holding out for a hero?

Every woman wants a hero – that guy who’s going to jump right into the fray, help keep her secure and safe. Is that just an unrealistic dream or can it actually happen?

In retrospect, I felt S was my hero…even with flaws and imperfections. I guess that’s the toughest thing for me to reconcile, the loss of feeling that he’d do the right thing, even when it was difficult.  I felt he’d make decisions based on keeping our relationship in the highest regard. <sigh> .

There was nothing “wrong” between us. In fact, it was pretty damned good. Great sex, intriguing conversations, hot chemistry which only continued to grow. Which causes me to wonder why he did it.

When it comes right down to it, I probably don’t need a hero. Just a man who has his priorities straight and appreciates what’s right in front of him. After this experience, S may step up and be that man.  That would be all the hero I need or want.
