I'm not jaded, but I am definitely not naive. I have had my crushes, been crushed and done some crushing. I have liked smart guys, cute guys, chubby guys and older guys. In my younger years I always found myself attracted to the mysterious, artistic and scrawny.
I wish I could tell my teenage self one thing; it's a cover. If a man/boy/man-boy is aloof he is usually an idiot. I wanted to be the only key that could unlock their guarded hearts.I wanted to peel back the dark, brooding layers and find a jewel...it ain't there. It's usually a void, maybe with a doodle in crayon, some lint and if you're lucky a few moths. If you're unlucky it's filled with an unadulterated passion...for themselves.
I was very fortunate in my choice of mate. What you see is what you get. That is a very underestimated quality these days. I guess it's what you would call honesty.

I like that. You're right. That makes sense. But those mysterious ones are just so damn attractive? Why is that?
Yeah it is safe to add my man has not much mystery to him! Although that is what I love the most. There are not to many surprises.
I'm glad this was the case with you and one of your taller ex-boyfriends. :)
If that sounded totally rude... I'm sorry! I really wasn't meaning to be!
Ha! Morgan, that's not rude it's hilarious. Nope, he wasn't dark and brooding, but definitely tall!
