Rap, you're stealing my thunder!

Hard learned, tried and true. Women want to be loved. They want every aspect of their world to be secured in and by the love of an honest man (assuming they are honest women). Some men view sex as a separate act or a "part" of the picture. Women view sex as an integrated part of the total experience. It is life and sometimes the bringer of life. Of course this is all ideal but it is what you aim for.

And when women go a little crazy and bang off the walls you give them latitude to do so. When it's personal, don't take it personally. When things cool down it will be better than ever.

An amazing thing is to watch hot passion and romantic love convert into family love. Things change and love grows. It becomes a bulwark for all of life's storms. It embraces children and your children's children. And the really beautiful thing is that the original passion is still there, banked against all the humdrum or panic and the least little breeze of romance can fan it to life.
