Opportunity (freedom from being stifled creatively, educationally).
Trust (emotionally and financially).
Honesty (emotionally and financially).
Engaging/Interesting (no boredom allowed).
Just a few to start, more may come to me later.
Great stuff!
I also have to explicitly add that I would want a man that isn't obsessed with gender roles. Don't expect me to come home from work and do all the cooking and cleaning by myself. You can do the laundry while I mow the yard. We don't have to delegate responsibilities based on gender.
The perfect marriage is one between a straight forward, practical, funny, caring, goofy sound engineer and a quirky, imaginative, silly, sensitive musical theatre performer. Must have cute shih tzu and adorable baby boy. The end.
What would the perfect marriage be like according to you? Don't be afraid to ramble on.
The couple is mutually loving, respectful, protective, supportive of each other. Mistakes are honestly and courageously confessed and they are graciously forgiven. He's the person you want to experience hot sweaty passion with, and he's also the person you want to sit and watch some lame tv show or movie with, just cuddled up on the sofa with a simple meal and some nice music. You can talk for hours with him and yet you both enjoy companionable silence in each other's presence. In other words, a true FRIEND.
Ideal marriage:
1. Each has self-esteem, so we're not looking for the other to meet that need. Each has self-awareness, so each has something to bring to the relationship, especially trust. We'd give each other space when needed.
2. We could experience the extremes together (not limited)...
-We could talk for hours or be ok in each others' silence.
-We could cry with each other & laugh until the point of tears.
-We could be passionately sexy & other times clean & modest.
-We could be very mature & very childish & still like each other.
3. We'd be REAL - not perfect, but human - accept each others' imperfections without denying them. We appreciate each others' strengths.
4. We'd travel well together - (flexible & cooperative but assertive) - & travel regularly.
5. We'd share some (but not all) common passions & goals - dancing, sports, caring for others as ourselves.
Ok... now I realize how much work I have to do on myself!
there is no such thing as a perfect marriage........ every marriage has flaws.
