Just when I think I have him pigeonholed, he surprises me by showing tremendous depth. He refuses to stay in the box!

Then our mama was pregnant a Verrryy long time between deliveries, I think! But the longer bake time made for the better cake, VB!

Are you sure it's not an illusion?

He just might do that. Perhaps Fleur de Sel Caramel?

He's got a disarming sort of approach, that makes you never fully sure if he's putting you on or quietly sincere.

What are your dealmakers?

What are the things that make you want to come closer, get a little vulnerable with this person, stick it out with them?

Just asking you to put one down. If you have more than one, I think it'd be good if you could post them separately. That way, we can think about what you said and not just skim down your list.

While this might be structured like a game, it isn't one at all.

~~~~

For example, one of mine is:

Is kind to people that he doesn't "have" to be kind to.
Dealclosers. Black and white. When you meet in person. Do you like me, or not. Open the door and date ONLY me to see where it goes, or close the door and say "I am not into you".

So, I have to say HONESTY, bold and to the point.

For example, I like a girl to say:

"Our conversation on the phone was great, but now that I have met you in person, I know there is no chemistry at all. Sorry I wasted your time, let me pick up the check".

or

"Our conversation on the phone was great, and now that we have met in person I would like to see you again and see where this path leads us."

Attractive but doesn't act like it, modest and/or humble.

Is thoughtful and respectful of others' ideas, but clear about his likes and dislikes and is deserving of respect.
