CG gg This has been a very thoughtful topic, have nothing new to add, but I do know when i came out to my SO and found that she excepted me for who I really am, I did go overboard, shopping, dressing, and endless talking about me,me,me,me.
It caused a lot of tension after awhile, but after much talking I setlled down to a much calmer pace, and after years, of trail and error, have found a pretty good balance.
I probally don't tell her often enough, just how much she means to me, words come hard for me, but i do show it.
when we are out shopping, I always hold hands with her, like school kids, ask her for her opinon, and then listen. I am an early riser, so i fix her breakfast before she goes to work, meet her at the door when she gets home, with a kind word and a welcome home I am glad to see you, and a kiss.
For all of this I get a woman that has my best interst at heart, let's me be me, and buys me fun presents from time to time, (Jewery and clothes) and encorages me to dress as often as I want, even at times to show surprize and disappointment when she thought I would be dressed and am not. But I don't think that is a male or female traits neccesary. I ahve known women that just wanted to sit up on the couch and eat Bon Bons, have have a guy fawn over them with out giving anymore than that had too.
I think it is just the kind of person, you are!:2c:
