I don't think you're all that different from other women. In fact I don't think men and women are all that different. If you pay attention to form rather than content, the messages are very much the same: "I want my spouse to be interested in me in the way that makes me feel like they care about me and in the way where I feel a real connection."

Developing a wide variety of ways in which one can feel connected to one's spouse has been feeling very healthy for our relationship. Helps prevent that old problem of all eggs being in one basket, whatever the basket may be.
