[04:46.25]Alfonso(Mexico) [04:50.09]I'm really attracted to Scandinavian girls-tall.blonde,sporty. [04:59.02]out-going,the complete opposite of me!I used to like older girls. [05:05.68]but I've had a few bad experiences, [05:09.94]so now I'm looking for something different. [05:14.62]My ideal partner now would be five or six years younger than me. [05:20.86]I also want somebody who is independent. [05:25.41]who desn't always need to be near me. [05:29.67]and I think that the girls I've met from Sweden or Norway or Denmark [05:35.73]tend to be very strong-willed. [05:39.88]The only thing I'm worried about [05:44.03]is that perhaps they would find me a bit quiet and shy. [05:49.78]I'm not very confident about myself.so that could be a problem. [05:56.26]Rie(Japan) [06:00.33]I don't really have a type. [06:04.70]The most important thing for me is that my partner is nice and sensitive and caring. [06:12.56]I'd never go out with someone who was selfish or big-headed. [06:18.62]It doesn't really matter to me whether somebody is good-looking or not. [06:24.68]so long as they're not too ugly! [06:28.94]I'd never go out with a man who didn't look after himself.though. [06:35.10]It's important that he's healthy. [06:39.36]that he watches what he eats and that he's fairly fit! [06:45.00]Chiara(Ltaly) [06:48.95]I want someone who likes clothes.I work in the fashion industry in Milan, [06:56.81]so the way someone dresses is really important to me. [07:02.37]I'd never go out with someone who didn't care about the way they looked. [07:08.25]I used to like really good-looking men. [07:13.29]but I've changed my mind about that. [07:17.37]because they tend to be so big-headed!I also really love music, [07:25.13]so I'd never go out with someone who didn't like music. [07:30.48]If I'm honest,I'm also attracted to younger men. [07:36.23]so I'm looking for someone who's maybe in their early twenties. [07:41.69]Lauren(Cameroon) [07:45.24]I'm a married man, [07:50.20]so I'm the wrong person to ask a question like this to.really. [07:56.45]When I was single.I used to think I wanted somebody who was easy to talk to, [08:04.00]somebody who understood me and how I was feeling. [08:08.96]somebody who was serious and religious,like I am-and then I met my wife. [08:16.90]and she was everything I was looking for.and more! [08:22.33]I can't believe how lucky I've been, [08:27.17]but then I have to say that,or she'll kill me! [08:32.42]Thorsten(Germany) [08:36.57]To be honest,I'm too old now to be fussy,really. [08:42.63]I want anybody who will have me! [08:46.89]I used to worry about the kind of person that was right for me and I used to think I wanted somebody who was slim and sexy and intelligent [08:56.55]and who had her own money and her own job and things like that, [09:02.20]but now I've reached my forties and I'm still single. [09:07.45]I've lowered my standards!It's taken me a long time. [09:13.01]but I've realised that I'm not the best-looking man in the world or the richest. [09:19.49]and so I'd be happy just meeting someone who liked me!Sad,isn't it! [09:26.75]Seon-Hee(Korea) [09:31.43]I know this sounds strange,but all I really want is someone with nice hands! [09:39.19]I used to go out with this man who played the piano. [09:44.33]and he had really beautiful hands-long,slim fingers.but really strong as well, [09:52.88]Mm!I'd never go out with somebody who had short,fat,little fingers,I just couldn't. [10:01.13]1 Used to and would [10:13.69]You are going to hear the man in Picture 1 [10:18.34]talking about how he has changed over the last fifteen years. [10:32.22]A lot of people don't believe it when they see pictures of me when I was younger, [10:37.86]because I used to look really,really different. [10:42.40]I used to have quite long hair.and I used to dress quite differently too. [10:49.95]I'd wear a lot of really loud clothes and a lot of bright colours. [10:56.51]I used to play bass in a band and we used to be kind of famous. [11:02.57]We made a few records and we'd go on tour quite a lot. [11:08.45]I got to see the world a bit.I used to be a bit wilder than I am. [11:16.49]I've really calmed down quite a lot, [11:20.75]but when I was eighteen or nineteen, [11:24.90]I'd be out every night,clubbing.dancing,drinking,you know. [11:32.06]It's funny,because even though I used to be much slimmer than I am now, [11:38.59]I think I'm quite a lot fitter now. [11:42.82]I used to smoke around twenty a day, [11:47.55]but I stopped a few years ago,and took up jogging instead! [11:53.33]I think getting married has helped me calm down a lot.too. [11:59.28]I used to be a bit of a ladies' man before I met my wife, [12:04.74]and I'd always have two or three girlfriends I'd see at any one time. [12:11.30]but those days are long gone.I'm a one-woman man now. [12:17.04]I'm much happier now,too.When I was that age, [12:22.82]I used to feel a lot angrier and more confused about life. [12:29.35]I'm so glad I'm not a teenager any more!
