Every Friday a female guest blogger stops by to give us her opinion of what makes a man exceptional. This week Jennifer Lantro, of RedEye Royalty fame, steps up to the plate. Enjoy.–cg
EXCEPTIONAL
1. forming an exception or rare instance; unusual; extraordinary
2. unusually excellent; superior
What does it really mean? What makes a man exceptional? We walk among them, converse with them, so what sets them apart from the ever enduring male population? Is it his hair, his eyes, his physique, his height? With so much weighing on outside appearances people often forget what makes a relationship last. And though I’m young I know it won’t be those baby blues…..
Me? Personally it’s his knowledge and his humor. There is nothing more sexy than a man who can make you laugh and smile from ear to ear. One that is on top of his game, quick-witted and can take a joke. Knowledge, sarcasm and laughter together add up to one amazing night, week — lifetime.
As we often hear, LIFE. IS. SHORT. Why waste it on being so serious? It won’t help you get through this trip we call life any easier. But laughter sure will. And a great, funny, smart guy right by your side will make this adventure so memorable you’ll never want the fun to end.
So to all those single ladies out there waiting for that GQ model to walk up and buy you a drink: realize that’s about all he’ll be able to do. I prefer to be entertained.
Hi, I’m Jennifer. I live what a preach here especially. My exceptional man is all this rolled into a 26 year old Senior Systems Admin at a prestige college in downtown Chicago…he keeps me balanced, supporting me emotionally, physically–every way possible all while making me smile daily. I am so lucky.

You stole my reason. Almost every week Bryan asks me “Why do you love me?” and I respond “Because you make me laugh harder than anyone I’ve ever met.”
Agreed! Seriously. I love a guy with a great, smart sense of humor and one that gets my own.
As someone that performs stand up comedy, I am very glad that someone recognized the importance of laughter and how having a sense of humor can make a guy attractive as well. I think it is a feature that is ignored quite often.
LOVE this post. So true!! The reason I love Ry so much is because we can make each other laugh so hard we cry. Having FUN is so much a part of love. <3 Great post!!!
