If you are forced to make a classification of qualities that possessed by your girlfriend/boyfriend, then what would it be? These qualities didn't have to be much, but yet, it should be enough. Enough to describe briefly about your dream prince or princess, enough to illustrate your imagination of a perfect companion, enough to represent your idea of an ideal partner in crime, partner in good and bad, partner in ups and downs, and most importantly, partner for a lifetime. Something or someone suddenly pop-upped in your mind, no? Then that something or someone must have been a special part of your life, like it or not.
For me, though I actually didn't really do types and classifications, I would like my boyfriend to have two simple traits: smart and funny. This two characters seems to be really simple, rite? But in fact, it is not that simple for someone to have both of it and implemented it in the best way I'd love.
By smart I'm not imagining someone with thick glasses (though it would work too) with thick books in his hands, or a bookworm who spend all night in the library studying some encyclopedia or trying to formulate a formula. By smart I'm thinking of someone who didn't have to show off his smartness, instead he would just play it cool and observe his surroundings. I'm thinking of this special one who will remain silent when the others were busy boasting their ideas out loud, even though his ideas is probably way more better than the others. I'm dreaming of a man who is not only good in reading textbooks, but a man with wide knowledge from those unreadable research papers and articles. I'm picturing a person with an outstanding capability to manage his social-life balanced with his working-life. I'm imagining someone who have his head up in the sky, but keep his heart low down to the ground.
But instead of being just smart, this ideal man for me should also be funny. Why funny? Because who bears a never ending talk about the world crisis, or nonstop chats about gasoline's price, or hours of debates about rights and wrongs in currency war, and other critical issues without jokes between it? I need a man who could make a joke of Italy's lost from German either in their football match or in their economic condition, I need a man who could make a joke of Japan's diehard people, I need a man who could make a joke of our country's spurious growth, I need a man who could make a joke out of anything, everything. This man must've read many books, must've listen to many people, and finally he must've proceed informations he gained altogether. Because this man I love, should be a smart joker. Not a stupid joker who could only be funny by insulting others (or insulting themselves).
I don't need some sweet and romantic guy who treats me like a fragile princess. All I ever needed is someone with a big head to be smart, a big heart to stay humble, and a big joke to meltdown the atmosphere. I never dream of a guy who will bring me flowers every month, remember every date of our dates, throw me a surprise party for my birthday, or pick me up and take me home everyday. All I wanted is someone who will stay strong in my lowest days, brings me up when something pushed me down, cheer me up when the nights are long, cope up with both of my stupid and smart talks, add up his knowledge and share everything that he reads with me, everyday.
