In my post It’s rating men, I promised a description of all those “mankind”…
Rating 9 on Little Audrey’s “scale”: the Good on Paper!
A man whom your mother would love. A man so perfect that he leaves you wondering what can be wrong and why your heart does not beat faster as you check all the items down your list.
Where to find him: Where YOU like to hang-out… The Good on Paper shares your interests or your affinities for places; that’s what creates the comfort. “Someone I can spend time with and not feel like I’m forcing him (or myself) into an universe he (or I) doesn’t belong to…” Checked. Heart-rate: flat.
How to spot him: He’ll catch your eyes because you’ll find him attractive. He’s a good looking or very charismatic guy, that fits the profile that you have of Prince Charming, whatever your standards are. “Someone who gives me an ego boost as we stroll down the streets hand-in-hand” Checked. Heart-rate: flat.
How to seduce him: No efforts necessary, you’re just yourself and he’s loving every minute of it. You both laugh at each other’s jokes; you make him feel good, he makes you feel pretty; you can talk for hours about life & death and discover that you’re standing on similar grounds. “Someone that I don’t need to pretend for” Checked. Heart-rate: flat.
What’s the catch: Whatever you mentally try to convince yourself of, whatever poll you put your friends through, whatever your mother/grandmother/sister/best friend/boss is telling you on what a great couple you make, whatever exciting/exotic/erotic things you do together… the heart-rate is still flat and the answer to questions on your feeling is “I don’t know”.
Something a Good on Paper would say: “Will you marry me?”
