I'll Date You If

If your honest, thoughtful, genuine and happy inside and out.
If you can stimulate my mind and sex is not all you want to talk about.
If your not a couch potato, enjoys being active and is full of zest.
If you don't sweat the small stuff and don't let yourself become too stressed.
If your loyal, considerate and are your true self from the start.
If you looking for a relationship and promise not to break my heart.
If you can make me laugh, be romantic and treat me with respect.
If you can share your true feelings and not emotionally disconnect.
If your priorities are in line and and you are not judgmental.
If you not jealous, or insecure and not overly temperamental.
If you don't smoke, abuse alcohol or misuse drugs.
If you like kissing, holding hands and tender hugs.
If you know the difference between making love and having sex.
If your laid back and not always worried about what will come next.
If you are a good listener and a gentleman through and through.
If you possess these qualities, then I'll be happy to go on a date with you.

I see from the comments that this was a winning poem. Congratulations! I know I really enjoyed it. Very witty. I loved Andrea Dietrich's comment. And sadly to say we men have a lot of flaws. Have you thought of getting a dog? Threw in some humor of my own.

Returning to this one, which I had really enjoyed from the first time I saw it. Glad you remembered the old bread songs. They are so lovely!

Well, I tell white lies, fall asleep when I think and am the same as a million other Joes; I may not always "talk" about sex, but I am always thinking about it; The couch does have dents that oddly fit my body and my zest is half empty; The stuff I sweat is not small and I failed the stress test; My face makes many women laugh, I missed the romance dance and I can't respect any woman who would go out with me. I am only half way done and it looks like I am out of the running already. ;-)
