Patricia Gale

110 %

Read careful gents
I am about to divulge a hidden secret
The secret list of what a lady finds appealing

A man who takes pride in the way he looks
But can not spend more time in front of the mirror than a model
Grooming is worth 30 %
His walk… must have confidence in it
No head hung low
Look us right in the eye
10 % on this one
Friendly but not to friendly, just a touch at first
A sensitive caring side
Please no over whelming machismo, it really is unbecoming
Strength, please no over emotional clingy types
15 % added for this
Chivalry the long dead art….
Open the door for her and no, automatic doors do not count
Show interest in her apparel
The pick up lines really are embarrassing
One’s like, did it hurt when you fell from heaven
Please you can not retract an awful line
Tack on 15 %
Remember her conversation, birthdays, and favorite things
Dig deep guys, find out who she is
15 % and possible more
It’s called making love, not a quickie, not a roll in the hay
Give passion and you shall receive passion
A gentle affectionate touch, holding and listen all the above is worth
25 %

110 % might seem like a lot but the old line still remains
Give and ye shall receive

P.S. Results may vary

(Please take no offence…Just a little light humor)

    You are right, Patricia, but always saves us reason, love for Jesus, truth and acceptance of pain. Old women always cry with old tears.Excellent poem....10+++++

    No offence taken......this is very serious business. And by the way....did it hurt when YOU fell from heaven? Couldn't resist! Excellent composition.

    I adore this and it's soooo true! ! ! Guys think we'll think it's attractive if they walk around trying to be cool, but we just want a nice guy! ! !

    Patricia,

    When I first read that you only had 10 ... tens,
    It seemed only right to make it eleven!

    B.V.A.

    Men won't go wrong by following this advice. Whether they hit 110% or not. Fun, but of well-written fluff, glad I stopped by.

    Peace,

    sweet & educational on the surface. however, dont miss the depth of this poem, a person expressing her ideal, wishes, needs, the motivation beneath the surface of the poem. a nudge in the ribs to all us guys!

    Patricia, according to your reckoning my wife says I would get a big ZERO. I think after thirty four years she should know. Brilliant piece of counting. Top marks from me and thanks for sharing it my friend.

    No, Patricia, I'm taking this very seriously. It all makes good sense to me: a whole bunch of reminders of where we constantly fall down - as if we're programmed for rejection. We could do with more of this kind of stuff - genuine insights into the female mind are kind of thin on the ground! So, yes, I really appreciated this well formulated recipe for success. Vol 2 eagerly awaited. xx jim
