My Halloween Wish List (As Christmas is Too Far Away)

Okay, Universe. I'm ready. I'm ready to let go, a la Sandra Bullock in Practical Magic; I'm giving up on finding my ideal (read: "close enough") mate on my own and sending my needs to you. It isn't nearly as quirky and overly specific as Sandra's character in PM, which is why I don't understand how I haven't found this bloke yet, but whatever. I'm over it.  Let Fate send me the man of my dreams (and God give me the vision to recognize him as such)...
 
Physical traits: I know it's shallow to start with this but chemistry is chemistry and I absolutely have to find the guy physically attractive (and he has to feel the same about me). Specifically he should have: dark hair, light eyes, athletic build (especially the shoulders and arms), taller than me by at least 3 inches, glasses are a plus, and a decent fashion sense (but isn't so vain as to think he's a gift to women)
Or someone like him.
I'll even wave the dark hair requirement.
Personality Traits: Um, I've had to break this down for you, Universe, because personality is a pretty vague category, so how about this:

1. Conversation Interests:
  • philosophy,
  • literature,
  • MST3K-type comedy,
  • Monty Python,
  • Paranormal (Apocalypse, Zombies, etc, etc),
  • basically someone who has something to talk to me about (and has the intelligence and wherewithal to back it up with facts and data--in a non-arrogant way)
Yes, things happening. In the brain area.
2. Likes:
  • Adventure (the more spontaneous and extraordinary, the better);
  • Sex (on a somewhat regular basis would be nice);
  • Traveling (especially to new places);
  • Dogs (bonus if he has one for Murphy to play with);
  • Nature and exercise (but not a body-builder...ew);
  • Kids (and the possibility of having a couple)
  • Laughing;
  • Drinking (on occasion);
  • Saturday all-day lie-ins (love not getting out of my PJs once in a while);
  • Netflix;
  • spicy foods;
  • Washing up the dishes (if I cook);
  • and of course, ME
I mean, come on. Look how cute I am!
3. Relationship Requirements:
  • WANTS to be with me and seeks me out on his own
  • Desires to go out with me but who is also happy sitting at home and having a pint on occasion;
  • continues to win my heart--not every single day but regularly enough--so I always know I am loved;
  • loves and loves completely;
  • isn't afraid or petrified by the thought of 'forever';
  • is willing to consider said forever with me
NOPE; THERE ARE ONLY CLICHE
OR FLIPPING TWILIGHT PICTURES
ON GOOGLE IMAGES---NO.
NO CLICHE B.S. JUST REAL.
 
4. Dealing with Me Requirements:
  • will hold me when I cry for no reason,
  • won't hold that fact against me (or any other moodiness I may exhibit);
  • recognizes that every person is fighting her own battle and seeks to understand mine, and me understand his
So, this, but with us instead
and no weird website name following us.

I hope I've been specific enough for you, Universe (but not too specific that this guy doesn't exist). I know I have some things of my own to finish before I can devote myself to a proper relationship, but if you could at least send him in my general direction sometime soon, I'd really appreciate it.
 
Patience has never exactly been my virtue.
