Reminds me of a line from a Beastie Boys album...but it ends with some part of the male anatomy in the mashed potatoes...never mind....

 

The second Meerkat Monastery will be in a warehouse in Brooklyn, there will be Brass Monkey Communion with Grimaldi's slices instead of wafers and Mixmaster Mike will call to meditation.

This sounds more like my kind of party. Should I be concerned about the Brass Monkey Communion though?

I know what I respond to. This seems like a long list, but most of the traits overlap. I have a feeling a lot of these needs are fairly universal for women.

 

1) Someone who deeply appreciates me for the things that make me a unique person

 

2) Someone who is able to give as well as receive. Not that I would want to over-rely on them for support, but I'd want to at least KNOW that they'd be totally and completely there for me if I ever needed them. I'm not talking about a pushover, but someone who is able to give in a healthy way.

 

3) Someone who is fiercely protective and loyal.

 

4) Someone who is interested in me as a person (asks questions, tries to understand me) and makes an effort to stay in touch with what's going on inside me. They remember things I've said about myself, and stay at least somewhat attuned to where I'm at when we're together.

 

5) Someone who doesn't do the push-pull, who is direct with their emotions and isn't turned off by me being emotionally direct in return.

 

6) Someone who's ALL in when they commit to somebody.

 

7) someone who is all of the above but solid enough not to be overly clingy or dependent.

 

8) Someone who can trust and be trusted

 

This is a fantastic list.

 

I bolded #4 - which is the one that truly differentiates a serious romantic interest, from someone with whom you merely pass the time.

 

If I find a partner who meets the criteria of #4, then they will understand my emotional needs much better than I do, and vice versa.

:laugh: Ah ok you were talking about the drink. Sometimes the brass monkey refers to something else. Cool we're back in business then.

Pass morphine...

Sending me into a googling frenzy now to find out more about the "other brass monkey," hope you are pleased with yourself. :laugh:

 

 

EDIT: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :lmao: :lmao: , didn't know that one, makes sense though, always wondered where the drink name came from. No, for that kind of brass monkey reference, would open up an adult friendfinder account under the name "meerkat bollocks".
