Part of the reason I really hate online
dating is that usually people choose you due to aesthetic reasons.
This is not the way that I operate. Usually after the “Hi how are
you” and the “what do you do for a living “ comes the “what's
your type question.
I suppose this is a general segway in
girl speak to the question of, “Do you find me attractive?” I'm
never sure how to answer that question. In a society where we place
too much value on looks I find the question of “what's your type”
archaic.
Attractiveness to me really comes from
inward beauty and not from exterior beauty. So I don't have a
particular type. I don't want to pigeon hole myself into exclusively
dating someone who looks like x when my soul mate will come in the
form of y. Why would I limit myself? So here are the physical
characteristics I am looking for:
Lips that are unafraid to kiss me at
random times and that can whisper the inner workings of her soul to
me. That are capable of hours of conversation or happy just being
in the same room as mine. Most importantly who speaks the truth no
matter what it is.
A smile that always hides a bout of a
laughter behind it, that isn't afraid to laugh at themselves and at
me.
Hands that aren't afraid to take a hold
of mine. That create beautiful things, no matter what they are.
Hair that isn't concerned with blowing
freely in the wind that knows that I would love it no matter how it
falls on the head that I charish.
A belly that isn't afraid to eat or
laugh with equal desire for both.
Arms that are open to embrace.
Legs that aren't afraid to stand up
when everyone else would sit. This includes dancing at random times,
like in the kitchen.
Eyes that smile and cry freely, who can
see me for who I am.
A heart that has eyes to see true
beauty where ever it lay, in a piece of art, in a bar of music what
ever.
A body that gives it's self freely to
help others, marked by life with stretch marks, scars and freckles
that I can trace in quiet hours.
Feet that can tap to music, go for
random walks, and that would carry them to see me. That aren't
afraid to walk on their own path.
A mind with it's own opinions even if
they differ from mine. That is open, and constantly in motion.
These are all the things I am looking
for. How can I tell from a picture if they can do the things I
require. How should I answer this question?
