I don’t want to go to bed with Rachel and wake up with Leah. I want someone who does not repulse me when I wake up in the morning and see her without make-up. I don’t want to have to explain when I’m being sarcastic. I don’t want to have to do a lot of explaining period. The more we have in common the better.
I don’t want a woman who’s high maintenance. I’m not high maintenance. I don’t need a ton of care and catering to. I’m solid. Reliable. My behavior isn’t all over the map. I’m predictable.
I want a woman who’s reliable. Someone who reads social cues. Somebody who shows up on time, who pays her bills, is responsible and hard-working. Orthodox Judaism is hard work. I need someone who can shoulder the load.
I want a woman who wants to take what I have to give and a woman who wants to give what I want to take. I want a good loving woman. I want someone who reads books. That way we’re not likely to get bored with each other.
I can bring to the relationship the qualities of the hard-working responsible man with good credit and good health. I’m well-read, curious about life, constantly seeking to grow and to improve. I’m committed to my weekly psycho-therapy and my daily writing, my daily Judaism and my daily 12-step work.
