That man had girls, as in more than one, hitting on him? Tell that man to publish a book for men already.

He had a whole ward of nurses after him, and he had no idea. I had the biggest crush on him for a year, I would go into work an hour early just so he could hand a set of car keys over to me. He never noticed. I just typed up our whole courtship and how I eventually nabbed him, but it went on for 3 paragraphs and it would probably bore you all. So, long story short, in the end I got him and we have been together for 16 years. And as for why so many women liked him, both before he was married and after. First, he is very good looking, but he doesn't think so. He has the sexiest forearms and beautiful veins. But having dated good looking guys in the past, its something that makes me wary. But the thing that is most important and makes him more than just eye candy, is he is always so polite and helpful. He is well spoken, really funny, kind, caring,etc, generally a very nice person. A person can have model looks, but if they have a horrible personality, it will quickly make them very ugly. He is not perfect, no one is, but he has many good qualities that make him stand out. Another thing that is very sexy, intelligence. My husband didn’t have the opportunity to really show it before I got to know him, but the way his mind works is just amazing.

Any tips on where to find guys like your husband?

C'mon, spill the beans, #50! I'll read your little novella!

Oh OK, since you asked so nicely. So after lusting after this poor guy from afar for months, trying to think of jobs to call him for so he would come up to the ward, I had a shift with one of the midwives he would drive regularly. He was a wardsman (orderly or porter type thing). The hospital area we worked at had 2 maternity units, we would deliver the baby at our main hospital, and if everything was OK the mothers could go to the other unit about 15 min away. They were driven by a wardsman and escorted by a midwife just in case. So the midwife said 'Lesser, you are such a nice person, how come you are not married or have a boyfriend?' I gave her my reasons and a list of qualities I was looking for in a boyfriend/partner. She had also happened to ask the exact same thing to him on one of their trips (but swap boyfriend for girlfriend) and what we had said matched up perfectly. She asked if she could give him my number. So next time he drove her, she asked him if he knew me (he wasn't sure) and she told him she thought I was a nice person and she gave him my number and suggested he ask me out on a date. He rang up within the week and asked me out to a movie. Our date lasted for over 12 hours. Met for lunch, went to a movie, went out to dinner, went to another movie, then we talked till after midnight. Then he completely freaked me out by asking me to marry him. On our first date! Anyway, we dated for 2 years, (he did ask me to marry him another 3 times in that time) and we have been married for 14 years now. One of the reasons he said why he never picked up on my hints I was interested is because he though that he being a wardsman and me as a midwife, he didn't think he was good enough to date a nurse and that I was somehow 'above him' or out of bounds. So stupid. Also, he had heard that there was a Dr who was interested in me, and thought that I would be more interested in a Dr, rather than 'just a wardsman'. At first he was a little uncomfortable with the fact that I made more money than him. He eventually found that it was a wonderful thing because after we had been married for a year, I worked to put him through uni, and he is now a radiographer. By having a good wage, it meant that he could study without having to work part time and he could graduate without a HECS debt. So that's the story of how we got together. And as for tips on where to meet men like my husband. I was just in the right place at the right time.

Yeah, I'm thinking maybe she misunderstood what he said, like hearing "hook up" instead of "team up." If you're paranoid about getting hit on, slip-ups like that can happen quickly.
