My dream mate?
Ha! God forgot to make one!
I like a man with REAL substance. Sad thing too is: most women got all the real substance when we came popping out of mans side. Sorry guys, facts is facts ... your heart dribbled out in that process. Now, you can't help but need us, just to remind you of all that you long for.
For the sake of answering the Dream Mate question here... I will jog my heart momentarily and give my most honest responses. Hummm....

My dream mate ...
Now, I know why they say, dream...

                                                       Okay, here goes ...

A man who hungers to be one with his queen
A man who loves to play

See?... Told you God forgot to make one...
I get some of the most thought provoking letters.
Not long ago when asked, "Mary, why aren't you married?  What are you looking for in a man?"  I got to thinking, it is because not many men can handle me.  Nor would I subject them to my fanciful ideals and passions.  Then I realized that I just look for way too much in a man, and rather then put all my expectations on 'em ... better to just keep things the way they are. 
Anyway, when asked, "What is your dream mate to be like"?
