[quote=Anonymous]I thought I would be single forever - and was okay with it. I'm pretty easy going but hadn't found anyone that fit. I also experienced severe childhood DV and while I had worked through it in counseling, was still shy of real, long term intimacy and vulnerability. My now-DH is the complete opposite of my father. One of the things that I found really attractive was how he was open and comfortable with his feelings. He exuded a warmth that made me feel safe emotionally. He found me interesting and wasn't intimidated by my intellect. We had many similar interests and I admired (still do) his curiosity and interest in doing new things. That's not to say we haven't had issues (sometimes serious) in our 25 year marriage. We have. But they were never about abuse or who we were as people. I've never needed DH for material things, I needed emotional availability and respect. [/quote]
