What's Your Guy Type? (Episode 1)

How do you view your guy? Is he the handsome jock who allures bubbly cheerleaders; or, is he the clumsy nerd who happened to sweep you off your feet with his brainiac wiles and book smarts? Men come in many different molds, from zero to hero--loser to winner, simply depending on which "guy mold" grabs a hold of your heart.
Most may know him for his unstoppable passes on the football field or for the amount of points he placed on last night's scoreboard. Some refer to him as "dumb jock"; however, I like to call him "Mr. Athlete." Dating Mr. Athlete has its pros and cons, most certainly. He's tall and haughty, and works out his abs and triceps on a regular. He's charming and appealing; yet, cocky and unapproachable. Parties, "hotties", and fame are three major components that sum up his life outside of the field. Your mom thinks he's hot, your dad is his biggest fan, and your hometown praises his jersey number. He has big dreams and the right sense of dedication to make thinigs happen.
Maybe your guy is one of the lucky few to actually make it to the pros. If this is the case, then unfortunately, Mr. Athlete's package will sometimes include groupie baggage. These women constantly throw themselves at this man and often have no respect for his significant other. In addition to having to deal with money-hungry women, you have to spend much of your time alone, usually in a different state, because Mr. Athlete is always on the road.
Trust is key when dealing with a guy like this. If you have jealousy issues and feel the need to spend time with your guy for hours out of the day, Mr. Athlete may not be the guy for you. Perhaps, Mr. Romantic is who you're looking for. View Episode 2 to hear about this mold.
