I want a Guy



I Want a Guy

I want a guy
Who will work with me
Not against me
I want a guy
Who will help me
Not hinder me
I want a guy who will stand by me
And not try to make me fall
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who wants to take care of me
And not one who only wants
To be taken cared of
I want a guy
Who will wait until marriage
For my body and soul
Not one who will rush me
Before the wedding vows
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who is in love with me
And not one who just loves me
I want a guy who will share everything with me
and not one who will keep secrets
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who will not drink or lose control
Of his words, his actions or anything else
Who will not use drugs
Who will not smoke
Who will not lie to me
Who will be romantic
Who will surprise me
Once in awhile
Who will be adventurous and
Take risks with me
Who will try to control his temper
Who will try not to go to bed angry
With me
Who will promise to work things out
Before throwing in the towel
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who will compromise
Who will never cheat
Who will devote
Everything to me
Who will always be there
Who is willing to sacrifice
His life for mine
Who is willing to stand by me for all time
Who is willing to want what I want
Even if he doesn’t want it
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who will save me from myself
Who will treat me like a queen
Who will never hurt me spiritually
Emotionally, mentally or physically
Who will never disrespect me
Who will try to understand me
Who will respect my feelings
Who will marry me and
Never divorce me
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who is willing to support me
In everything that I do
Who is not selfish
Who is willing to adopt
Who will travel anywhere
Just to be with me
Who will accept me for who I am
Who wont judge me
Who wont regret any decision made regarding me
Who will accept any consequence
For being with me
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who will know when to comfort me
And when to let me be alone
Who will give up all childish ways
Like hanging out with friends
ALL the time
Who is willing to see that
I will be his wife, his life, his family
Forever
Who will listen
even when I cannot speak
Who will know me,
All of me
Who will look into my eyes
And fall in love with me
Again everyday
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who is experienced with life
Who has traveled the world
Lived on different continents
Who can speak to me in several
Languages
Who is willing to travel the world with me
Who will take me to exciting places
For many years to come
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who is willing to take care of
His parents
Who will understand my commitment
To my job
Who will forgive me for missing
A dinner
A party
An event
Because I have to work
Who wont leave me because of it
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who will wait to have children with me
Until after we are married & established
Who wont have baby mama drama
Before me
I will be his only wife, his only friend, the
Only mother of his children
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who will share my love
For old Disney movies
For spaghetti
For decorating
For taking pictures
For making crafts
I want a guy

I want a guy
Whose idea of a good time
Is sitting with me on the couch and
Watching movies for hours and hours
Who will go out to dinner
And dancing
Once in awhile
Who will never lose his desire
To please me
To want me
To respect me
To love me

I want a guy
Who will teach our children
Everything he knows
Who will read stories to them
And tuck them into bed
When I am not able to
Who will teach them the
Values of life
Who will be there when they
Are born, when they lose their first tooth,
Their first dance,
Their graduation
Who will love them above himself
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who is
Well educated
Who has been to college and
Has gotten the highest degree possible
Who is smart
Intelligent
But not arrogant
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who is a team player
Who is committed to living a good life,
Committed to work,
To his family
To me
To our future
Our children
Our security
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who comes from a big warm family
Who knows what it is like
Not to get everything he wants
Who respects his mother
And looks up to his father
Who shows up for every
Family  celebration
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who respects my beliefs
Who will not pressure me
To go against them
Who will have his own beliefs
And not just live without
Morals, beliefs or goals
I want a guy

I want a guy
who comes from a great background
who knows how to share with others
who appreciates the little things in life
Who is close with his family
And visits them for all occasions
Who loves his parents
I want a guy

I want a guy
Who can cook
Wash
And carry out all domestic duties
A guy who can take care of himself
When I am not around
Who will take care of the house,
Kids and me
If we get sick
Who is independent
And self-reliant
I want a guy

But above all
I want
A friend
A companion
Someone who I can trust
With
Every Thought
Every memory
Every aspect of my life

Do you exist?
Is there a guy like this?
Do I want too much?
Or do I just want enough?
I hope to find you
I want a guy like you
I want a guy like you
I really do
I really want a guy
LIKE YOU
