140-200:
The man you want is more of an accessory than a companion. You are so busy
doing your own thing, leading your own life, that you are after casual
flirtations, lavish parties and exotic holidays - things to make life glamorous
and exciting. But you don't want to start worrying about jealousies and
long-term arrangements. If a man wants a share of your company, he must be
successful, look good, arrange exciting things for you to participate in - and
be ready to back off the moment you decide you want to move on. This man suits
you well for now. You may well change when you get a little older and find that
the most extravagant of parties can seem a bit shallow when you have no-one to
share it with. And beware of falling in love with the kind of man who suits you
now - he is probably the social-butterfly type himself.
70-135:
Your ideal man is successful at what he does - but you don't mind what that job
is. He appreciates your independence but he also understands your need for a
caring, trusting relationship, too. Your Mr Right seems happy-go-lucky to all
who meet him - but you know the deeper, more sensitive side which you would not
be without. You can often find him playing sports, surrounded by a group of
friends, both male and female. He always looks presentable, but he is certainly
not obsessed by his appearance. He is as happy sitting at home with a cosy
feast as he is at a midnight beach party. If you have already found him - hang
on. He is perfect for you.
0-65:
Your ideal man will understand that you do not care much for the independent
life. He is one of the lads but you do not mind that because your home and
family come before everything. Your Mr Right likes you to look after him - and
that is just what you want to do. You need to be needed, and although he might
present a one-of-the-boys image, you now he would be lost without you. Your man
must provide everything you hold dear: security, home and a family.
