Making a woman feel special – by my friend Betsy

My friend Betsy and I were talking today about what makes us feel special in a relationship. I shared that I like surprises and she said that was like “Swahili” to her. So I asked her what DOES make her feel special, and she shared this.

What makes me feel special? When a guy asks me out, and no one else. When he’s attentive, affectionate, happy to see me, clearly interested in me in a room full of other people. When I see the delight on his face when I walk in a room. When he shows me off to others by bringing me around people he cares about. When he makes a special effort to be with me when it’s not his only option. When we laugh our asses off together, and I can see his absolute delight & surprise at what came out of my mouth, and when he clearly says things for no reason other than he’s knows that I’ll be amused. When he tells me something for no other reason than that he wants me to know him and understand him better. When he’s so turned on by how much he turns me on. When we’re absolutely, clearly on each other’s side, and we feel that we’re meant to be together, and what we are together is so much greater than before we were together.

She’s married to a fantastic guy, so I’m so happy for her that she got all this!
