My perfect mate

Am I a case of U2’s anthem “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for”? Hopefully not, and so would like to have marriage neat, on the rocks! And what should my potential mate have?

Outlook

• First and foremost have an open and a keen outlook
• Cosmopolitan by nature with little hang-ups
• Honest
• Generous, understanding and compassionate towards most; shrewd with others
• Patient and optimistic

Self

• Fun-loving, energetic and ready to dapple in new things while not getting bored sharing the normal household chores
• Intelligent and have a mind of your own
• Adventurous
• As much sensitive to oneself (in terms of career, feelings, earning and spending, etc) as to the partner and the family
• Have a strong commitment (as opposed to possession) to stand by the good times and more importantly by the bad ones

Style

• Be a connoisseur of experiences (food, travel, entertainment and much more)
• Well-mannered with sharp business acumen
• Play with words, a good conversationalist, read fine books
• Sartorially elegant

Beauty

• Health conscious
• Lean, trim and fit
• As someone rightly said... we both deserve the best

Sensuality

• Comfortable with it and open to triple-entendres
• Should be active and enjoy life

Humor

• Mustn’t mind being eaten alive
• Should be able to kick some butt as well

Money

• Not really a big deal... but hey extra dough never killed anybody

Now I may never find all of these simultaneously, but is there anyone out there on the same wavelength?

The following is a copy of the ad I’ve been working on for release sometime –

Do you cherish your independence yet long to break that solitude ? Are you consumed by your work and hobbies yet make time for daily chores ? Do you dig the outdoors and dancing as well as intellectual pursuits (scrabble, chess, books,…) ? More bohemian than bourgeois ? If so, email yourself to xxxxx@xxxxxx . Reply assured but serious correspondence only. No petty bars.

Am a never-married, self-made gentleman working with a Fortune 100 telecom MNC in India. Good income. Well-traveled. Educated in top schools (BE, MBA). Oct 72, 172 cms, 61 kgs. Smart, lean and fit. Clean lifestyle. Wild sense of humor.
