. Especially when it comes to the fact that a man must do something to “entertain” me, surprise me, or constantly occupy my attention. Honestly, I think it’s a little strange. Well, I’m not saying that I’m some kind of boring person, on the contrary, I love life and enjoy the little things. But, to be honest, I just want to be around him.

You don’t have to laugh, joke, or have some kind of adventure all the time. Sometimes it’s enough to just sit together, and there’s so much warmth and comfort in that quiet moment. It may sound trite, but it’s important to me to have a person next to you with whom you can be silent without feeling awkward. That’s real.

I think we often fall into the trap of expectations that the world imposes on us, or even that we set for ourselves: “You have to be constantly on the move, constantly doing something interesting, so that the relationship doesn’t become boring.” But isn't true intimacy the ability to simply be there? It's not necessary to put on a show every day or be a "superstar" in the eyes of your partner. Sometimes it's enough to just be there - and that's great.

It's probably not so easy to explain to those who are used to more active relationships, where everything "burns" and "sparkles". But it seems to me that true harmony is not in constant emotions, but in simplicity and naturalness. You can live and breathe together, not chasing everyday impressions, but simply enjoy the fact that someone is there.

I'm not saying that relationships shouldn't be interesting or inspiring. They definitely should be! But entertaining me is not a man's responsibility. It's more of a bonus, which is great if there is one. But if it's not there, it's not a reason for disappointment. The main thing is to have trust and calm.

I want a man to understand that you don't have to do something special to win my attention. Your presence is enough for me. I find it interesting to watch you, to listen to your thoughts, to know that there is a person nearby who you can lean on and who does not run away when things get quiet.

We too often confuse love with entertainment. But love is not a show or constant entertainment. It is a deep feeling that gives strength and inspiration, even when nothing special is happening.

So if you are reading this and think that you have to be “on top” all the time — let it go. Just be yourself. Be there. And that is enough.
