It’s so simple
I crave intimacy
I want someone to hold my hand
To support me when I need it most
To fix the water heater when it’s broken down
To kiss me before bed
To kiss me when I wake
To cuddle up to after a bad dream
To make love to me in the front seat of my car
Or the shower, or the movie theater, or in my bed
Anywhere. Anytime.
I want someone who enjoys the same things as me
Someone who knows what I mean when I can’t make the words come out right
When I got married, I was too young to know any of these things
How I wanted my relationship to be
How I needed my husband to be
What intimacy was
Now that I know
I am lost in discovery…
Smitten with Him 
Right there with you. Though I’m not sad I missed these things younger. Part of me thinks it’s the maturity that brings some of this heady pleasure.
I absolutely agree with you. I think that life experience does make things better as we age. Time seems to pass faster and we learn that we need to appreciate things before they’re gone ❤
I just posted a photo of a grip lol. Beautiful words to go with a perfect photo
Thank you! ❤
Your picture was lovely as well 🙂

Oh thank you for that. Very much appreciate it
You wrote such a beautiful post. I was just wondering, do you think men’s lists would be different?
Thank you for saying that! 🙂
I think that some guy’s lists are different, but some are also very similar. Loverman’s list is similar to mine.
I didn’t have a list when I got married, unfortunately. I was just happy that some guy actually liked me. It takes “mistakes” or bad choices to show us what we really want and need.
Good point.
