My "requirements"

Hmm, so which half of these would you be willing to give up on?

Single - Yes
Wealthy - No, and I never want to be. I'd just like to be comfortable, tyvm. Give me enough to live in Celebration, eat steak, and go to WDW, and I'd be happy.
over 40 - No (until next week)
no kids at home - Yes (no kids at all)
loves dogs - (ignore my avatar)
cooks - I know how to follow a recipe, and I can tell the difference between a saucepan, whisk, and spatula. But I don't enjoy cooking.
cleans - I don't do bathrooms. Laundry, fine. Vacuuming, fine. Dusting, windows, no big deal, though not every week. But I hate cleaning bathrooms!
capable of changing the channel on the tv - This is one of my strongest skills.
does NOT change the channel every 33 seconds -->always changes the channel or leaves the room to avoid commercials...loves his DVR and often records things just to watch them on delay and skip the commercials.
does not engage in contests that involve bodily function sounds - I hate those! I don't even like "fart jokes", or "bathroom humor" in general.
does not spend more time in front of the mirror than me - Honestly, I'm not too happy with what I see anyway, so why would I?
knows to look in the mirror (check hair, remove t/p from shaving nicks) - Of course. I'm too self-conscious not to.
has a sense of humor, or at least appreciates and recognizes mine - I have no idea what you're talking about.


Ok, I figure this started as silliness, but you know what? I had fun posting answers. So there!

Hmm, so which half of these would you be willing to give up on?

Single - NO WAY is this requirement being given up--the guy has to be single, widowed or fully divorced.

Wealthy - Yes--can give this up. I make a decent salary, as long as he's employed and happy, I'm ok with whatever his income is. I fully support my own lifestyle. But HE has to be man enough not to let it bother him if I make more money than he does.

over 40 - I could give this up--but then I'd be a cougar. (Insert roaring sound here)

no kids at home - depends on their age. Depends on how much I end up liking the guy. Love him-love his kids.

loves dogs - Yes--could give this up. I can get used to dogs but have none of my own.

cooks - Yes- could give this up. Would be fine if he cooks and I clean or vice versa. Or heck--we can eat out--A LOT.

cleans - Yes--can give this up. We can hire people to do that.

capable of changing the channel on the tv - Yes, can give this one up. Plus--if I'm changing the channel I control the tv.

does NOT change the channel every 33 seconds -- Yes-can give this up--I'm a channel chaser too. So this wouldn't bother me. And isn't that why you have more than one tv in the house?

does not engage in contests that involve bodily function sounds - No--not giving this up.

does not spend more time in front of the mirror than me - umm--I would say No--not giving this up.

knows to look in the mirror (check hair, remove t/p from shaving nicks) - NO-I am not giving this up.

has a sense of humor, or at least appreciates and recognizes mine - NO I am not giving this up. You have to laugh--you'll live longer, feel better and I have a warped/wicked sense of humor. You need to either let me do my thing and not say anything or join in.



DISCLAIMER: If anyone from my "list" come knocking this is all out the window

You know "the list" you have that even if in a serious relationship your SO would have to give you a 'free pass" on hooking up with this person. (For women the names usually begin with Brad, George, etc.)

 

[Belle1962]

Yes but there has been plenty of Sawyer without his...the season premiere where he kept trying to find a shirt was great. I kept thinking "you're fine...you don't need a shirt". I wonder if the action figure is shirt optional?

You can have Sawyer (although I admit the view is nice ) I'm holding out for a hero. Which Sayeed is.

hehe...good answers...I barely remember my list, except that I had Alyssa Milano on it. She's the same age as my ex-wife (2-3 years younger than me), and I had a crush on her as soon as she started to mature on "Who's the Boss".

Oh, and my name is Brad wink wink...nudge nudge

 

[nurse.darcy]

Remember not everyone wants a madeup family

Mike, go home, you are TOO YOUNG for this thread. . .

 

[nurse.darcy]

Single - ok on that one

wealthy - I'm comfortable

over 40 - ok on that one too

no kids at home - nope, son lives with me and daughter spends summers and school holidays with me

loves dogs - prefer cats

cooks - this I can do

cleans - ditto

capable of changing the channel on the tv
does NOT change the channel every 33 seconds - I have no use for tv, never watch it. Maybe a dvd once in a while.

does not engage in contests that involve bodily function sounds - the competitions I do involve a lot of sweating, but you usually can't hear it

does not spend more time in front of the mirror than me - probably

knows to look in the mirror (check hair, remove t/p from shaving nicks) - my hair is short enough that I do not bother combing it, shower and towel dry is good enough. And I have no need to shave

has a sense of humor, or at least appreciates and recognizes mine - does warped count?

OMG, Augie, I almost peed myself laughing at this one. . .thanks for being open and sharing. . .lol

 

[nurse.darcy]

Single - I can provide a great exception to this rule. . .but not the norm. . .

