Romantic Relationship, II.
...continued... from part 1
Being romantic doesn't have to be expensive and it bothers me when most people think it must be the guy that should be romantic. Most ladies sit back and want all the attention to themselves forgetting that any natural human would go to where he is celebrated rather than where he is tolerated. We all have our breaking points.
In a romantic relationship, be careful not to be seen as someone who is only interested in the goodies and sharing the body. That is just a business transaction; you give your body, he buys you over with goodies. It would be a travesty for anyone to place a price on who you are.
Being in a romantic relationship involves 3 aspects:
1. Intimacy:
Which talks about the emotional component of your relationship. It is about being relaxed and being true to yourself around the person you claimed to love. It is about sharing innermost thoughts and feelings. Always allow people fall in love with your mind before they do with your body or better still (because men are visually motivated by what they see), allow them to fall in love more with your mind than your body. Intimacy is also about trust. You can't claim to be intimate with someone when you don't even have an iota of trust for them or trust in them.

Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

A relationship without intimacy is nothing but a waste of time. Couples have to be sincere and share feelings to each other to have a decent love life. You have a good point.
I am glad you see it this way too. This is really important and intimacy is not limited to just sharing of the body.
Thanks a lot for this.
Trust is one thing that can build or destroy a relationship. Trust matters most in any relationship whether it involves intimate or not.
Great point. Thanks dear.
Trust is a vital bedrock to cushion any relationship on. Thank you. 😊
If we cannot trust the other person and really be who we are, it is very difficult to last.
Very difficult to last or build such a relationship. So true, my dear.
