I found someone who:
- Speaks 5 languages (or more, I can't keep up)
- Loves to travel and travels like a maniac
- Is London-based
- Has tons of interests and initiative: he likes to do stuff and does it (stuff does not mean drinking himself into oblivion in various places)
- Is social and capable of applying the right behaviour to a variety of social settings without external guidance
- Is straight, not a member of the clergy, funny, smart and can have intelligent informed conversationsAnd.. I'm not interested.. which can only mean I need to produce a new list:
- Must be an expat aid worker, must charm me with knowledge of exotic places and things, and must be idealistic beyond reasonable measure.
I might just be in the wrong part of the world...
I think you are in the right place. Just because a person lives in Africa or Peru doesn't mean he is actually interested in the place.But, being interested in the similar part of the world and similar things is important, I agree!
ReplyDeleteI thing there isn't a right or a wrong place; and I also think that analysis of requirements does not necessarily lead to meeting the right person. Of course there must be common interests but then like in a chemical reaction elements must blend... Nobody knows exactly what triggers the reaction between two human beings. Fulfilling the requirements is not enough and sometimes not even 100% necessary.
