What do you want??

[dreamer]

A recent post got me thinking about want vs. need. So I'll pose this question.

What do you want? What are your dreams/desires/goals/whatever?

I guess I'll start.

->I want a job that challenges me and I can get excited about.

->I want a new monitor.

->But most of all, with all my heart, I want someone to share life with. I want to experience life and all it has to offer with someone who can challenge me, someone who can appreciate the beauty of life, someone who can put her back against mine when things get tough.
I want someone to lean on and someone to support. I want someone to kiss goodnight, hold and comfort in sleep, and share the morning sun with. I want to share Simpsons re-runs and a trip to the Parthenon, snowfalls and the 'dry heat' of Las Vegas.
I want to share my body and learn hers. I want to know my days aren't being wasted alone. I want to be a daddy, a husband, a lover. I want to go camping in Yellowstone and hear the wolves. I want to stay in extravagent hotels and order room service. I want to talk about everything, yet enjoy and soak up those moments when nothing needs to be said. I want to give my heart away and keep and protect hers.

Does this person exist? I don't know. But I have to wonder are the actions I take everyday helping or hindering my search? Can we EVER know the answer to that? Or is it just all luck, chance and coincidence?

Oh and some ReeseSticks would be nice right now too...

I want to finally be able to grow a full beard. If only this small patch on the side of my jaw would fill in . . .

 

[peachykeen]

I want to travel more, I want to go back to school, I want to have a baby, I want to write a really good book. I will do all of these things, just not sure in what order. Mostly right now I want to wrap my arms around my husband and kiss him for hours, but unfortunately it will be 18 more days until I have the opportunity.

 

[Dillinger]

I want to be able to eat ice cream and not gain weight.

 

[deliciously_naughty]

I want a laptop, all the books I need for the semester, new glasses and contacts, a full bank account.

I really want someone to spend time with...a true love/friend who can cuddle and kiss with the same enthusiasm. Who understands that sometimes I'm just cranky and want to be alone. Who won't mock my nora roberts fandom....and who will love me just as I am.

Nicely said. Yes, I think she exists out there somewhere. Keep looking, and for Gods sakes, don't give up!!

 

[SkyBluAngelEyes]

I want to win the lottery

I want to be done with school

I want to travel abroad, to Scotland and Ireland and drink a pint in a cool irish pub

I want to fall in love. I want this one the most.

Right now, right this minute, I'd settle for a slice of pizza.

 

[SXCRgirl]

Amen dreamer. Except I want the man version of what you just said.

 

[Freya]

I want a job...but one that will make me use my brain, make me think...I hate boredom.

I want a new computer
I want to have at least some money in my bank account before the long weekend
I want to be out of debt
I want my daughter to finish the last few years of teenagehood unpregnated and relatively sober - basically I want her to not be like me
I want a man - one who will talk to me, challenge me, make love fiercely to me at night, in the morning and at all points in between, one who will hold me when I need it, but won't smother me, one who will share all of himself with me, and not cringe and run like a girl when I do the same, one who has a sense of humour and a brain, one who is not afraid to try new things, one who will love me for who I am and not try and change me, one who is comfortable in himself , strong willed but not overpowering,
I want good sex regularly until I find that man

and right now I'd really like an ice cream cone.

I'm not giving up!! It's just kinda out of my hands at the moment. But that doesn't stop me from wanting those things.

Freya2? I sure know that 'running like a girl' syndrome...then again they WERE all girls...hehehe.

 

[Persephone36]

I want to accept myself -- just for who I am. Love myself without standards and conditions rolling around in my head all the time.

I'd like to know myself better.

I'd like to be able to challenge myself without beating up on myself.

I think those things are all attainable.

P.

Mine are guys, and they still run like girls!

 

[Braden]

A list of things I want...


I want to be 21...
I want to lose weight...
I want this year to be over...
I want to already be moved out and going to OU...
I want to live closer to the people I can relate to...


I want some female companionship. Not just someone to have sex with, although that would be nice. I want someone who I can share everything with and who will in turn do the same with me. I want someone to hold and to be held...

I want a job that's not flipping burgers...
I want my grandpa to live forever because I know the day's coming when he won't be here any longer and I'm not ready for that day to come...

 

[shanier]

I want to not be prone to such wild mood swings.

I want to be less selfish.

I want to believe in God again.

I want my new job to work out well, and help me stay in this city that I love so much.

I want to pay my roommate back.

I want to own every CD ever made, and every book.

 

[TallOne]

I want to be a kid again and run around playing Star Wars all day with no bills to worry about

 

[Aphrodisiac]

I want to ...

* graduate from college.
* get a good job in my field.
* help my mom out, just pay her back for all those times she has been there for me.. when I needed some money.
* get physcially fit ...need more energy.
* keeping on loving the man that is in my life at the moment. Embrace him and enjoy my time with him...
* travel with my friends, go out and have fun in tropical far off places.
*accomplish my goals and dreams.

 

[truegentleman]

1) To find that special lady that is out here.

2) To find a job that I enjoy. It's not about the money it is all about feeling good about yourself.

3) To find some inner peace.

YES!!! I so miss the days of playing Dukes of Hazzard or Star Wars....

 

[shyybabe]

I want to get through the next three weeks of court battles with my sanity reasonably intact. I need the divorce signed so I can get on with my life. Twelve years is long enough to wait for a signature dammit.

I want to be able to keep my son safe and healthy. He is trying so hard to be strong through all this.

I need to keep the promise I made to my mom and move on with my life. I'm losing patience with the baby steps each day. I want to run, wide open and free.

I want more time to write. I have to resign myself that it will take second place until this is finished, and I won't be able to finish the story I started for the Sapph Festival this year.

I need to sleep. I want these demons to quit chasing me every night. I want a toe curling wet dream for a change.

And lastly I want and need a maid to come and clean this house. The current one is doing a lousy job and should be fired.

I apologize if that came out wrong.
I didn't mean it to sound like had you've given up. Just DON'T give up. I've known men who gave up because they feel "she" wasn't out there.

 

[CarolineOh]

I want to be married, but I don't want to GET married. This is seriously messing up my head.

 

[Ice Cold]

I just want and need a good weeks worth of sleep.

 

[Freya]

See now, I always wanted to get married, it was the being married part I had difficulty imagining.

Wedding, party, honeymoon, divorce!

Elope. Hehe, I recognize most women NEED the wedding but I can really understand where you're coming from. Getting married, not a big deal...being married...THAT sounds great.
