I don't think I could recognize him from a photo, but I have impressions. He's big. That's my main impression. He's big. He's tall, well over six feet. And big. Not thin so he seems solid and dependable. And not fat. Just big, but with enough softness to him to reinforce my maternal attachment.
Very large features. (This was initially important to me because he was attractive enough objectively that both my husband and mother commented on it. But I've never been attracted physically to large featured men, so I felt safe going to him. If he'd have looked like Dr. Drew I'd have run like the wind. Hard to concentrate therapeutically with gold arm hair curling over a watch band revealed by rolled up sleeves...)
Big brown puppy dog eyes that he uses to his advantage when he forgets himself. A fabulous southern drawl that he also uses when he forgets himself. Those things make me feel maternal rather than daughterly.
A deep radio voice that would sound fake except that it matches his size.
A laugh that reminds me of my daddy's fake hearty public laugh, so it doesn't appeal although for all I know it might be real.
