[04:28.72]2.While you read
[04:42.49]What's your type?
[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!
