A Wed Wose....How Ordinawy

tinhuvielI'm itching for romance.
I want to be in Barnes & Noble, sipping an espresso and perusing various enthralling tomes of enlightenment, when dude approaches me. He would be in his 30s but still very keen on comfort and dressing like a ragamuffin. Maybe he'd dress like a Dead Head. And he'd be large and totally non-buffed. He'd have dark hair, preferably long, or he'd be bald, a very pleasant lyrical voice, and he'd have soft hands to the touch, but they would carry more power than one would think by mere observation. Facial hair and eyeglasses would be definite plus.
He'd ask me if I'd like a cup of coffee (the potential dating version of this question, not the president of Burundi version) and we'd sit together discussing books and science fiction.
He'd have a wry sense of humour and would see the humour in every situation.
And he'd buy my coffee before he left the store. A couple of days later, I would receive flowers and a formal request that we go on a date. And our dates would be comfortable, full of laughter and philosophy, and hopelessly awash in Uber-Geekery.
He'd be an exceptional and patient lover and would want to dress me up like his own personal doll. He'd be vocal in his love of me, the kind that shouts to the world about his newfound love. He'd be the one quite intent on maintaining my safety and well-being. He wouldn't just be my lover, he'd be my best friend.
I would love to feel utterly overwhelming surrender when he wraps his large arms around me, enclosing me in his abundant body. He would send me cards, candy, flowers, what have you. He'd alway be touching me through the night, just to affirm his presence and make certain of mine.
With this dream man, I'd be unconditionally safe, loved, and brought high before onlookers. He'd make music for me and nurture me without smothering. He'd be the kind of man who places his arm around me in stores. And he'd shower me with gifts, just because. He would want a handfasting outdoors before the witness of the trees.
He'd have a Celtic soul and Sci-Fi spirit.
I have never been romanced. I've never been approached by a man. What little experience I have in relationships leaves me very unsure as to whether or not I'll ever manifest such a beautiful, romantic male as described above. Despite the fact that I've lost hope of this happening, I still sometimes long for it. I'm not sure if I'm melancholy about all the time I've lost or if I'm subconsciously babying a seed of hope that, someday, my prince will come.

Date: 2005-10-20 12:23 pm (UTC)Well, you have been approached in Barnes and Noble, but just not by guys.
And you have been approached by guys before. What about big Wolfman? or Demon Boy? Or Tim "Kevin Bacon on Crack" from afar?

Re: So wait.....
Date: 2005-10-20 07:25 pm (UTC)If you look at it that way
Date: 2005-10-20 07:47 pm (UTC)1)...And he'd buy my coffee before he left the store. A couple of days later, I would receive flowers and a formal request that we go on a date. And our dates would be comfortable, full of laughter and philosophy, and hopelessly awash in Uber-Geekery.
--This also is a possibility. But shows romance.
2).... He wouldn't just be my lover, he'd be my best friend.
--we all want this.
3).... He'd alway be touching me through the night, just to affirm his presence and make certain of mine.
--I know, sounds alittle weird, but remember he is a geek.
4)...With this dream man, I'd be unconditionally safe, loved, and brought high before onlookers. He'd make music for me and nurture me without smothering. He'd be the kind of man who places his arm around me in stores. And he'd shower me with gifts, just because. He would want a handfasting outdoors before the witness of the trees.
--This is the gist of it, right here. This is the true foreplay for women. Any man will do this until the sex or a couple months later. The trick is to have a man that does this AFTER the relationship or marriage ages. Women fall for this all the time, then are suprised when it goes away. Tell us you can keep this going, and you will have a great sex partner, and a loving companionship out of 75% of the female population
-- notice the running theme in these passages is gifts. Tinhuviel wants gifts, so all you men out there that laugh at her jokes, need to buy her something (how's that, Tin?).
Please tell me I'm wrong, that men still do things that keep a relationship going strong. I know I am not wrong about the gifts. Buy Tin alot of gifts!

Date: 2005-10-20 07:51 pm (UTC)I don't think my response turned out as well
Date: 2005-10-21 06:02 pm (UTC)But is does puzzle me, why we can't seem to find the person we are looking for, and they are in fact all around us, like lowland rider says. He is right, and we are right. what is wrong with this picture?
Re: I don't think my response turned out as well
Date: 2005-10-21 09:00 pm (UTC)You got me. I do have a very sweet geek in my life, but he's not very romantic.
I forgot one thing
