An interview with Christine

Think about men that have wanted you. Write 2 or 3 paragraphs about what one of them did to get relegated to the "friend zone."

When I was 18, I dated a guy who went out of his way to be “Prince Charming”. Though he had already graduated, he’d still show up every morning to take me to school, would be there waiting to take me to lunch, and would be there to take me home after school. My parents thought he was one of the most wonderful young men they’d ever met. He’d compliment my mother on her cooking, decorating skills, and even the color of blouse she was wearing. He and my father would sit and talk about fishing, sports, and whatever the issues were of the day. If my dad was having car troubles, this guy would be right there, tools in hand.

He lavished me with gifts and compliments almost continually. He always made sure we did whatever I wanted and we’d hang out with whoever I wanted to see. I was a party girl and wasn’t interested in settling down. We’d never talked about our “future”, as it wasn’t something I wanted to think about. All I wanted to do was revel in the knowledge that this guy was totally in love with me. That was until the night his compliments became a little creepy.

He had always told me how beautiful he thought I was, but the night he decided to tell me that even my ears made him crazy and that we were going to make beautiful babies together, I knew that this relationship had to end. I didn’t want to hurt his feelings because he was a very sweet guy, but I wasn’t ready for children and the idea that my ears turned him on was a little too weird.

Can a guy who does not have chiseled abs be considered sexy by women? How?

Absolutely. Sex appeal doesn’t necessarily have to come from physical conditioning. I love a man with sexy eyes and a winning smile. Sex appeal can also come in the form of mannerisms. A gentleman who offers a lady his seat on the bus or just picks up something she’s dropped can also be very attractive. A witty sense of humor can be very appealing. A man who can find humor in the mundane is a rare find.
