It is something anyone can do for a friend, family member, or spouse. The article author seemed to focus on the "I got this" as "taking care of" the other. He was cautious about how today's women would react. This perception seems to be a bit old-fashioned. Showing compassion for another is a visible expression for those who seek a personal deepening. The author spoke about the phrase as the three sexiest words. I am not interested in sexy words. When we can get past what is culturally sexy in our romantic relationships, I believe we enter another dimension of caring.michele@Portlandia Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01619326821893086315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-22445896575936634582014-11-16T07:43:34.518-05:002014-11-16T07:43:34.518-05:00Pamela this article means so much to me.

I will pull along my own over-stuffed suitcase, bat away a well-meaning hand in the kitchen...it is too embarrassing to go on! And I will step into it further by saying for me...just me we are talking about...I know that I have lost a lot of my femininity because of that. There were just so many years of having to be tough, take care of everything...especially living in NYC that part of that hardened shell has stayed with me. And it can be challenging for my couple too. I live with a Frenchman, not as gallant as say a Maurice Chevalier but it is also such a part of his culture to let "the guy be the guy" sometimes. I don't always do that...thank you for giving me something to think about and have a great weekend, Pamela.
