Men: It must be harder than I thought

My recent conversations with FIGO have made my *heart* go out to you men.

I'm not saying that I'm the MOST impressive woman out there. Heck, there is a LOT more that I could be doing. But I'm not half shabby.

But on more than one occassion he has said, "wow, that's really unique," or "wow, I'm surprised."

Clearly his experiences with other women have set the bar pretty low.

Yes, I'm decisive (especially when it comes to dining).
Yes, I've been educated at a top-notch University.
Yes, I've got a bubbly personality but like to read BBC news and have serious discussions.
Yes, I like fishing, hiking, watching sports.
Yes, I was the co-captain of the basketball team many moons ago.
Yes, I have opinions and I'm not scared to voice them.
Yes, I've done a lil' bit of traveling and am down for adventure.

IMO, he's got potential to attract quality women as well. He's a gentleman, got a nice build, has a sense of humor, can converse about an array of topics, has good job that affords him some nice material things, has had a quality up-bringing. I could see where the flighty woman might say he's too nice. He's a bit older (35) than I'd prefer; however, he's focused on his career...he's had jobs in which he travels more than 30% of the time for quite some time, which makes it difficult to sustain a relationship.
