Quoting Lucasa:
My second blog post!
This is a more of question than anything else. But I am curious – do women (of any age) do find these attractive qualities in a man? I am married, and not looking for anything other than friendship or correspondence; but my wife has a great deal of difficulty in accepting these parts of me (parts she has she referred to as “unmanly”) - But this is who I am. I make no apologies for this – yet sometimes I think it would just be easier to not be the way I am, but to somehow change the essence of my being. Of course I have tried this in the past, and was miserable. No this is who I am, and again, my question are these attractive qualities? Would you (women) not be interested in knowing someone better like this, or would you simply not be interested in someone like this?
Here are my predominant character traits –a very basic list.
I tend to be:
• fiercely private – letting only those trust completely inside
•sensitive and have great empathy for others.
•a quite leader, choosing to lead by example
•great depth of personality - intricately and deeply woven, mysterious, and highly complex, sometimes puzzling even themselves
•introverted
•abstract in communicating
•live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities - part of an unusually rich inner life
•artistic (and natural affinity for art), creative, and easily inspired
•very independent
•I have an orderly view towards the world but within myself I am arranged in a chaotic, complex way only I understand.
And here is what drives me:
•I value personal integrity and "being true to yourself"
•Am on a lifelong search for a unique identity and meaning; very spirituality inclined.
•I can be hard to get to know, depending on the other person (reciprocity)
•I am sometimes seen by others as cold and hard on the outside, but I am warm and fuzzy on the inside to those who really know me.
•I sometimes find it easier to express my deepest feelings and sentiments in writing
•abhor evil or injustice, especially that directed towards the innocent or helpless
•am sometimes looked upon by others as naive, due to my idealism.
•enjoy thoughtful discussion but dislike arguing for argument's sake, as this often degenerates into ugly conflict
•I am a huge bookworms, love bookstores and libraries
•get stressed over extended periods without company
•rarely get into conflict, but when it erupts, can be very bitter
•love quotes/quotations and are often "philosophers" or "theologists" ;)
•need to confide in others and express opinions and feelings about others.
•are interested in ESP, paranormal, "new age," or psychic experiences
•often have "oceanic" memories where details are recalled through intuitive leaps and thought association
