    I was married to the wrong man for too long... my wish is to be a man's "everything", first of all his best friend, and everything else will fall into place... ;)

    "... my wish is to be a man's "everything""

    Being a man, I would advise against this. Smothering is no good. Be what he needs you for. But leave preparing his taxes to his accountant, and his fillings to his dentist.

    When I worked at a domestic violence treatment program, and volunteered at places for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assualt I was scared of men - probably for a few years.

    Since then my view of men has unfolded like a rose - with each year I realize that more and more men are good people, and see more and more relationships made by good people. Even though it's been over 10 years since I left that field of work I think I'm still a little scared. It's cool to think that maybe there's a good man out there for me :)

    The guessing, the wonder, is the spice of life. Life without spice is jello. That's it! Without men, life would be jello!

    I think the 'best friend' quality is key to a strong relationship, and then be eachother's 'everything'..... Once that doesn't exist or isn't there from the start, respect and trust and closeness is gone.

    Good for you for wanting more! We all want those things. I can't even imagine that feeling anymore.

    I think i'm confused. you said you wanted to be a mans "everything", therefore him being the smothered one...

    I agree with Dissident...smothering is no good what so ever...However...
    being each others best friends is extremely important. I was friends with my wife before
    we decided to date. Do we have our issues? Sure we do (Dissident knows more than anyone that we do)
    but we make it work.

    Be each others friend and the rest will fall into place.

    Being loved doesn't mean smothering... just a sweet caring man who has the same passions and interests as I do..

    I've had enough controlling and smothering...

    but again, you have to becareful what you wish for. Having the same needs and wants isn't always a good thing. Henceforth the cliche` "opposites attract"

    I hear ya! ;) Maybe I misspoke when I said be a man's everything, what I should have said is to be an important person in his life. I married really young, and friendship never really was part of our marriage. It was a more of a physical attraction. His mistress was alcohol, and will always be...

    I don't plan on marrying again, but I would like to be in a loving and caring relationship, and have a lot in common. That's not really asking for too much... :D

    Our 31 year relationship started with a very strong sexual attraction and just really enjoying time together. I believe that is the basis to a good lasting relationship and then people learn how to be a good partner. They learn what makes the other happiest and a friendship grows through trust and faith. Each individual must find the importance in life, not for everyone is that another human being. We were lucky to have found that we together was the most important thing in our lives and we have worked to keep it so.
