“So what’s one of your favorite things about her?”
Him – “Oh boy, you’re putting me on the spot right now. Um, well aside from a classic beauty that I find, I’m always intimidated by how smart she is…she’s very well informed, she’s a sociology major, she’s going for her masters. She’s very conscious when it comes to ethnic studies, I really like how conscious she is.”
“And you?”
Her – “Well obviously he’s very charming, very old school, which you don’t see very often anymore. And he knows a million facts about everything-“
Him – “Useless facts.”
Her – “They’re not useless. He could write one of those fact books because he always has all this knowledge that’s coming out from everywhere. Also, I really appreciate not only his love of fashion but his knowledge of it because he ties together fashion with history and politics. It goes beyond knowing how to dress well, he really studies the folds and the creases and the lines in the clothing, and the length of an arm jacket on a blazer according to time period and what that meant for men’s fashion but also what was going on in the world.”
Him – “It all tells a story, you’re well aware of that.”
