I was just talking to my best friend (we've known each other for fourteen years, so there's no one on this planet that knows me better than her, and vice versa). She described to me her new stalkee crush and I said he sounded exactly her type.
"What? I don't have a type!"
Hmm. Pale, skinny but not particularly tall, dark hair, sort of elfin features, a bit indie. Also moody and a bit of a barsteward (although my perception may be skewed because all the 4am crisis calls I've had to deal with). The perfect example would be TomStu, and I am trying to keep his existence a secret from her, because otherwise all our conversations for the next year will involve him in some way.
She conceded that I might have a point.
I am fully aware that I have a type - tall, lanky build, also pale with dark hair (by dark I mean not blonde or ginger), blue or green eyes, angular features, makes me laugh (v v important that last one). You can see where my thing for Rob comes from. Not all guys I've been out with or crushed on fit this description, but a high proportion hold one or more characteristics.
So, campers, do you have a 'type'? Describe and post pictures of your ideal man (or woman). You can also use the opportunity to introduce each other to men that fit your criteria :)
