I just want someone to tell me about their day.

Do people not do this anymore? Where has all the romance gone?

I want you to tell me about the apocalyptic morning you've had at work and how incompetent your boss and coworkers are, while I tell you that you're strong and beautiful and intelligent and that things will get better.

I want to hear the same jokes you make every morning about how you can't function without coffee or this month's flavor of tea.

I want to cheer you on when you start a new passion project or celebrate after you nailed that presentation.

I want to listen to the guilty pleasure songs you play on repeat to get you through the tough days, as well as the upbeat soundtracks you blare when your day couldn't possibly get any better.

I want to share a palette and a canvas while we sip on wine neither of us can pronounce.

I want to know your thoughts while we lay watching the stars.

I want to know the depths of what terrifies you, and what widens your eyes in wonder.

I want you to tell me your favorite foods so I can secretly fill up the garbage with my failed attempts, only to surprise you with a masterfully made dish when you get home from one of those long days.

I want someone who complains that I have too many plants but will still water them when I forget.

I want someone who can humor the fact that I have short bursts of passion and buys too many things that I don't need.

I want someone that can laugh at the fact that I condemn modern capitalism but still pay for expedited shipping.

I want to wrap our bodies around each other under warm blankets while cool jazz plays softly in the background of a Friday night.

I want someone who will let me bury my head in their arms after I've had a rough day and make sure that I'm OK, because despite being a generally wonderful experience, life can still bring us all down sometimes, and it's OK to be vulnerable.

These days it seems like everyone in the Kink lifestyle skips right to the end, not many people are putting in the time or effort to build the trust and compassion that makes these relationships worth having, but I want to go through the journey more than I want to reach the destination.

I posted this about 2 weeks ago, I am still looking. Sharing nature photos and selfies is definitely a part of my style and I am looking for a partner that is willing to do the same. I would love to have phone calls as well.
