I Spent the Day with Romeo

Yesterday I had a guest for the day.  His name was Romeo.

Yes. Romeo. 

Since it’s February, well darn, anytime of the year, it brings to mind romance.  

Now this Romeo was not just any Romeo.  He was a Romeo in MY house. 

So what are the qualities you would want in your “Romeo?”

My romantic Romeo has to have a number of qualities that will make me want to invite him into my life. 

Here are but a few “musts” for me:

Must be caring and genuine

Must be honest

Must know how to show his love in creative ways

Must be a good conversationalist

Must be looking for someone to enhance his life and appreciate my doing the same

Must know how to serve others – not me, mind you, but others in the community

Must be attractive to me…now don’t go crazy here, men.  I see attractiveness in most men I meet who have the other qualities…in other words…if a man has the other qualities, then there is a good chance the man is attractive to me.

Must be responsible in personal and professional life

Must be willing to be the only “Romeo” in my life

Must know how to give as well as receive

Must be willing to commit to a relationship

Notice I did not say must be filthy rich; must be drop dead gorgeous; must be tall, dark and handsome; must have at least two cars (although I do have a thing about men with trucks); must have a home on the east coast AND west coast, etc.

So for all you wanna be Romeos out there – it’s really not as hard as you think….unless you are a no good, lazy bum!

By the way, “Romeo” was the man who put my new linoleum down in the kitchen yesterday.  He did a fantastic job, has children and grandchildren he was so proud of that he shared pictures of them with me, and was a genuinely great guy.  It was a pleasure doing business with him.  

My wish for you today is that you find that “Romeo” in your life that will enhance it and make it worth living even more.  There are both men and women looking out there and they shouldn’t settle for anything less.  Happy searching.
