The Southern US is the best place to look. Starting with North Carolina. Specifically with Xizor’s house. After I charm you in person you will need to look no further. ---

He’s where I’ve hidden him with the girl of Quantums dreams in case she decides to become the girl of my dreams and I find the correct opportunity to auction him off on E-Bay as the man of (insert name here)s dreams. ---

I met a lot of my boyfriends in bars. Not the recommended way to meet someone but it worked a few times for me. I’ve also met guys walking through the mall, the grocery store, the parking lot, etc. It just happens. They’re everywhere! ---

Patience is normally best. Haste can cause you pain, and increases the chance you will find the wrong person, or a person who is mean to you. Move slowly. You are young. The right man will wait for you to be ready, not force the issue with guilt, begging, or anger. Do what you like to do. Sports, arts, culture, exercise - try to find someone who does the same. Do not rely on friends to introduce you, unless they are good, smart friends who know both you and the man well. Look for early warning signs that the guy has bad habits, is a criminal, is abusive, and break it off if so. And, if you really are interested, I’m sure there are lots of needy lesbians out there who would love a smart, pretty Swedish girlfriend… ---

I didn’t initiate conversation with Anniz and pick her so you could move in and take over my spot. And for that smack I’m going to borrow Falcon’s cluex4 and give you a thorough lesson in what NOT to do to me 🙂 [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/where-can-i-find-the-guy-of-my-dreams/28160.md?page=2)
