Picky? Mayhaps...

Ok so after a few dating missteps in my past, I am fully-prepared to be picky about the next man in my life. Don't get me wrong! I would love to date and explore different personalities, but if I'm going to give you a title, you're gonna have to be pretty flippin' awesome.

So what is Jax Single Girl looking for? Well, I was having this conversation with my best friend, and I shamefully admitted that my high standards are, I believe, everyone else's average standards. I'm not setting the bar low (sorry all you middle-aged men on Match.com. I am NO mail order bride!). I'm just now understanding what it is I am willing to accept.

Must make me laugh
Must have your own life and hobbies
Must want to spend time together
Must enjoy my company whether I'm rocking a hoodie and Chucks, or all gussied up in a little black dress
Must make plans sometimes
Must have a great relationship with his family
Must be kind (snide people watching, however, is acceptable)
Must appreciate holding my hand as I hold his
Must be willing to at least appreciate my quirks and odd habits

I know. This list is general at best. But the most important thing I need is that chemistry. That boom. The butterflies in the stomach. In the past, I have been so patient with my phantom boyfriends (def. You know he exists. I know he exist. But where on God's green earth is he?!), but what I need is an adventurous companion. My other partner in crime.

Despite all outward appearances, I do believe in true, everlasting love. I really believe that one man one day will share the same zest for life. So where are you, dear? Let's share witty puns, go on a midnight drive for no reason, bake cupcakes, and yell at stupid people on tv. And perchance may we cuddle often?

...wait. You wanna put what where and nothing more?

AS IF!
