i understand the desire for romance, respect, cuddling, hand holding, long walks together, fun, humor, gentleman courtesy, communication, loyalty, and HONESTY...most all want those things, men and women both...but, then i started thinking, whats missing?, and is not said enough by both men and women...and as i thought, i found myself being bluntly honest...in addition to the things i have mentioned that we all want, we also want the following...to feel that PASSION that we felt in high school...to wish that we could go back knowing what we know now....to LIVE, LAUGH, and LOVE when it was simple, fresh, easy, without the scars we have endured in life that jades us and causes us to fear the potential pain.....i want someone who's eyes sparkle when they meet mine, a smile that invites me closer, a heart that flutters when i kiss her lips, and knees that buckle when i kiss her neck, who will let me undress her completely and stand ready before me, who moans softly as i massage her entire body, who's nipples become hard as i roll my tongue over them and close my lips around them, who becomes wet as she senses and anticipates my desires, and who's legs fall helplessly open as i move down between them, who thrusts her body up to meet mine as i move inside her or rocks back and forth as she looks lustfully and lovingly down at me, who whimpers and cries as she approaches orgasm, and groans and screams as she explodes in ecstasy, who at my slightest suggestion is ready to do it joyfully all over again and again, who will tremble and quiver as i wrap securely my protective arms around her as we tease and laugh into the night and talk of future dreams and fall asleep, and who will greet me the next morning with that same sparkle and smile to assure me unconditionally that she will never leave my side, who will always be creative, playful, and adventurous to keep my attention, never allowing it to stray...i express this from a romantic point of view rather than purely sexual....sex is important, but not all there is to a relationship..it must have PEACE...HAPPINESS...LAUGHTER...HONEST OPEN COMMUNICATION ....AND LOVE...finally i want to say...there are many kinds of relationships and we can never have enough true friends in our lives...we may end up being friends or have a business relationship ....as to a romantic relationship, i am very picky as to what i like and want. and although it is not a hard fast rule, i generally like younger women and those who have a dress size in single digits....but obviously there are other things just as important.....your thoughts?
