What do YOU need to feel loved?

Andrew, Jr. · 05-24-2010, 03:55 PM

SuperFemme,

You are right. A terminal illness is a test. I know from watching my sister and her husband. How he would gently hold her when she cried, or when they were told that there was no chance of survival. The tears.

Or when one of our siblings would hold her head while she was having the after effects of chemo, experimental drugs, or stem cells and wiping off her face with a cool wet wash cloth. The love is just so obvious. It is tender, sweet, loving, and so bonding. Until you experience this love, you really never know what love is about or how deep it can be reached in your heart and soul.

It isn't about bravery or courage. It is about love. That is what life is really about. Some haven't figured that out yet, and may never. Thank God it isn't our issue.

Namaste my sweet, dear sister,
Andrew

Well, instead of posting what I need, I figured I would just let everyone know the kind of person I am.

We all know that while relationships can be incredibly fulfilling, they aren't always easy. They're hard work and require oodles of love, patience and, well, sometimes the ability to know when to keep your mouth shut! Those in relationships need to let their partner know some things about themselves. Here are a few things about me.....

I would rather feel unloved than inadequate and disrespected.

I enjoy romance. Pretty much of a hopeless romantic! But sometimes I doubt my skills to be romantic.

I care about my woman's appearance. Everyone knows that I am very visual but women often forget just how helpless I am to what I see. The right visual stimulation can hypnotize me. And I am sure it has the same effect on others.

I want my partner to know how much I care.

A woman who smiles, makes it easier for me to approach her by conveying an attitude of confidence and playfulness.

I rarely get listened to, at least not beyond a few minutes. Most of the time that is all I really need, but since I hate to be rejected, it is easier for me to keep conversations superficial.

I am stubborn.....that's not much of a secret! I would like to have my partner be able to take my shit as well as give it right back to me! I sometimes need a reality check of how I am acting!

Ok......these are just a few things about me!

Love is a mutual agreement between two hearts and souls...

I need a woman to BE HERSELF...
To actually Trust that I genuinely love her for who she is...
That even though I am cheezy/smooth, it is not an ACT, it is just me...
One who can take all my honesty, good and bad, and return the favor...
One who gets my humor, sometimes smartass/sarcstic...
& one who can comfort me...even when she is wrapped up in my arms...

Don't define me by what I'm not. Define me by what I am.

Don't look to complete me. Complement me.

Know my devotion is unwavering. And allow me to expect the same from you.

Treat me as you would want to be treated.

Accept me with all my faults, and know I will do the same for you.

I'm simply a human being. I'm frequently wrong. Don't remind me of every time I'm wrong.

Support me as I support you.

You can make suggestions concerning my conditions, and we can make a decision together, but don't ever make a decision about "me" without me.

Luckily...MBE does all this.

I need to be heard. You don't have to understand my motivations/reasons/etc, but HEAR me tell you what I need from you.
