I'm new here, and after having my heart broken recently by a careless butch, I've been thinking about this quite a lot.
I need attention. Yes, I'm needy. Not psycho stalker needy, but I like it when you reply to my texts/emails, send me texts/emails throughout the day just to say hi (or to share a joke).
I like to be touched. Not full-on making out in public (though that's OK), but just hold my hand when we're out and about. Touch my shoulder when you walk by.
I need you to let me touch you. I can live with not touching you that way if you're stone, but let me hold you sometime. You can't always be the strong one.
I need open communication. I need honesty. I need respect and a willingness to remember that we love each other, even when we're angry with one another.
I need someone who is present and lives in the moment. Don't worry about what will happen tomorrow, or next week, or next year. Just focus on how we feel in that moment and let those feelings guide how we act toward one another.
That sounds like a lot, doesn't it? It may be why I'm still alone.
