The one thing I like most about you...
OKay. This is to be a revelatory article.
I lived in Coventry for eleven years. I started dating in eighth grade, with Julie, then Liz, then Mallory, the Sarah, and finally Nat, before I moved away in eleventh grade. Five girls in as many years, and each was completely different, both physically and personality-wise, from all the others. For five years, my good friends would ask me what it was that attracted me to such a menagerie of females, why my tastes were so eclectic. And I never really knew...
...until now. I finally, as many of you know, decided to ask out my friend from work, and she declined, not on the basis of like or dislike, but on the basis of "my parents said no dating"...
Which, interestingly enough, caused me, in that very moment, to suddenly lose all of my romantic interest in her. I still think she's a great person, I still think we'd make a great couple... but suddenly I'm not interested anymore. And again, I had no idea why.
Which got me thinking. What is the one thing, the one single charactaristic, that all of my past partners have shared, that this one lacks?
They are willing to think for themselves. They are willing to try, to hope that maybe it can work, to go against one person if they think another is worth the effort. I would like to say that I am much the same way. I am attracted to girls with the ability, the potential for, rebellion. Free-thinking, one-of-a-kind, open minded girls.
So, Ricky, that's it. That's my fatal weakness. I really do like the crazy ones!
And it's nice to know that about myself.
Peace and Love, take chances, make mistakes,
Greg
