Ideal

Last evening, Marina and I were discussing what makes up our perfect partner. Marina said that her BF hits on 95% of what she had written down as her ideal fella, which is pretty damn impressive. I think if memory serves the things he doesn't hit on might be "the perfect height", US citizenship (they're working on it) or speaks English as well as Spanish (he's taking courses at University) or something that, in the long run, she is more than happy to trade off on. Oh, and her guy - he's the best of the best and I could not be happier to have a new primo in Mario.
Anyway, Marina, here's my list - it's lengthy, but thorough:
