It just dawned on me that one man probably won't be enough. I really don't feel like investing in the time it will undoubtedly take to find this "perfect" man so what I rather do is just go ahead and keep two tried and true types around. Here are the profiles:
The Regular Guy
Regular guy with the regular job who does regular things. Nothing too fancy goes on with this dude except for the occasional "I think I'm Diddy" actions in the club. This guy is on the brink of being great but there is always some disconnect or a series of unfortunate events that keep him right at the "average regular guy" level. He does however, drop philosophical jewels from time to time that will have you completely open and I mean like all the way open. I can chill with this guy with a scarf on my head, sip lemonade and spit David Sunflower Seeds (I ONLY spit David) in true Teneice fashion without materialistic judgment. He's not quite there professionally which is 90% why this relationship wouldn't work. I never want to make more money, be more ambitious or have more success than a man. I want to be submissive to some degree and if I'm bringing home the bacon and frying it up (figuratively cause I don't cook) than this is a problem waiting to happen. I'm sure I'll get some flack for this but sorry kids-it just doesn't work out too well. But as you've probably assumed the sex is bomb so he's a keeper.
The Slightly Above Regular Guy
This guy has the pedigree of a rich Connecticut kid and has checked all the boxes. College, fraternity, inflated stories about his fraternity, carries around his business cards in a brown Italian leather case, hopes that you ask him about his designer suiting before he has to mention it, drives some sexy European automobile and has a ton of other "I've made it" symbols he casually yet intentionally likes to flash around. This guy keeps me entertained Monday-Friday during regular business hours and I'm usually ok with his company. We talk about CNN, Donald Trump, investment plans, fashion and things he throws in to appear slightly cooler than he is. All around, he's a good look and the ideal husband but after about 90 min I'm trying to text the regular guy. His holier than thou attitude just gets a little overwhelming when all I want to do is chill and watch Love Jones or Sex and the City. The sex is cool, nothing noteworthy although he is running around talking about how dope he is. He's a keeper because of his credentials.
Now unless I find the reformed thug who has traded in his Jordan's for loafers, this is how it will be. Let's see how long I can get away with playing this game…
