The man of my dreams

This might seem a little odd, but I did not want to give up on the idea to find a person in the big wide world, who walks around and waits for me. With this short list, I'll use my chances so this person will be able to find me.

In other words:
Modest woman looks for perfect man, who can make all her wishes come true!

If you think (after reading til the very end of this page) you are the right fit for me and I won't run away screaming the first time we'll meet (please no mustache), send me an email. And, by the way, I am not desperate. I just want to screen potential candidates so we both don't have to waste our time dating and then finding out we are not compatible at all. So, I know you are out there. If it's you, contact me.

Test for every day life compatibility

Weekday mornings
1. you can get up fast, early and in a good mood, if you have to
2. if there isn't time for breakfast it's no problem for you
3. you just have a cup of tea or coffee in the kitchen
4. you can shower quickly

Weekend mornings
5. you enjoy staying in bed, cuddling and reading
6. having breakfast in bed, a nice brunch with scrambled eggs

Nice weather days

15. about crazy ideas, traveling and fairy tales (from authors like Goldt, Droste, Kracht, Watzlawick, Doerrie, and others)
16. you like brainstorming about funny things, crafting collages, writing short stories, drawing, talking, maybe even playing piano
