With Alice, it's the little things she says and does that steadily charm you - bit by bit- until you reach a final moment where the attraction graduates to pure adoration. For me, that realisation was as we arrived at her apartment. The way she thanked our driver profusely, and as we boarded the elevator she greeted strangers and wished them a nice day. This kind of sincere, unguarded decency is becoming a lost artform these days. But I realised it summed up Alice and the hours I spent with her perfectly- she is truly the extraordinary partner. Warmth, tenderness, honesty, humility and a sparkling humour that makes you feel relaxed and comfortable - the ultimate girl next door. Amazing blue eyes, alluring lips and her gorgeous smiles 'with her whole face' that she greets the world with will make your heart skip beats. More intimate physical features I wont elaborate on as they're just unspeakably divine. A stunning beauty whose looks are matched by an eager and open intellect, Alice will strike you early on as a keen listener who approaches people and life with curiosity - that there is something to learn from everyone. She contains absolute multitudes. Her interesting hobbies, her pets, her discerning tastes in food, wine and interior decoration, the breadth of her higher education and scientific knowledge are all so sexy. There is seemingly no end to the facets of Alice. Her sophistication will elevate you and open you to new worlds, if you let it. She's the companion of complete savoir-faire who could elevate any occasion and brighten anyone's day. In private, she will, quite simply, give you the whole world and you will long to give her the same in return. She made me feel remarkable and appreciated and good about myself, even though I don't feel that way a lot of the time. I don't know when I'll get to see the lovely Alice again. But until I do, the fond memory of our time together transports me back almost to the heady days of teenage romantic fantasy, built on concealed crushes and stolen kisses. Alice is a special secret, granted to no-one else I know, where the earnest affection we shared will offer a never-ending reserve of private bliss. Thank you Alice!
