the perfect man...

so, ive know rashid for...geez, i dunno...2 years? maybe?? seems like ive known him forever :-) point is...in that time it amazes me how the men in his life cant seem to get it right!! its not hard to love someone like rashid, i mean...look at him!! lol but seriously, he's a great guy and u couldnt possibly know him and not love him on some level...so ive come up with a list of qualities that i think the ideal man for rashid should have:

1. great sense of humor - u must be able to make rashid laugh, not that its a daunting task, but u cant be dull...cause thats just boring
2. great personality (see above)
3. attractive - shallow? no, not really. u aint gotta be a supermodel, but there has to be somethin about u that catches one's attention. it could be charisma or charm for all i care, but be attractive in some fashion.
4. sensitive - no, u aint gotta cry at the drop of a dime, but u need to be in tune with ur emotions and be able to express/explain them as needed. aint nobody around here a mind reader
5. sensitive - to rashid's needs. cause the man is busy...i dont know if u know this...but HE WRITES BOOKS BITCH! and so he might have days when hes stressed, so...u have to be able to empathize and make sure he's ok, cause he would definitely do the same for you
6. sensitive and understanding - to creative folk. sometimes that passion for the craft can turn us into a passionately pissed off or moody individual. we all have our bad days. understand that, accept that, and be able to help without offending or making matters worse.
7. affectionate - show love. sometimes sayin isnt enough. grand gestures are nice, but i think rashid would appreciate the lil stuff too.
8. communication - u have to be up on ur communication game. im sure uve noticed that rashid is more than capable of expressing his thoughts and feelings in a very honest manner. his perfect man must be able to do the same. if u cant handle that....go read a book...take a couple laps round the non-fiction section in the library...and maybe u can try again later.
9. strong - not physically, well i mean not jsut physically. but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. i think rashid's perfect man should be able to care for him when he's weak, and in that same tone, be strong enough to let rashid take care of him when he's weak.
10. intelligent - it really goes in tune with communication...u dont have to be an ivy league scholar to have intelligence, and with that intelligence comes the ability to carry on a good convo and stimulate rashid's mind. very important.
11. romantic - this also goes with being affectionate. rashid's man would need to be able to come off the cuff with some romantic stuff...just cause. everyone deserves to be loved like that.
12. patient - there was really only one perfect man, and he died on calvary...so the "perfect" man for rashid would need to be patient and realize that we all might make mistakes and be willing to work through things

but when u get right to it, i think that this is the most important quality for rashid's ideal man to have:
13. a friend - i think the best relationships occur when u have a strong friendship. so for rashid, i think his man would have to be able to be his friend. a shoulder to lean/cry on, an ear to listen, a comfort, a relief from the stress, someone u can rely on, someone who understands. thats really where it all begins

did i mention that he had to be sensitive? lol

I think those are the same qualities we're all looking for in a man.

Now, where to find him?
