WE know that when you imagine Prince Charming, he's not that serial-burping, merino-wearing dude with a beer belly who has wormed his way into your heart and onto your couch on football Sundays. But you love him, darn it, and nothing's gonna take your love away.
Guess what? Who says you can't have it all — that Lothario you've been dreaming of since you were 12, and the loving attention and affection that your 4/10 rated dude at home slathers on you?
Well you can. All it takes is a little seduction, a little imagination, and you'll have your dream guy.
"Fantasies can in fact help, not harm the relationship," said family counsellor Davina Kelly. "So if he's game, allow him to help you live out the fantasies you have of your knight in shining armour. If he's not, and you love him, find a way to make his flaws work for you."
So:
1. Is the only shining thing on his person that fake Gucci belt buckle you can't get him to trash? Are you yearning for more of the armour-type shine — that gallant knight who will save you, a fair maiden in distress? He can transform, trust us. Every chance you get, let him play Sir Galahad — whether it's proving his manhood by whacking that bothersome cockroach; carrying your boxes up the stairs; or opening the door for you. Thank him profusely each time, and reward him at the end, of course, so being a knight will become second nature.
2. Work that belly. So he has a beer gut, and he has made a pledge to you and Budweiser that it's staying put. What can you do? Work with it. Let him love you in positions where it's not that obvious. And if you're into comedy, true comedy, play a tune on that beefy banjo with your kisses.
3. It'd be cool if your guy was named Juan, but you too can make your Delroy into your own Don Delroy with a few slick moves, and some wine. Tell him you're role playing; tell him there's a prize for him at the end; have him dress up like Antonio Banderas in Desperado, smoke a cigar, drink some wine and if he knows some Español, all the better. Get blitzed, give him some Salma Hayek-esque loving and watch the transformation. Wine maketh all things look and feel better.
4. Don't laugh the next time he attempts to serenade you with Jungle Boogie, indeed showing appreciation for his taste in 'love' songs will open him up to appreciating your tastes more. So let him sing like Kool and the Gang; let him lure you in with Chaka Khan; do the Teddy P dance. Once you're relaxed and open and settled, you'll forget feeling like a fool and more like a fool in love.
5. Teach him the art of confidence. Yes, he can be confident no matter what he looks like and he has to be confident to come off as attractive. Introduce him to the Jay Z factor. Let him see that he can still be dapper and still turn on the swag even with a face like a 'roo. When he does that, people will tune into the personality and not the looks.
