I like that I am independent, and sometimes excessively so. I also want some guy to come along and do everything for me, or at least try. How complicated is that?! :) I suppose I want a man who loves me for my independence, but refuses to let me be so; a man who won't let me do everything, even though I could; a man who knows full well that when I say I am okay, what I really want is for him to give me a big hug and protect me from whatever it is that is actually making me not okay. Is that too much to ask? :)
I want to be equally responsible for a relationship, even though it would be soooo much easier to just let the man plan all our dates. ;) I like that when I missed my returned phone call from the cook, he said to call him back because we should pick I night to get together. I was not prepared to come up with an idea for said night off the top of my head. He said, "It's not so easy is it?" Hahaha. Five minutes after hanging up, I came up with something. So there. It's been a while since I have been in the city and I keep meaning to get a friend to go to Japanese hot pot with me. Hopefully Mr. Chef likes Asian food (because I certainly do!), but just in case, now I will have to think of a plan B so it will look like I can come up with these ideas a little faster.

Dude, I'll go to hot pot with you if the chef isn't down.
Why can't you have it all? Ok, so maybe your dream man can't deliver it all at once, but I'd like to think he (whoever he might be) would be able to learn. It sounds like all you're really asking for is give and take... a happy medium?
Ah, the dream of a man who can read your mind. I'm afraid that is something I used to dream about that too, but have come to realize that it isn't realistic. It also isn't fair to the guy to expect him to read your moods without your being willing to share with him how you really feel. Just my 2 cents learned with the help of a professional.
Is Japanese hot pot like fondue but without the cheese? I went to a fondue place once that had a pot of broth to cook meat and vegetables in on little skewers as the main course. Similar?
KHC, I will keep that in mind. We could still go regardless! Japanese hot pot is indeed like fondue but with broth and so ends up being a little healthier than fondue. Usually you can find a restaurant in American cities' Chinatowns.
Molly and Danielle, I think any man who is a little more down to earth and/or self aware than the ex would work, really. I have begun to realize the obvious differences between men and women in relationships with friends and family embarking in to married life. Guys #4 & 5, the cook and "right on" guy respectively, seem more responsible and less spacey. All good things in my book these days.
