Ok! Let's get to tallying your scores!
0-4: Well, girlfriend, you are probably the designated spider-squisher in this household, aren't you?
5-14: A nice balance! Plenty of manliness, but he may occasionally "cook" something other than a sandwich.
15-24: I am not necessarily saying the dating a manly man is the best option, but you, lady, have
learned to live with it.
25: If you selected all 25 of these traits then, well, you must be dating James and we need to have a talk.
Happy Valentine's day, James. I never in a million years thought I would date a man who I would also catch wiping his face on my table linens, but alas, here we are, 6 1/2 years later. Thank you for teaching me so much about your world, and for bringing me all of your dead animals.
