ORIGINAL: seekingreality Most of them actually want to know how I think and feel about things. If you have the same core values and their path is appealing.. don't they already know what you think? I mean, you wouldn't be following them otherwise, right? quote:
And if they don't want to know or don't care how I feel and think, it's a bad, bad sign, and we won't last long. But you wouldn't be on a path with someone like that would you? That's exactly why I want to know 'their' ABC's.. to make sure they match 'my' ABC's. If they are XYZ.. what I think won't matter because that's not the path I'm following anyway. By interacting do you mean arguing? I'm really not getting it. I will get it, eventually, but folks here can tell you I'm a little slow and it takes a minute. By way of explanation, I was in a relationship for 18 of the last 20 years (and in mourning for the last 20 months) .. and My Way or the Highway was pretty standard for both Michael and I when our steps brought our separate journey's into the same place .. so to see this more egalitarian approach is something new for me now that I'm being exposed (so to speak!) to so many different personalities on the other side it is much different than I was just fresh outta the box. Honestly, Daddy's existed but it meant something completely different so.. it's a new world and I'm an old lady. I'll probably come around and .. I dunno, buy a new whip or something. I may not be a dominant, but I do have the tiny little sadist thing that I'm still, maybe, overly fond of and it's been wanting to come out more and more lately. ::grins::
