What’s On Your List? “The Love List”

I always imagined that my perfect husband would be a native New Yorker, probably a few years older than me. He would be working at a media company of some sort, have the same obsession with pop culture that I do, he would be neat (or neatish . . . definitely not a slob), always on time, probably of Italian decent, probably a little too into gender stereotypes (but I’d learn to live with it). I imagined him as a dog person – maybe he even owned one already. I also assumed he probably would never take me to the theatre and I’d wind up going alone, or not going at all once I was married.
That was my list.
