and I ask the gals to be silent, at least until there are a goodly number of responses from the guys first so they are not inhibited:
This is prompted by one of those on line relationship articles. This one asked guys (Though I have my doubts as it sounds to me like it was all written by a gal, but whatever.) what non-sexual things their SO does that really turns them on, relationship-wise.
Most of them sounded bogus to me. One in particular was cringe worthy: "I like how she asks the waiter in restaurants exactly how a recipe is prepared so she can go home and make it herself." (WTF?)
Another was spew worthy: "I like to watch her put on her make up."
And how about: "I love how she just breaks out into song at any moment of the day." (Not at my house!)
There were a couple that I liked: "She hates to shop saying most stuff people buy is never used and wasted." (I want to meet that gal!)
So, here's the deal; forget the top 13, how about naming the three things you like best about a provider, other than hobby related stuff?
This is for guys who have long term sessions, or OTC time, etc. This stuff seldom comes up in the one hour or even two hours sessions.
Here's mine (in no particular order of importance):
1. They laugh at my (awful) jokes.
2. They order at a restaurant without undue delay, and eat what they ordered without complaining that they ordered the wrong thing.
(I swear to God, I had one gal where I always ordered something for her that I liked and something for me that she would like because invariably, she would complain about what she got and insist on trading her dish for mine!)
3. They are good listeners and I'm never at a loss for scintiating conversation with them.
There are others, but this is getting long.
And, finally, here's the dubious article that inspired this rant:
