What am I looking for? (Walking Contradiction, Part II)

So what do you look for in a man (or woman)?
(I've decided I really want this blog to be interactive)

I know that what I want from a man continues my life of irony. I want a guy that understands that I am a strong woman, I know what I want, what I want to accomplish, and that it takes hard work, and time to get where I want to be. I also want a guy that is protective and a little jealous. I know, that seems odd, but there's a fine line that separates good jealousy from bad jealousy. Here in lies my walking contradiction, I want him to be a little jealous, but I want him to also understand that I'm an independent woman with great friends, and a great job that sometimes requires me to be at work or events later than I would like. Someone that also has goals, or has accomplished some of the goals of his life. But I don't want a guy that does the exact same things as me, I need some differences in my life. OH, and a HUGE bonus, like baseball! (Anyone who knows me, knows my two passions are Atlanta Braves Baseball, and being a Republican...so if a guy has those two things, baseball and Republican, he's already got some awesome bonus points!)

Walking Contradiction

Ok so I've definitely figured out that I don't know what I want. How's that for the ultimate in irony?? I've figured out that I enjoy being single, AND I enjoy being with someone. I guess we all go through this at some point in life... and that time is also the time when you're waiting to meet "the one." I have great friends, we have a lot of fun, but it's always nice to have someone (i.e. a guy) there for you as well. (Yes, of course my friends are there for me). But yet I don't know that I'm ready to give up the single life of going out with friends, and meeting people out in the world as well. I guess that just means I'm not ready to settle down....
