Being a Parent Doesn't Make You a Damn Hero
10 Signs She’s Not Girlfriend Material
5 Reasons She Won’t Give You Her Number
About Ego, Being Shy, And The Inner Judge
I’ve found someone I want to and I can imagine spending the rest of my life with. But he’s the sweet, sensitive, nice guy. The one who cares about my opinions of something, asks me how I’m feeling, want to hear my ideas, or if I have any, curious about me, my inner thoughts, treats me like an equal and willing to stand by my side at any time. That’s called a partner for life. At least for me. I don’t want anyone to make decisions for me. I run my own life, but I don’t mind sharing it with someone who respects me.
Of course, surprises like if he suddenly says “Tomorrow, I’m gonna take you somewhere nice. I’m not telling you where, you just have to trust me!” -THOSE are the things that really mean a lot to me. But he always asks me if I have any plans for that day, first, which is also important for me.
I used to date a guy who didn’t care about whether I had my own plans or not. I had to follow by his rules all the time, and I wasn’t allowed to plan anything at all. I really hated him.
So for me, there’s a fine line between taking charge and respecting what SHE has in mind. Guys should have some self-esteem, by all means, but there’s nothing more I hate than a guy who think he can boss over me, my life, my decisions and my plans.
