George at 84, Every Woman's Dream Guy

Today I was invited to a lunch honoring George, who at 84 years old still loves teaching in the classroom and who gets so emotional when he talks about his love of life, he bursts into tears.  It happened twice today and each time, he won the heart of every woman present, around thirty of us.  Women are just suckers for a man who has the guts or heart, whichever organ may be involved (I'm not going there with you) to stand up in public and break into grateful sobs.  For a woman, this has serious meaning, guys take note.  If you ask us to explain it, you're wasting your time because we can't.   That's because it's a chick thing, this response we cannot control, like when a child is in trouble or  a tall handsome guy stops in mid sentence as his face turns a little pink and his voice catches with emotion.  That's the guy who's going home with the prom queen.  Irresistable.

His wife is a peach of a lady and protective.  Nobody would dream of messing with him or her.  In public, he stood up and shared a haiku he'd written for her:  My wife in her new party dress, I am in love again. Not a dry eye.  We might not want George, as he's taken already, but we all want one just like him.

My son tells me what a turn on it is for some women that he's a guy who knows about tools and how to use them (I'm not going there either). Same with knowing how to dance, he reports, not  exactly with a smug leer, but certainly an air of confidence.

The ideal man, then, is a man who cries openly, writes love poems to his wife and reads them in public, knows all about tools and how to use them and is a good leader on the dance floor.  It's not asking too much guys.  It's not so much about the size of your bank account any longer as women these days are willing to provide well for themselves.  It's all about feelings and skills.  If you're a man who isn't having success with women, just check for these three basics and take classes if necessary.

I could easily tell you about turnoffs, but today's advice  is about turn ons and I'd rather be on a date with an 84 year old like George than some jerk like the Donald, any day.   Comments welcome.
