Be The Imperfect Man She Wants

We women may go gaga over celebs like George Clooney and Daniel Craig who appear nothing less than perfect on-screen, but when it comes to who we wake up with day in and day out, we'll always prefer a lovably flawed human to a ridiculously slick robot. While perfection is alienating and intimidating, flaws can be sweet and endearing. To prove my point, here is a trio of so-called shortcomings that actually make us swoon:

Your tunnel vision: Only the most boring men are capable of achieving a perfectly balanced life. We appreciate the passionate way you throw yourself 100 percent into a single project and don't come up for air—or bother to shower—until it's finished.

Your sad attempts to match your socks to your tie: Men who won't leave the house unless they're impeccably dressed give off a little (OK, a lot) of that scary, American Psycho vibe. A guy in jeans and a cozy sweater is someone we can trust.

Your boyish attitude toward the female body: Worldly gentlemen may be able to appraise a pair of breasts with the detachment of an art critic, but we absolutely adore the way you drool over our twin cupcakes. We want to be devoured in bed, not coolly appreciated.

So be smart, sexy, thoughtful, and funny. But, whatever you do, please don't be perfect.
