All I Really Want Is A Lover Who Is Also My Best Friend

True intimacy is defined by having someone with whom you can share your most personal and profound feelings and feel safe and secure in doing so.

While sharing my physical self with someone carries significant intimacy and value, my true aspiration is to have that person be more than just a lover; I want them to also be my closest friend.

These days, locating a romantic partner isn’t particularly challenging. It’s fairly simple to meet someone interested in a brief encounter and then vanish from your life after. That is the unfortunate truth of our times.

Yet, the real difficulty lies in discovering that one person willing to remain and navigate life with you through all its challenges and victories.

It’s easy to share a bed with someone or have a casual relationship. Many individuals are looking for a chance to enjoy a night of fun and ecstasy without any attachments or emotions complicating things.

However, I desire something deeper. I seek a partner who comprehends the intricacies of my body and takes the time to cherish me, recognizing that we have all our tomorrows ahead of us. I long for a connection that transcends the physical.

I want someone who understands my thought processes. A man who finds my intellectual abilities just as appealing as my physical traits. I yearn to share my very essence with him, wanting him to be both my passionate partner and my oldest friend.

I aspire to find someone who will stand by me when I’m sorrowful on the kitchen floor, feeling utterly lost and misunderstood. I want him to dry my tears and assure me that everything will be alright because he’s always by my side.

I want him to roll over and kiss me deeply the moment he rises, awakening me in the most delightful way imaginable.

I hope he’ll make light of how wild my hair is in the mornings, teasing it playfully before bestowing a gentle forehead kiss and then heading off to work.

I want a partner who inquires about my work schedule so he can surprise me by picking me up, planning an entire evening just for us.

I wish to enjoy football games by his side, sipping beer and laughing until I’m nearly in tears because he knows just how to make me chuckle.

I desire to journey together, exploring as much of the world as we can. I want our relationship to be one where we cherish being in each other’s presence, understanding one another on a profound level that others cannot quite grasp.

I want him to treat me as one of his best mates, someone with whom he can enjoy local outings, have endless laughter, challenge each other at darts, and share long, passionate kisses driven by his irresistible attraction to me.

I crave a friendship-infused relationship where we can discuss anything without hesitation, and yet still find comfort in simply curling up together for an entire weekend, wrapped in each other’s arms, binge-watching our favorite shows, and feeling blissfully satisfied.

I want him to send me quirky texts throughout the day that leave me laughing out loud at work and fill my heart with joy at the thought of returning home to him.

I want him to miss me immensely during my work trips, to hold onto me tightly the moment I’m back, eager to hear every detail, and then spend a wonderful night in bed until dawn breaks.

I desire the whole package. I want to share laughter with him, indulge in silliness, and have him understand me without needing words.

I want him to be my everything—my lover and best friend—the one with whom I can share my entire existence.
