That few moments before going to sleep when I was at complete relaxation and felt arms around me. Now it's a million pillows surrounding me like a fort. Still missing something...

Having someone to watch sleep all night besides the cat.
Having stripes all over my body under my shirt because they lose control.
Having a surprise 2 am snack watching the stars or old movies.
Knowing someone will worry if I don't call or show up somewhere.

I miss having someone to go places with. And someone to call and say "hey, I forgot the *blank* for dinner. Can you swing by and grab some on the way over?" I don't know that I miss it enough to have a partner right now though. But sometimes I do miss being part of an us instead of just me.

I miss a trusted mind to make tough decisions with. I miss taking pride in our home together and sharing dreams.

I miss the serenity I found "knowing" we would age together sharing silly songs, fur-kids, good and bad cooking, road trips, making up after disagreeing. Hell, I miss diagreement.

I miss the heat of our passion and knowing we would accept each other's ways of aging with kindness.

I miss feeling whole and knowing the gifts of interdependence.

I know, however, that all that I miss is not worth travel down a path with the wrong person.

I was getting into the shower tonight and realized that I really miss having someone to brush my hair for me. Maybe that could be a fundraiser at the Reunion. Some nice Butch could raffle themselves off to brush someone's hair for a while.... I'd bid on that.

I miss...
 

Coffee ready when I wake up; warm cup of soup when I am ill; sex whenever and always (although I have learned a lot about my own sexual pleasure than I did when coupled for so long); the strong arms to hold me to give me inner strength when times are hard; when I see a funny movie or laugh at The Big Bang Theory but I am laughing alone-oh gosh getting maudlin here. I do not want to remain single forever but am not desperate or needy. I am comfortable in my skin with myself but want to have someone to share my skin.

Aww, I can relate! You know femmes would be happy to brush your hair too..

small talk about big stuff

being held until i fall asleep

cooking an amazing brunch and having someone to sit outside with me and enjoy it

True! Very true... I'm laughing at myself because the weather's turned HOT and the humidity is rising so I've got mad curls again. I was just thinking to myself (again) "That's it, THIS is the summer I'm going to shave my head!"

I say that every summer around this time of year.(w)

I miss...
 

I miss everything about it
I miss laying side by side entwined legs and arms talking and just feeling
I miss the way she would love me with her words and gestures
most of all I miss how happy she would get when I said hi

Making sure we're not dressed too much alike. Or that our hair doesn't match.

OK, I'm freaking out...
 

I don't quite know where to post this...but I'm asking a question...how can I start a new thread - I tried, but did not get the proper questions to ask...please let me know what the apprppriate steps are? Thank you so much.

Hey Im new but I believe you just click the new thread button on the upper left of the page...like when in a thread it says post reply there :) I hope that helps

Being necessary to someone other than my boss.

My green sweatshirt.

Walking down the street and feeling her hand slip in to mine.

Popping one eye open while lying in bed just in time to see her walk across my line of sight wearing nothing but a towel after her bath.
