keys to the ivy league

i want a boy who supports me in my various endeavors. he'll help me out with rockstar promotions, be excited when i tell him i'm trying out for j.v., help me relax before a job interview, cram for midterms and finals with me.

i want a boy who never puts me down. he'll never say what i'm doing is stupid, or pointless, or lame. he'll never seriously criticize my interests or my passions. he'll never belittle me or my accomplishments.

i want a boy who never curses at me. he'll never call me a bitch or tell me "fuck you", even jokingly.

i want a boy who will take me out on occasional dates, maybe like once a month. he'll take me ice skating, even if he can't skate, or simply take me to a movie in boston. every night won't be a movie night at his place and he'll mix things up occasionally.

i want a boy who puts talking to me above other distractions. if we're having a real conversation on the phone, he won't be playing a video game or chatting online with his friends. he'll think i'm important enough to have his attention, even for 30 minutes.

i want a boy who will lose gracefully. if i win a game out of merit, he won't cop out and be a sore loser, or quit the game right before it ends, or tell me he let me win. he'll accept defeat with dignity.

I want a boy who will read this and picture himself as the guy im talking about.

i've done this before (in like 10th grade), and i even have a feeling there are some repeats, but i felt i needed a refresher as to what i deserve in a guy, instead of what i've learned to settle for. this is a semi-rebuttal against the injustices i was dealt in my past relationship. i'm not over it, though in retrospect i'm able to acknowledge all of the bad things that i dealt with. reminding myself that i have worth and deserve something greater than what i had is helping me cope, even just a little bit. i really don't think i ask for much in a guy. i know guys like this exist somewhere. i'll meet one someday. i know it.
