She won’t be able to fall for someone who lacks drive and ambition, and her description of her ideal man fits Marc to a T. Her Prince Charming needs to be loyal, honest, love animals and be health conscious. She thrives when there is order and direction in her life and would not want her man to create unnecessary drama.
