It’s Not Just the “Want”

It’s the “How”

I saw a quote somewhere (if I could remember where I would site it) and it goes something like this:

It’s not that you just “want” to be loved, it’s “how” you want to be loved

I really sat and thought about this one for while and it really rings true to me.

Everyone wants to be loved, even if you don’t consciously realize it. But have you thought about “how” you need and want to be loved?

Loud, full of conflict and passion.

Quiet, calm and safe.

Intellectually with logic and reason.

And so on.

The truth is there is no ‘right’ answer here, only what is right for you and your partner.

And, hopefully your ‘hows’ mesh well together to form a beautiful connection.
