I Want To Feel Passion Again
I don't expect much on this day, nor have I ever asked for much. I don't need or want jewelry, expensive dinners, champagne, dozens or roses, or flower petals on the bed.
What I do expect is the slightest bit of thoughtfulness. A box of chocolate, a bouquet of flowers from the grocery store, or a card. It's the thought that matters to me, and the little bit of effort it takes to have some semblance of romance. After 13 years together, not feeling passion is expected, and an obstacle that you have to fight to overcome. But can't we pretend to be romantic for one day? Just one day? Can't I expect a little bouquet of flowers one day a year because he knows I love them?
Valentine's Day is for lovers, not spouses. I miss passion. So much.
