Get the Ethan Charlesmug. Charles is sensitive and erudite. He will ask you questions inviting you to think more deeply about things that you normally wouldnt allow yourself to. He is always down for a sleepover—a classic one. He is one of the most handsome men you will meet. His hair is beautifully coiffed and well maintained, so much so you want to run your fingers through it but get scared about messing it up. Charles, even if he is a stranger to you, will make you feel at ease. Charles has great banter. You will be lucky to be a friend to Charles. You will honestly be lucky to be any sort of companion to Charles. If you meet a Charles at a work conference, you may make a deep, unexpected, but very welcome, connection. Charles seems like a great kisser, but you unfortunately haven’t had the pleasure of confirming that (yet). Most people hope they get the chance to kiss Charles.
Jane: Tommy and I met a Charles at a work conference.
Mary: No way. Let me guess. The two of you wine and dined him, went back to his place, and made out?
Jane: We actually had a super lovely night together, wine and dine included… no kissing though. I’m not mad about it but that would have been the cherry on top. Instead the three of us made a really intimate and thoughtful emotional connection, classic sleep-over style.
Mary: Sounds like a Charles alright…
