So....about the girl I had been talking with online. Great gal, but I just don't think she's ready for someone like me yet "and" she lives way too far away. I need someone who is really assertive, knows fully well what a two-way street is, has no trouble expressing her feelings and being forward in all ways, as well as being in proximity so that we can hang out and enjoy one another's company. Although really sweet and we did have tons in common, even if the distance thing wouldn't have been a problem, there's some definite things she needed to work on to be ready for someone like me. First and foremost, people need to know that I hate to be teased. If I'm expressing myself and she's enjoying it, in whatever fashion that may be, whether verbally or physically, she needs to reciprocate. If she doesn't do that, my interest wanes considerably. Not only is that a way to assure the other person that what they're feeling or doing is something they appreciate, but their giving nature should make them want to appease the person who is giving them that gesture by returning the favor. If they don't do that, it's not a two-way street but one that is only one way.
I've had way too many relationships in my lifetime where I was the one who always made most of the effort, and now I am ready for something equal. Therefore, if I'm not on the same page with someone, I'm going to move on. It's as simple as that.
