A problem for me has been expecting my partners to be a certain way based on what they look like or who they say/think they are.
If they present themselves as men in a "traditional" non "sensitive" kind of way, and I act accordingly (naturally), since I am horribly lacking on the romantic (remembering your birthdays and anniversary) and cuddling/foreplay department. They are upset that I am treating them like a man, when they are not. While really I am just being myself. I see myself as a dude emotionally and have been told that by every single person I have dated in my 32 years of dating. I try to be more emotional and romantic, I do. So expecting a person to be a certain way even if they think themselves that they are traditionally masculine in every way, does not mean they really are. Am I making any sense at all?
