Mad Dog! Mad Dog!!

Every once in a while a woman needs a man - not the man she is in a relationship with - to show some interest. Maybe even flirt a little. Just to let her know that she is still...well...not necessarily attractive, but...wanted?

Lately there has been a man who works in my office building who talks, smiles, opens my door...and he is cute as hell. I know he does this to other ladies also, so I don't and won't let it go to my head...but it makes me feel good.

And I've been receiving emails from a man I do not know. He wants to talk he says. I know nothing about him other than he is a mad dog (his words, not mine). I guess he read my profile and saw my little picture. I have no clue.

But, it makes me feel good. It makes me feel like a woman - again.

I guess I had started to lose that part of me. Someone who walks with her head held high, a little sway in my walk. Someone who can laugh again.

I don't want to lose that part of me. I want to laugh, cry, share, hold.

It's amazing what a smile and a kind word can do.

Why do you say 'not the man she is in a relationship with'? I've been married for 15 years to a wonderful man who still treats me like a woman, does things for me, tells me how much he appreciates me and thanks me for the little things - even just phoning someone for him or making his lunch for work. I hope that one day you will find someone like that for you - if that's what you would like, and then you can feel appreciated for the rest of your life - as a woman.

I think it's nice to get attention from other men. Being in a relationship doesn't mean you're no longer human. Finding somebody else attractive is only natural, as long as you don't act on it.

Agreed. sometimes it is nice to have a little male attention. as long as its perfectly clear what your intentions are than its harmless.
