Comments for Pebbles For Thoughts http://donna-thomas.com/blog Inspirational Thoughts On Living, Loving & Evolving Tue, 15 May 2012 07:21:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 Comment on Are You That Kind of Man? by Donna http://donna-thomas.com/blog/2012/05/11/are-you-that-kind-of-man/comment-page-1/#comment-848 Donna Tue, 15 May 2012 07:21:44 +0000 http://donna-thomas.com/blog/?p=1995#comment-848 Dear Anonymous, Thank you for your comment. YES we want you to be the river banks for the raging waters that we are. We want you to be the calm for our storm. And for it, we will share that passion without bounds. The strong men that I know understand this and love it. This post isn't about creating a one-sided relationship. It's about one-side of a two-sided relationship, to put it crudely. Love of a parent is selfless for a child. Not so as adults. We have needs and desires. That's part of the amazing opportunity and creativity in relationships...learning how to navigate through live together, with our differences. As far as where responsibility lays, the way I see it, is each person is 100% responsible for creating the life they want, and their experience. Perhaps you didn't see this post: Practice #5 Take Responsibility for Your Actions, Your Experience, and Your Future. http://donna-thomas.com/blog/2012/05/06/practice-5-take-responsibility-for-your-actions-your-experience-and-your-future/ This post is ultimately about taking responsibility for creating a deep relationship that works, from an empowered woman's perspective. Women who love and live fiercely. Sometimes we love quietly as you said. Sometimes we roar! All good to you, Donna Dear Anonymous,

Thank you for your comment.

This post isn’t about creating a one-sided relationship. It’s about one-side of a two-sided relationship, to put it crudely.

Love of a parent is selfless for a child. Not so as adults. We have needs and desires. That’s part of the amazing opportunity and creativity in relationships…learning how to navigate through live together, with our differences.

This post is ultimately about taking responsibility for creating a deep relationship that works, from an empowered woman’s perspective. Women who love and live fiercely. Sometimes we love quietly as you said. Sometimes we roar!

You want us to help you slow your minds down and be responsible for the idea that... "Most of us REALLY DO value your integrity, your valor, your strength, your commitment to excellence, your intelligence, your ability to generate and maintain an income, your encouragement, your passion, your humor, and of course to be honored by you. Think this is a tall order? We don’t!" What fascinates me is that it is all about YOU. Great that YOU become putty in the bedroom... but do we have to put up with your minds running uncontrolled. Where is the effort the women are making??? Why are we responsible for your sanity? Get over yourselves. There is nothing sexier than a confident, intelligent, non neurotic woman. She gets even sexier if she has a pregnant belly and is loving it. Don't get me wrong... I love the list of things to be as a guy... but seriously... if you are really going to go there... us guys have a list for YOU too. Personally I think it is all BS. Real love is about living for one another... and quiet selfless. It doesn't have a list. So let me get this straight… You want us to help you slow your minds down and be responsible for the idea that… “Most of us REALLY DO value your integrity, your valor, your strength, your commitment to excellence, your intelligence, your ability to generate and maintain an income, your encouragement, your passion, your humor, and of course to be honored by you.

And in answer to your second question, "Yes, you are absolutely right, that's VERY good!" With love and respect, Bruce Hey Donna,

No, that’s not a tall order, it’s a spot-on set of benchmarks against which all men can measure themselves.

And in answer to your second question, “Yes, you are absolutely right, that’s VERY good!”

With love and respect,

Bruce
