The Things we Like About the Opposite Gender

[bèlla]

I've longed enjoyed the company of creative gentlemen. Whether his medium is artistic or another iteration. It's delightful to hear him expound. Not only in respect to its inspiration and process. But the challenges he endured in its crafting. There's nothing more satisfying than bringing a vision to life through your hands.

That's nice. I've been an aspiring writer, and trying to self-teach myself to draw/paint, and I"m planning on guitar after that. It seems, "creative types" kind of get "lumped in" with 'sensitive"-- meaning feminine-- meaning gay. It's nice to know that perception isn't always the case.

Drawing is cool. I don't consider the ability to draw or paint a feminine or masculine trait. I think typically you see a difference in the styles of art that men and women produce.

Guitar is definitely not something I would associate with sensitive/ effeminate men unless they give themselves to playing ridiculously cheesy songs haha.

Haha. That is such an adorable photo. I have a soft spot for otters I love his tiny guitar. Maybe if you played the song and he accompanied you, you would attract lots of women

Women look a lot better than men do.
I like a good giggle from a woman too, the way it sounds.
They're more nurturing to little children.
They know how to bring psychological comfort.
They can multitask better.
Good female singers literally sound beautiful, as in they encapsulate the term.

God gifts everyone differently. It needn't be either or. Nor does a proficiency with creative pursuits suggest an absence of masculinity or disinterest in the opposite sex. It matters not what others think or if wagging tongues are ignited by our talents.

What matters most is the utilization of every morsel the Lord bestowed. Leave nothing undone. Untouched. Unmastered if possible. Drink deeply from your cistern without apology and enjoy it all.

I’ve been very poorly trying to learn guitar.

Oh, heck no. I don't know anyone who feels this way, and those that do? I wouldn't bother with them! I've always run in creative circles; men and women alike! I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I self-taught myself to sketch characters and faces a few years ago. It was not easy to do, lol. But through sheer force of will (or stubbornness lol) I succeeded. Without the aid of the internet and online tutorials and lessons, I'd never have gotten far. Absolutely take advantage of that if you're still working on it.

*note to self, look into the legalities of acquiring and owning a pet otter....*

- when he helps you in the car and then flexes his fingers after letting go because he’s reeling from holding your hand
- when he swears to raise your daughter up safely and in faith and pay your debts when you die
- when he writes you a letter everyday for a year
- when he calls you on Christmas Eve from the freighter and tells you he always loved you and you’re his constant
- when he becomes your Angel of music

Hmmm… there’s a chance I’m into fictional dudes…

Don't think I missed the Desmond from Lost reference

Despite wanting to date, have a girlfriend, fall in love, & get married, I find this question challenging. I can't really define it, but I like how they are men's complements. Men are wired a certain way & so are they & I find that so beautiful

Sarah's Knight would definitely do those two things.

.... I'm also fictional.

When she responds to your sarcasm with more sarcasm instead of getting offended.

This is a rare trait to be found in men, but when it's there, it's invaluable.

When I'm upset and working myself into an emotional lather over something, and he responds with calm, gentle, practical encouragement that puts it all in perspective, and brings me back into reality... My best friend, who is a guy, is so good at this with me, and it makes me love him all the more.

I’m glad I’m capable of this. At work whenever we have medical emergencies I’ve been praised for being that person too, so it’s really nice knowing in those times I can be the calm face people look to before carrying on treatment.
