I was talking to this girl tonight, about various topics ranging from my ass to how good I smelled, and eventually she asked me what it was that I wanted. As in, what did I want in a relationship?
I became a little tongue-tied. Which was strange because I've certainly thought about this subject a lot. Probably more than is healthy.
But, despite all of my thinking, I couldn't really come up with a definitive answer. All I could think of were examples from several diferent relationships. An amalgam of sorts.

Driving late at night, with her and the kids else asleep in the car. She counted on me to get us to our destination safely. She trusted me.
---
We'd watch a movie, and she'd lie on the couch with her head in my lap. She'd invariably fall asleep, and I'd be unable to move for hours. I could never bring myself to wake her, she was so pretty and peaceful.
---
She'd be feeling sad, and she'd lean her head against my shoulder and sigh.
---
She'd come into the bar and look around for anyone she knew, and she'd see me and she'd smile.
---
She came to me crying, and she hugged me, and she kissed me, and we made love. We didn't say a word to each other for hours, because we didn't need to.
---
She'd call me or text me whenever she wanted someone to talk to. I was always there for her.
---
That way she'd blush every single time I gave her even the slightest compliment.
---
Sparkles.
---
I talked to her, and it was like we were the only people on Earth. I had her complete attention, just as she had mine.
---
She was tired. I didn't even know her. But she slept leaning against me on the plane.
---
We talked for what seemed like hours, and our faces were so close that our lips were almost touching. Eventually, our lips did touch.
---
I grabbed her hand, finally, and she squeezed my hand soooo hard.
---
I'd look at her in a certain way, and her nipples would harden.
---
She could never simply touch me. There always had to be something more. Little circles she'd make with her fingers - they'd drive me insane.
---
She simply understood me.
---
She forgave me.
---
She loved me.
---
I'd watch her sleep, and all of the stress in my life would wash away like it was never even there.
---
That's what I want. More stuff like that, please.
