My Dream Man

He makes me feel good about myself, he makes me feel special and unique in this world. He makes me happy more often than not.
He is someone I wouldn’t mind leaving my five year-old self with.
He understands that men and women are equal. He is looking for a partner, not someone to take care of him and to cook his meals and clean his bathroom. He will respect me, and respects women.
He has honor, a rare virtue in modern society. He respects himself and is striving to be a good person and create positive energy in the world. He doesn’t cheat and lie because he is afraid of being caught; rather he doesn’t cheat and lie because he is a man of honor and respects himself as such.
He will hold my hand, and hold me. He will hold me when I cry, hold me when I am sick, hold me when I look like crap- and tell me that I'm beautiful.
He is mature.
He is confident in himself and in his place in the world, enough so that he can laugh at himself. He has a sense of humor.
He has a giant heart and is kind to all, great and small. He is not only nice to those with more power who could help him out in return one day, but to small children, animals and waitresses as well. He is caring and considerate of your feelings, even when they don’t make sense.
He realizes that strength and self-worth come from within, not from external factors like a fast car, fat bank account or big muscles.
He holds the door for other people- not just for women he is trying to bed.
He is not afraid to show affection because he knows that giving a hug or displaying emotions does not make him less of a man. It makes him human.
He splits the household chores 50/50;  He realizes that my time and work is just as valuable as his and does not expect me to clean up after him.
He is not threatened by my success, because he is successful too- or at least striving for success. He knows there is enough success to go around.
He offers his seat to old people on the bus.
He is my fan, and lets me know this on a regular basis with words and actions. His emotional support makes me a stronger person, which does not threaten him at all, because he sees me as a team, not as competitors.
He loves his mother.
Most of all, he makes me want to be a good human, to take care of myself and to try new challenges. He makes me want to be a better person.
