I wrote something a few years ago about my responses to the anti-butch among us and I told someone I’d try to find it for her. I have been looking through my old blogs to see if I could find it and so far, no luck. However, I did find this from a blog so old it’s on Diaryland:
Sometimes love isn’t romantic. Sometimes it’s about making the bed, washing the dishes, cleaning up kid puke and making wills. Sometimes it’s about “hard stuff” but in the end it’s all about the other person. And not about you at all.
The Femme Fairy Godmother is the alterego of a Michigan femme who loves to give (mostly unsolicited) advice to everyone regardless of sexual orientation. Also, the FFG has an overwhelming urge to mother everyone. And by mother I mean tell you how to live your life.

Dawg – well, except for you, of course. It’s definitely all about you.
PS Does Hottie know that?

I’m with Dawg. If it’s not about me, then what’s the point?
And I like the unromantic side of love just as much as the romantic side. I’m practical like that.

It’s not hard to find someone who can make it all about them. In the end, maybe it’s all about me because I have someone near me to help me transitition to the other side. Okay, love quiz. Who are the people that will go to any lengths to make you feel like you’re first? Who forgives you your falling down moments? Who accept you for wanting to be the best and not need you to be an underdog so that they can caretake you? Summation: Who loves you when you’re both at your best and at your worst? Send them a card today. You’re lucky if you have just one person in this world who feels this way.
