sitting here at the round table

so, today is the day that a group of my friends and i are having one of our "round table discussions." (and yes we are actually sitting at a round table) lol. but in all seriousness, we have these discussions twice a week and the topic of choice is always changing, but today one of the guys was trippin off this girl he's been talkin' too lately, about how she complained about all the guys that did her wrong and how she'd been waiting for a good man to come along and treat her right.

so with that... we ladies here at the round table began to inform them of what a good man is and exactly what we want from him. however the guy's think we're asking for too much so i'm gonna pause for a minute, state my claim to them and state it here

..............................................................................pause..................................................................................

okay... now i'll admit it i did just tell them what i was expecting may be a bit much at this point in my life but um, i know what i want, it's just a matter of finding it.

a good man in the opinions of the ladies and i here at the round table is respectable, honest, accepting of who i am as a person, understanding, caring, open about how he feels, funny, smart, true to himself, and willing. i want someone who i'll be able to have good conversation with, serious and pointless. random conversation, conversation in which the stress seems to be released. someone who'll ask how my day was, and actually listen... someone who'l let me in without reluctance when they need someone to be there for them. is that so much to ask? it's not like we're asking for the house on the hill, the yacht, the bentley, and the biggest diamond in the jewlery store. in fact, none of that materialistic stuff matters. what's the point of having a huge house if the people who live in it dont want to be a family.

hmmm maybe there's a reason as to why people end up with the people they "think" they want. because when it comes to relationships, who really knows what they want? i wonder if i'm sure in what i want? but thats another blog huh? guess i'm on to the next.
