My Ideal Woman

My ideal woman isn't a sista with curves and a weave down her back. That may be the norm for most black men. I am not most black men; therefore, my preferences in a woman may be overwhelmingly different than most black men.

My ideal woman has no children. I have had relationships with single-mothers in times past. They are not for me. I can longer be romantically involved with a woman that is dependent on food stamps, child-support, and me. Did I mention that single-moms come with a mountain of issues?

My ideal woman is educated. She doesn't have to be college-educated, but she needs to be educated. Meaning what? She has to be articulate. She has to know how to express herself with words in an intelligent manner. There isn't anything wrong with speaking proper English and my ideal woman speaks grammatical English.

In addition to not being a single-mom and an idiot, my ideal woman is athletic-not muscular, but atheletic. I exercise and I want a partner that exercises. I prefer to date a woman that doesn't mind jogging, roller blading, or cycling with me. I may want to play tennis one Sunday afternoon. She has to be able to keep up.

My ideal woman is employed. She doesn't have to work in an office. Just have a job. I don't care if she works in Burger King; a check is a check. I respect a woman that earns a check rather than a woman that sits on her ass and thinks the world should be handed to her.

I want a woman that is progressive. She understands the importance of advancing herself as an individual-financially, mentally, behaviorally, and spiritually. I have dated stagnant women in times past and they are a hinderance. Any woman that doesn't believe in change isn't for me. I'm not interested in a woman that has the mentality, "This is me and I'm not changing who I am". I'm about progressing as a person and I want my partner to share the same sentiment.

My ideal woman isn't of a particular race. She can be from Mars for all I care. As long as she has the characteristics that I seek in a partner, that is all that matters to me. I'm not looking for a woman that is emotionally disturbed. I am not looking for a woman that is boisterous, belligerent, bossy, and bitchy. I'm not interested in a woman that is insecure, overly dramatic, overly sensitive, high strung, irrational, lazy, dependent, sexually provocative or promiscuous (you don't have to wear less to be sexy).

My ideal woman is serene, spiritual (you don't have to go to church to be spiritual) amiable, amicable, virtuous, hard-working, logical, unbiased, respectable, respectful, secure, not jealous, intelligent, and of course, sexy.
