The Perfect Man

Without him, my life will not be complete. He, is the perfect man in my heart.

He is a musician, specializing in saxophone. But probably because he is quite
gifted in playing the instruments, he is also a rock�n�roll drummer and plays
the clarinet, flute, guitar and piano as well. At the moment he is the leader of
the local jazz big band, and also teaches music in a school. A song is normally
not written for a particular kind of band, therefore, sometimes he has to make
arrangements for his band too.

He is very gentle, hardly ever angry, because he doesn�t think there�s anything
that�s worth his anger. He hardly complains either, because he thinks that is
quite boring. If there�s any problem, he will try everything to solve it and
wastes no time complaining. He is very patient. He can sit at the desk and
practice writing Chinese characters for one or two hours. The first characters
he learned to write was his Chinese nickname: �messy hair�, because he�s always
got a head of messy hair. I teasingly gave him a nickname �Jazz Beethoven�!

Even though he is a musician, his ability and interests are not limited to this
field. He is very good at working with computers, he is the free computer
engineer for all his friends, he will be there whenever he is �summoned� . When
the car breaks down, he will fix it himself too, we do not need to spend a dime.
Once I almost broke my mother-in-law�s washing machine, he took the whole
thing apart, and thoroughly fixed it, my mother-in-law knew nothing about this.
But later he just had to tell her and GREATLY teased me about it. Whenever
his friends need his help, he will do his best to help them without asking for any
returned favor. But because he has knowledge to do so many things, you can only
see him helping others, but never others helping him. He said, �I can do all these
things myself, I don�t need any help.� The only time we asked for help was when
we moved. Because so many friends got help from him, when we last moved,
there were 8 people coming to help us. Within half an hour, it was all done and
we were sitting in the living room drinking coffee. It was amazing!

He is very busy, but if he has the time he is very willing to help me do some
housework. He can clean the apartment very well and leaves no corners
undone. After every dinner he will tenderly thank me for the dinner I made
for him and tell me: � It was soooooooo good!�

I cannot record how he says his goodbye to me on the phone, otherwise
I would really like you to hear it. A sweet �Bye� so gently said, just for me.

There is no one else on earth more perfect than him.

It reminds me of my perfect man!
He's so perfect and, therefore, so impossible!

Sniff!

Hi!

I'm so glad you say that about your marriage! Sadly, current marriages don't last more than five years (if they do, it's a miracle) but, more than that, what is sad is that love has extinguished after some time. I'm really happy to know it isn't your case, and I wish the best for you for the future!

Keep on like that!!!
