What’s Your Type?
1. Blank 1 Вопрос 1The complete opposite
I'm really attracted to Scandinavian girls - tall, blonde, sporty, out-going, the complete opposite of me! I used to like older girls, but I've had a few bad experiences, so now I'm looking for something different. My ideal partner now would be five or six years younger than me. I also want somebody who is independent, who doesn't always need to be near me, and I think that the girls I've met from Sweden or Norway or Denmark tend to be very strong-willed. The only thing I'm worried about is that perhaps they would find me a bit quiet and shy. I'm not very confident about myself, so that could be a problem.
2. Blank 2 Вопрос 1Lots of traits
I don't really have a type. The most important thing for me is that my partner is nice and sensitive and caring. I'd never go out with someone who was selfish or big-headed. It doesn't really matter to me whether somebody is good-looking or not, so long as they're not too ugly! I'd never go out with a man who didn't look after himself, though. It's important that he's healthy, that he watches what he eats and that he's fairly fit!
3. Blank 3 Вопрос 1Fashion first!
I want someone who likes clothes. I work in the fashion industry in Milan, so the way someone dresses is really important to me. I'd never go out with someone who didn't care about the way they looked. I used to like really good-looking men, but I've changed my mind about that, because they tend to be so big-headed! I also really love music, so I'd never go out with someone who didn't like music. If I'm honest, I'm also attracted to younger men, so I'm looking for someone who's maybe in their early twenties.
4. Blank 4 Вопрос 1Lucky guy
I'm a married man, so I'm the wrong person to ask a question like this to, really. When I was single, I used to think I wanted somebody who was easy to talk to, somebody who understood me and how I was feeling, somebody who was serious and religious, like I am - and then I met my wife, and she was everything I was looking for, and more! I can't believe how lucky I've been, but then I have to say that, or she'll kill me!
5. Blank 5 Вопрос 1Still fussy?
To be honest, I'm too old now to be fussy, really. I want anybody who will have me! I used to worry about the kind of person that was right for me and I used to think I wanted somebody who was slim and sexy and intelligent and who had her own money and her own job and things like that, but now I've reached my forties and I'm still single, I've lowered my standards! It's taken me a long time, but I've realised that I'm not the best-looking man in the world, or the richest, and so I'd be happy just meeting someone who liked me! Sad, isn't it!
6. Blank 6 Вопрос 1FreakFreak
I know this sounds strange, but all I really want is someone with nice hands! I used to go out with this man who played the piano, and he had really beautiful hands - long, slim fingers, but really strong as well. Mm! I'd never go out with somebody who had short, fat, little fingers. I just couldn’t.
