  1. Cooking/baking for another. I love to please through my cooking.
  2. Sunday night decompress - reading in bed together.
  3. Absentmindedly putting my hand on his back whenever we're within touching distance.
  4. Hugs and kisses.
  5. "Honey, I'm home!"
  6. Grocery shopping together.
  7. Laughing hysterically together.
  8. Crying on his shoulder when I watch a tear-jerker.
  9. Showers.
  10. Receiving a spontaneous, warm kiss on my forehead.
  11. Holding hands.

I'll leave out the obvious salacious bits.

Ok, I'll be good.

All of yours plus:

12. being held at night.   I love to spoon and be spooned
13. running their fingers though my hair...makes me melt!
14. someone taking care of me after a race when I'm exhausted, ice, rub down, etc.

I guess we just have each other Renne and Runnergirl. We can be those ladies who take turns cooking dinner for each other once a week...tri-ing together, and watching movies. The line will have to be drawn somewhere between cuddling and spooning though.

He said he's too busy for us.

More things I miss:

-calling someone to complain, celebrate or relive the highlights of my day

-someone to tell me "you dont need to eat that"
-someone to eat stuff that I shouldn't with (ice cream, mexican food,etc)

-and of course the unmentionables

Ok I'll contribute, I'm married and most of those things happen at some point in the day/week.  It took me to the age of 29 to find the right one.  And been together for over 17 years...and counting.  So I'm working very hard to make sure I never have to miss them.

Wow, I think I succesfully supressed missing those things and seeing all that stuff listed out like that makes me kind of sad. But it puts a smile on my face at the same time as it's something to look forward to again. Where are women like you when I'm on a date, there are some very odd people out there.
Thanks for the posts. They were great to read!

You're right- if you think about it as "something to look forward to" it's reassuring, not to mentions gives you warm fuzzies

OK, I will give you one....this is going to kill my rep, so keep it on the down low!  Shhhh.......

I miss being at home and having the significant other (or girl of the moment) walk in after a long day of work and being able to open a bottle of wine for her, pour her a glass, as she sits at the table while I finish cooking the dinner and ask her about her day as we both drink and chat together.  Then after dinner, we lay on the couch together and watch a movie!

Ok, I am now going to another thread....I think I left my "man card" over there somewhere!

Subject: RE: Things I miss about being in a relationship
wow, you ladies have some great lists.

It's definitely nice to have someone to come home to, to be able to confide in each other and to let down your guard to, to challenge each other, to travel together, to support each other through tough times and to celebrate the good times, to work out together, to feel like someone cares about you and to have someone to care about, having someone to hug and touch, not feeling like the odd man out in social situations where everyone else seems to be coupled up....

Love.
Silly inside jokes.
The obvious, salacious bits.
Going to breakfast on the weekend.
Stroking the nape of his neck while he drives.
Feeling protected.