Wealthy - I could care less. I am a nurse and make a 6 figure income. . .if my man is loving and WONDERFUL, he can be a house husband. . .as long as he cleans

over 40 - I think this is probably important to me. I have had too many under 40 hit on me in the last few years and it feels creepy. . .

no kids at home - This is NOT an exception. My son does not live at home and neither should yours.

loves dogs - Yes but prefers cats cause I have an all black cat who thinks she is a dog and cannot be forgotten at all. . .

cooks - I could care less. I cook, that is enough

cleans - If he is a house husband he needs to clean. If he works, then we hire someone.

capable of changing the channel on the tv - could care less

does NOT change the channel every 33 seconds -- could care less unless watching American Idol

does not engage in contests that involve bodily function sounds - Could care less if he has no visible nose hair

does not spend more time in front of the mirror than me - Don't care

knows to look in the mirror (check hair, remove t/p from shaving nicks) - Very Important. . .NO NOSE HAIR STICKING OUT FROM THE NOSE.

has a sense of humor, or at least appreciates and recognizes mine - NOT giving this up. . .make me laugh or laugh at me but if not? Leave.

 

[Floydian]

loves dogs - Yes but prefers cats cause I have an all black cat who thinks she is a dog and cannot be forgotten at all. . .

Well, my house currently has 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 birds, and 2 large fish tanks (one fresh water, one salt water). Overall, I don't prefer dogs or cats. But at different times, I do prefer one or the other. No 70lb dog on the lap when watching a movie, but a cat is fine. But the cats don't do well on a leash going for a walk, don't play tug-o-war, and don't know to always lick my face when I'm feeling down.

has a sense of humor, or at least appreciates and recognizes mine - NOT giving this up. . .make me laugh or laugh at me but if not? Leave.

From reading some of your posts, I'm thinking it'd be easy to laugh at you.

 

[Stacybaeasm]

I haven't been on this part of the Disboards in a long time and today I drop in and find this fun thread. I want to play too!

Single - Yep. Can't give on this one. I am a big believer in "completely finish one relationship before starting the next."

Wealthy - Umm, I wish I was wealthy. Since that won't happen in this lifetime, I don't care as long as the man is working and happy.

over 40 - This is the part that dragged me in. I realized today that I will be 38 in 2 months. When did that happen? Age isn't that important to me except I can't go a lot younger. It makes me feel older.

no kids at home - Hmmm. Don't know how I feel about this one. I don't have kids and don't ever plan on having my own. That being said, I wouldn't stop seeing someone because he had kids.

loves dogs - Don't care much on this one. I love dogs and appreciate cats but I have no pets right now. I just realized, I don't even have a plant. maybe I should revisit the kid question. I'm beginning to think that the universe is tellling me I shouldn't be responsible for anything living.

cooks - I cook. It would be great if he did too so we could share but...dining out is great too.

cleans - YES! I don't. I am a bad, bad housekeeper. Although, I did see someone say they wouldn't do bathrooms. That is the one room I am a fanatic about. I can't stand a dirty bathroom so I keep it really clean.

capable of changing the channel on the tv - Don't care.

does NOT change the channel every 33 seconds -- Ok, this one I do care about. Find a show and watch it. That's all I'm saying.

does not engage in contests that involve bodily function sounds - Umm...no comment?

does not spend more time in front of the mirror than me - Don't care. I am a stage manager for theatre and am around actors who do a LOT of looking in the mirror. I guess I'm numb to it.

knows to look in the mirror (check hair, remove t/p from shaving nicks) - Except one day a week. That's pj day and you don't even have to comb your hair if you don't want (although you DO have to brush your teeth.)

has a sense of humor, or at least appreciates and recognizes mine - Yep. Gotta have it. Life is too much without one.

I'd also like to add (in case the universe is listening and planning to send me this man for Valentine's Day): love of Disney (may go without saying on this board but still) and the ability to put up with my schedule. Live theatre makes for weird working times.

 

[Disneyfan63]

Hi,

I'm single. Never been married.

I'm not wealthy but I am comfortable.

I'm 45 years old.

I don't cook except on my George Foreman Grill.

I have no children.

I am messy, not a neat freak. I have people come every other week to clean.

I don't look in a mirror for long, afraid it may shatter.

I prefer cats, dogs are OK.

I watch very little TV.

I have a very dry, corny sense of humor.

I love Disney,

Jim

By mature--you do mean when she stopped acting silly and had better lines--right?

My son does not live at home and neither should yours.

That had me ROTFL. My son just bought a house almost two years ago (he is now 26). My ex thought it terrible that "I" let him live at home with us after he turned 18. (My ex was on his own at 17-so he joined the Army). Like we needed 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths just for the two of us? I have a large house for a reason. To fill with kids and grandkids and visiting family and friends.

Love this post!
Changed one:
--does not spend more time in front of the mirror than me---unless it's to clean the mirror!
And how about:
--All his own teeth!
--No comb over! (think that's already said!)
--Intelligent enough not to ever question mine!
--Smart enough to put the toilet seat down EVERY time without ever having to be reminded!
--And, maybe it should go without saying, but the Mouse will be invited on all vacations that do not involve overseas travel!
