Although I haven't seen the movie yet,Most of the time I feel like the "The Phantom" from "The Phantom of the Opera" without the girl!
Pushed aside and doomed to walk the earth alone! All I want Is someone to love, someone to open the door for, Someone to hold. someone I could talk over a problem with and get through with! Someone who would see it through until the end and not throw our relationship but work with me to make it better! It's usually easy to say It's over! But If You love and care about the person, it takes courage to keep it alive! I'm very incapable of hurting a child, because I love interacting with children too much!

I just want to be happy...want to find someone that when I see them or even just think of them, makes my heart do flip flops and my toes curl.

I want to be part of something really special. I dont need a woman, but I would like to have one, it just really sucks to curl up in bed alone at night every night. I do like to spoil a woman, just like I like to be spoiled. I want to be able to carry on a decent convo most of the time.

What do I want out of a relationship???


Why not ask what are you prepared to put into a relationship???

Trust, and shared stories, simple truths, respect...laughter.

An understanding by both of us we are different people, and are capable of meeting our own needs, but enjoy each other's company.

An acceptance of who we are, as we are.

Same as any relationship, be it with your neighbour, your parent, your child, or a lover.

Stop defining relationships with lovers as having to be any different than it would be with your family.

I think part of the reason for that is that platonic friends usually don't make demands from each other that they would feel compelled to lie about.

In romantic relationships couples often make huge demands on each other. I think that’s almost unavoidable in the long haul. People often say, that they’ll just let their partner be their self. But that seldom lasts beyond the honeymoon in reality.

Just try telling your spouse that you’re not interested in going to visit your in-laws. You’ll soon discover that when they said you can be yourself that isn’t what they really meant! What they meant is that you can be yourself as long as you do what’s expected of you. laugh

Although, I also don’t believe that what you say is true across the board. I know a lot of happily married romantic couples that don’t seem to have much reason to lie to each other. I’m fortunate to live in an area where there are quite a large number of happily couples who have been together for many years.

I live in a restore area though and people around this area are just happy in general. That may have something to do with it. It’s a small town and gossip does get around, so if there was anything happening it’s probably be in the grapevine. I think the people who gravitate to this college/resort town tend to be pretty respectable people. I’m lucky to live here.

I want a man who will take care of me yet at the same time allow me to spread my wings nad be myself. I want someone who is loving, caring, tender and yet strong and protective of our relationship. I want someone that I can care for and love and yet not be needy. i want a man who can make me happy and who desires me. I want someone who is honest and I can trust.

I know there are a lot of contradictions in what I'm looking for. That's what makes since relationship stuff so complicated.

I want someone who is happy to be with me, who enjoys my take on life, who has the time and energy to devote to me, who can go out on a week night without whining, and who doesn't care that I wear that hot little summer shirt out in public, because he knows, without a doubt, I'm with him.
cool
