A very nifty thread—kudos, adorable! Articulating one’s needs is really important—how can someone know that you need something if you don’t tell them?
Just a few from me (because, yes, I do have a list):
*laughter—lots of shared laughter
*surprise texts, voice mails, etc. throughout the day
*supportive of anything that makes me happy (like my career), even if it is dull to the other person—or translates to less “personal time” every-so-often
*not grumbling when I disagree or taking automatic offense (how else can a mature conversation be had when someone fears that s/he is going to be automatically besieged?!)
I'm a lucky grrl,
daisy
