You are a gift. Your willingness to hear me when I speak, to understand my pov and honor my strength is why I call you my friend. You do not talk down to me and flaunt your 'superior' "knowledge" and even if you did, I am gentle in my response, reaction seeing and honoring you for the beautiful masculine strength you are... (mutual respect)
You as well are special. I have met few men that are able to put genuine care before sex. maybe it's my own perception--- we see what we believe--- but you have consistently honored my wishes, respecting my needs even when I felt threatened that that was not the case~ you have quieted my fears and at the same time gave me confidence in my ability to be heard---
and for that I have felt like an equal gift to you, worth just as much as you~~ a friendship like this is beautiful and when we met I was just sure this was not a possibility~~ you have proved me wrong and for that I thank you!!!
I cherish this friendship TC.
I will write for miles telling you the gift you are to me. I'm learning so much about respect it's not funny. Respect for my strengths & weakness and yours as well. You are a man I admire. I think this is the only way to form true depth of friendship~~ it's all about respect. for others AND yourself.
thank you for hearing me. thank you for respect. thank you for your lack of assumption. I am strong and you allow me to realize it. thank you TC for being who you are to me.
It takes much strength to respect and trust~ I appreciate your presence in my life.
