-he doesn't know the difference between Gaudì and Dalì though he may know who Picasso is.

He sounds like the perfect Italian. What more could you need?
ReplyDeleteBut i did notice you left out his prowess between the sheets?
What a great list,he sounds dreamy, and you seem to know him, but I was also surprised to see the more sensual attributes left out.
ReplyDeleteI can see how Rob fits into the picture. With access to the two of them, I'd say any woman's needs would be met ;-)
ReplyDeleteI've talked many a time about bf in the bedroom. So I felt it was overkill but:
ReplyDelete-He makes me cum just about every time.
-He is good once things get started.
-He sucks at starting.
-He knows exactly what I want and when.
-I feel like he can read my mind during sex.
-He loves anal
-He doesn't talk much, but he does, on occasion say the odd thing.
-There are one or two positive sexual episodes I will never forget with him.
-there are three negative sexually related episodes I will never forget with him.
it's fascinating, i wonder what my wife's list would be....
ReplyDeleteEven with all the positives, you've left off some negatives that are impacting your relationship, of course, it's your list include or exclude anything you want, but if a few key things are missing.
I go back to what I've said before, "Brad Pitt cheated on Jennifer Aniston" There is no one so perfect (such as Ms. Aniston) that makes them trouble-proof.
you will find your own path, your own match, and you will be happy.
He sounds pretty multi-dimensional (except maybe for maybe some of the art and music stuff) and we kind of had an idea about the sex stuff, although your additional list in the comment helped fill in some more.
ReplyDeleteHis eating and drinking habits reminded me a lot of how the first generation Italian families were to visit when I was growing up - always getting offers of food and drink no matter when I stopped by, and it was all really good!
I enjoyed reading your list about your boyfriend. Like Advizor said, I wonder how the men in my life would 'list' me. I am surprised he hasn't tried hard to learn English for you - I mean really, I'm trying to learn Italian for you :)
ReplyDeleteAdvizor: Yeah I left out the obvious stuff I guess. I complain about that relatively regularly on the blog. This was just an information gap filler of sorts.
ReplyDeleteMarcus: Yeah he is fairly multi-dimensional I guess. He's a good guy, and yes the food is fantastic.
Rachel: I KNOW!! I can't believe you're learning Italian. Are you going to come visit me when I get my place?? But seriously, this is one of my pet peeves. I don't understand it. I really tried to get him to learn at the beginning, then I just stopped trying. He ignored all my attempts.
