Dear Bobby,

... I'm a 36 year old woman and it seems to me that what attracts me most, since I stepped over 30, is younger men...something needs to change and fast. But what? I need help figuring out what I need to do to find the right combination for me.

Dear brave brave woman,

I love relationship questions from Lebanese people. Why? Because they often think that that we're practically alien to the things that actually make good & healthy relationships work or don't work. Just because some of us can't properly pronounce the letter 'p' in 'bolice' and the kids stay at home or close to it (girls AND boys, often enough) until they get married, means that we're some sort of unrealistic fringe cases in what we want and desire in a significant other. If I may be so bold...

What you're looking for is not some super-Lebanese-man, but more so, a well adjusted, multifaceted man who can scowl and bear down when things get dirty & serious, but can be a retarded goofball when he's a little drunk and occasionally spontaneous, grab you by the hand with $76 in your collective pockets and go to Atlantic City just because television and hanging out with your Aunt Samira again are simply less desirable options at the moment. While this type of man is a bit of a rarity, they do exist. Are they necessarily Earth-walking gods? Shit, no. He may have a uni-brow. He may have a little more than a tolerable 'kirish', or a little worse of a job than your mother would like, but he will not think twice about taking you somewhere you didn't expect 15 minutes before, or pinning you up against a wall or sling you over a couch arm and having his way with you that will make you unexpectedly smile the next day while you're kneeling & filing something in a metal cabinet at work the next day, wondering why your legs are kinda sore...
