Perfect Numbers Like Perfect Men are Rare

Everyone is out and about searching for that special someone. That "perfect" person that seems to either complete them or change them for the better in some way.

I think my "perfect" significant other would have a:
-Body like: Ryan Reynolds did in Blade: Trinity
-Sense of humor like: Dane Cook did in Good Luck Chuck
-Class like: Antonio Banderas did in Original Sin
-Smile like: Jared Padalecki has in Supernatural
-Eyes like: Alexander Skarsgard does in TrueBlood
-Lips like: Johnathan Rhys Meyers has in The Tudors
-Height like: Ben Affleck did in Smoking Aces
-Voice like: Clive Owen did in Children of Men
-Skills and Smarts like: James Franco did in Tristan and Isolde

However, all of that seems like too high expectations to have. Especially since no one is perfect. It's impossible. Instead i would just settle for a living, breathing man. Similar to the one that's described in Katie MacAlister's A Girl's Guide to Vampires.

"He will send shivers of delight down my spine with a dark cloak of intrigue wrapped around him. He will captivate me, fascinate me, fold me into the air of mystery and adventure that surrounds him, making my blood sing with desire. He will need me, depend on me, trust me where he has trusted no other. He will light my darkest hours, and his love will shine as a beacon that will guide me through the most twisted paths..."
Or even from Sally's true love spell (Amas Veritas) in Practical Magic (1998)


"He will hear my call a mile away. He will whistle my favorite song. He can ride a pony backwards. He can flip pancakes in the air. He’ll be marvelously kind..."


It is February, the month of love...and my birth. A man with the qualities listed about would make a lovely birthday present :) I could care less about the fact that my birthday is after Valentine's day.
