I said "understanding".
Understanding that everyone is their own autonomous being
Understanding that no one is perfect
Understanding that we all need a few aspects (sometimes different aspects) of any relationship to *help* us (not *make* us) feel loved and valued
Mutual understanding builds trust and nurtures other parts of a relationship, gives us room to breathe, to be ourselves with each other.
Rant over. [:

Would have said the same if the voting software could take it.
Made up short verse from these words:
Said, with wit:
"No fence-sit!
All of it,
Minus kit
For first bit!"

TRUST!!!!

For a real woman, sex becomes unimportant if her partner does not behave compassionately toward them most of the time or at least acts like they understand them the other part of the time.

Trust. Fuck understanding. You can forgive because you understand but will you trust again? Without trust there is no intimacy.

Sorry I'm with the majority on this. Trust is definitely the most important thing in a relationship. That and being able to remember to have a bloody good laugh.
