Imagination makes everything perfect

I have been thinking long and hard about this. If I could make the perfect partner, what would I want for myself? Well, of course, I'd like all the usual things: kind, funny, honest. Confident and reliable. Able to remember how I like my tea, my middle name, and when my birthday is.

And then there's the other stuff.

1. Willing to read to me in bed.
2. Happy doing things together, like cooking and playing games
3. Holds my face when we kiss. The last one did that the very first time and I think that is why I fell in love with him.
4. Interested in other people. I think it's important he's not just kind to me, because that sort of implies...well by default he has to be because I'm the girlfriend. I mean someone who's interested in other people as well. Perhaps even children and animals.
5. Interested in non-material stuff. God that'd be nice.
6. Will hold my hand in public. I get lost a lot.
7. Happy to dance in the kitchen. Or wherever really. Just...happy.
8. Comfortable to sleep against.
9. Able to see the beauty in the details.

Huh. Perhaps he actually doesn't exist. Well I can make him up in my head I suppose, and when nobody's looking I'll pretend.
