Ain't There Anyone Here For Love?

One does not get to be my age and still single unless one has a few issues.  Tonight my sister accused me of being too picky.  Perhaps.  So here is the list we came up with of what I need in a man.

Requirements 

• heterosexual
• employed (or at least employable)
• single
• worthy priesthood holder 
• this covers a lot of ground such as: does not smoke/drink, attends church, follows commandments, desire to serve others, pays tithing, etc.
• educated, and not in the least intimidated by being with a woman who has a graduate degree in some crazy topic such as math
• socially aware, by this I mean aware of being polite in social settings, there are some things that are just not appropriate in social settings and I would find embarrassing to be with someone who does such things
• good personal hygiene, I have serious cleanliness issues
• makes me laugh, this is really not that hard to do
• kind, my sister clarified this by saying he needs to be kind to his own mother
• a gentleman
• has a good work ethic 
• cares about me

Preferable (but not required)

• at least 25 years old, but my sister said I really should move this up to 28 and she's probably right
• can grow a decent beard
• is a gentleman, but like the old fashioned chivalric gentleman you really only read about in books
• tall enough for me to wear my 4 inch heals and still be shorter than him
• has a desire to travel
• cannot be named Mike or Michael

There you have it folks.  Clearly I am too picky.  But quite honestly I'm perfectly fine with it.

I can't help but be reminded of a song from one of my favorite moves, Gentleman Prefer Blondes. Jane Russell will sing it for you.
