1. A woman looks hottest wearing what?
One of my shirts.
2. What’s the best relationship advice you’ve ever been given?
Watch how you communicate with a woman. Because you’re always communicating, even when you’re not talking—with your body language, your facial expressions, your eyes.
3. What do you consider your most alpha quality?
I’m old-school English, so I suppose I’m quite protective—especially of time. Now that I’m a father, every moment is precious.
4. Is there a compliment you most like to receive from a woman?
“He’s a gentleman.” Men treat men differently than they would a woman. The crew I mountain bike with, there’s just constant digging. But around women, it’s different. Being a gentleman is a worthy goal.
5. Cheating: forgivable or a deal breaker?
