I like a boyish quality in a man, somebody who is still adventurous. But I have no rules. I do not care - within reason - about your chronological age. I care whether you have passion in your life.
When I was in high school in St. Louis my best friend was Marsha Mason. Marsha was a year ahead of me.
One fan wrote asking for a very specific autographed photo. He wanted me to pose in tight jeans and boots and even enclosed a sketch of how I should dress! A lot of them just say they wish they had a girlfriend like me. They're very endearing letters...
I date older men, and I date younger men. I have no rules about that.
I like a man who has a great curiosity and sense of adventure because that's the way I am. He has to have a willingness to be vulnerable and a willingness to see where the road takes us. And I want a man who is romantic.
I don't ever want to get too comfortable in my career or life. My nature is such that I'm always looking for new challenges.
I don't think perfect is interesting. I think what makes life exciting is the imperfections.
