolerate my daily, obscure quoting of Jay-Z lyrics.

2. I only require one night/day a week of full on attention. Texting and instant messaging is highly recommended in other times of communications.

3. You know, I'd like to spend the night at a guy's house every now and then. It's been ages since I've spent the night somewhere.

4. Don't be weirded out that I don't mind talking about other women's physiques and shit. I'll even go to the strip club with you! I promise, it's not a trick.

5. He has to be a music lover. Yes, I will most likely argue more about why Lupe Fiasco sucks than you talking to another chick.

6. No chain restaurants, please. I'd rather spend $10 at a low key spot than $50 at Longhorn Steakhouse.

7. As far as style, I don't like guys who dress like rappers. I don't like guys who are ALWAYS dressed up either. But if we have to dress up, please don't be whiny about it.

8. Please have a life, and ways to fill your time. I promise on a stack of Sade CDs that I don't have to see you more than once a week. I am a busy, busy girl. On top of the fact that I am a introspective girl. I spend a lot of time alone. I don't mind hanging with friends and being friendly. But we don't have to be coupled up all the time.

9. Don't be intimidated by this PR thing I do, or overly impressed. PR is a seperate animal of its own, that requires to be extremely nice and almost flirty with other people. It requires me to have intimate conversations with important and/or famous people at times. It manifests nothing but business relationships and money.

10. Sex would be nice. Real nice.

Things I don't care about: cars, incomes, exes, shoe size, your jewelry, sports
