Wow, this thread is cracking me up.

My x-bf and I kind of had a backwards relationship. He was the emotional, always-on-the-edge drama queen. I was rather insecure myself, but, at least compared to him, I was the calm, cool and collected calm-down-honey-it's-all-going-to-be-ok person. Maybe that's one of the reasons our relationship never would have worked out (there were several other reasons as well). All that to say, stereotypes are not always accurate.

So, in response to the op, I have no idea how to make my bf happy or satisfied (at least not without crossing some lines), as I was never able to do so. But I can tell you all what would make me happy. Love is a given in any relationship, of course, but besides that, I look for leadership and faith. When a guy has those three things (love, leadership and faith, not in that order), I would be very happy in that relationship.

Note: I was actually happy for the whole two months I was dating my x-bf, though he possessed none of those qualities. But it was a giddy and juvenile happiness. I have since learned a lot about what I want from a relationship, as well as what I would need to give in one.
