Cauliflower ear...

I have been on the phone nonstop, to a man that I've never met in person. (This would explain why I haven't been blogging). First of all, he lives in South Dakota which is one on the reasons I haven't met with his touch yet. The other reason is the he is now in Louisiana. He's running from me as fast as he can....hahaha! Actually... No.

When you go in search of a very caring man, you have to know that he will do everything that he can to help those in need. I do know this and so I wasn't surprised when he told me that he had offered to help with catastrophes in the United States. He kept me informed as they called every step of the way. Making sure I was okay with him going. He made sure that it wasn't a surprised when he got the call that he would be going. However, he was surprised at what I told him. I said that I wasn't going anywhere and I will be here waiting when he gets done. In his past the other woman would have said that if he left, she wouldn't be there when he got back. I don't understand the person that feels the need to try to control other people like that.

Building a relationship takes time but when you have a "phone-ship" relationship first you learn more about each other than you normally would with conventional ways of dating someone. All you have is your words about the past and what you want for the future and how it all makes you feel. For many of the guys that I started talking with, they felt horny and couldn't move beyond that. To that I say,"Bye-bye and next". Don't get me wrong, sex is important but I need to know that a man has a brain as well and can talk with some form of intelligence. Also, he needs to have a zest for life. Couch potatoes need not apply. The fact that he is in Louisiana makes me believe that I maybe on the right track with this one. I hope so...

By golly, you may be onto something.

I agree with you here. Not having the person within reach forces you to get to know him on more than a physical level. Then... of course, when you do hook up in person..... hmmmmmmmmmm..... WOW!!!!
This is looking good. Intelligence is the biggest turn-on.

buf: Cell service is on and off. When he calls it is still very special but short. He does make sure I'm doing okay with it.

shandi: He touches me on a emotional level. He has talked through steps of touching me and I can feel it. Because we have felt each other in our minds I think that it will be different from the others when I'm actually with him. Hmm..wow..

Hope it all works out. When I first met Tess, she was teaching in Jakarta. So distance really doesn't matter.
