Dear Dream Reader...

So my assignment, which I'm late in completing, is to publish a post to my dream reader.I find this to be a daunting task, as I've never had a "dream reader" in mind. I have certainly had posts that were directed at one person or another, but never really gave much thought as to who my ideal reader would be. My blog is so varied, I don't think I could nail one down. It's a reflection of my life, which is up and down, topsy turvy, and fast-paced.However, as I thought more about it I suppose dating, and my search for "love" is a recurring theme in my blog.So, I suppose this post will be in that vein. To that young lady, who would dare take a chance on a guy like me. Allow me to offer a few clarifications on who I am, what I want, and what's going on in my mind.First and foremost, I am a romantic.  I love romance. flowers, candles, handholding, kissing, cuddling... I love all of that stuff. Let's stay in on a Friday night, cuddling under a huge blanket, watching a movie and sipping cocoa. Let me read to you, as you lie your head on my chest, and I play with your hair. Don't be shocked if you wake up some mornings and find me watching you sleep. I imagine you look peaceful, and serene, and occasionally I went to take that in, and appreciate that beautify and serenity as a perfect counterpoint that the world presents to us everyday.I want us to be teammates, and best friends, as well as lovers. I think a key part of that is honesty and communication. I  want to be able to tell you anything and everything, and you do the same. I find in so many relationships, both mine and others, there's so many secrets kept. Let's not have any. Share your thoughts, hopes, dreams, worries and frustrations with me, and I will try hard to do the same. You have a crush on a sexy new guy at work? That's cool. Come home and tell me all about it.  I'll do the same when I develop a crush on someone at work.  Then we can use that fire, excitement, and tension to make our relationship hotter, which brings me to my next point......I love sex... and you should too. I'm extremely comfortable in my sexuality, and yes, you should be too.  I'm extremely heterosexual, but I'm open to you exploring whatever it is that you feel you need to explore. I personally think that monogamy is an unnatural impulse at the least, and a time bomb waiting to happen at the most, but I have no problem being in a monogamous relationship, especially if it is for you.You aren't my first love. I have had several in my life before you came along, and I don't want to have to lie to you about that either. I'd love to share some of those stories with you. I'd love to hear yours too. I wanna tell you about the women who broke my heart, as well as the lessons they taught me. All of those stories will have brought me to you.I have tons of weaknesses. I have strange insecurities sometimes. I have quirks. I think life should be lived for joy, and passion, and not for money and security, so sometimes that brings a tumultuous nature to my life, and yes, sometimes I may need you to be a voice of reason and grounding, but sometimes I want you to push me...to live...to find my joy, and I want to share all of that with you.  I want us to push each other, to be better people, in all facets of life.Finally, you have to enter into this relationship knowing that I have a mistress, and her name is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.  She is beautiful and exciting, and she does many of the same things for me that you do. I'd love for us to all get together for a 3-way, but if you' re not interested, know that I will give you both equal time.And in a nutshell... that's me. That's us.And to end this aimless diatribe, let me share two songs that I'd like us to dance to together sometime.
