Wow how did I miss this? lol

I deserve to be loved for the person I am.. ALL OF ME – The good, the bad and the ugly!

I deserve a good man who is not only in love with me. But will be just as much in love with my kids regardless of his relationship with me. (wait that was a moreso what my kids deserve..lol)

Ah, so true @Kat Wilder!

I’m a strong believer in the Law of Attraction: like attracts like.

I’ve known for a long while now that I can only hope to meet a man with all of these qualities… if I work on them in myself first.

Love what you say: “You also have to know what you’re willing to give to another person.”

I’m probably just repeating what others have said before, but if you’re looking for someone to “complete” you, you’ll never be happy.

It’s important to be clear on what’s important to you, and to pay attention to how people not only treat you but themselves and the world. And, you also have to know what you’re willing to give to another person.

Now, if he happens to have a nice body, too, well

@Travis: “Guy” was just a figure of speech. Of course I prefer a real MAN. LOL. And just to clarify, Rachel asked for what we “deserve.” I wrote more of what I “like,” but what I like is actually describing what I currently have.

It’s really interesting what turns people on and off!

@Legal Editor Mom – There is men (not guys, your asking for the wrong people to follow your list) who are just like that.

Funny thing about “hot”, I’ve never liked it and I was trying to tell someone I really liked that she a certain book, and I ran out of adjectives so I called it “hot”… and that’s when I learned why women hate that word so much.

And dang, yeah. For her it had a really degrading connotation (really degrading). And now, when I hear it I have to ask them to not say it anymore (cause it starts to tick me off)

A guy who calls me beautiful instead of hot, who calls me back when I hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to my heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch me sleep…the guy who kisses my forehead, who wants to show me off to the world when I’m in sweats, who holds my hand in front of his friends, who thinks I’m just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding me of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have me….The one who turns to his friends and says, ‘that’s her.’

Thanks for this post. It took me a really sad amount of time to come up with this. I’m so in the habit of scrambling for any little scrap a man throws my way. Lately I have been overwhelming and consistently disappointed by selfish men. The fact that I anticipate it may be attracting it. So I want is to turn it around, and ask for a man (or men) that surprises me with their thoughtfulness and desire to be there for me, and to bring happiness into my life.

[...] Over at Single Mom Seeking, Rachel created a list of things that she wants in a man, and as I thought about this, I decided to answer her list, with a list of how I would apply myself to each one of these items. You can follow along with her items here [...]

I will offer to carry your baggage, and you won’t tell me that “I can do it myself”

I look into your eyes, and you almost cry, because I’m not looking at you, I’m looking at the person in you.

I laugh, you laugh, and we make our stomachs hurt from laughing together.

To never let go of the hand. To offer to pick you up when you fall, and to walk hand-in-hand when we both have the strength.

The love of family. To be better because of, or in spite of your family. As long as they keep trying.

To cheer you on, even if you blush from it.

When I ask you to trust me… You believe it because you are asking questions, and that we both come to conclusion together, because the trust is so great, we know that all the questions will be answered (because trust is not about being blind, it’s about sharing in the questions). If you can’t share in the questions and answers, then their is no reason to trust. But at the same time, live transparently, so that you can see my foundation and we can trust each other completely without worrying about it, since we have lived so openingly. With honesty and integrity.

Love is simple, it’s people who make it complicated.
