PS - Seeker, I think between DH and I, his traits (sensitivity, communication, etc.) are probably much more female than mine. I think I am more the "male" in our relationship, lol. Maybe this is why so many women like to befriend gay men (DH isn't gay, but he's really like having a girlfriend - with benefits). He always loves to talk about everything and he's so sappy. Definitely not what I'm used to in a man.
I hear you Debbie -- Nothing pleases me as much as pleasing DH. I love to see that shining sparkle in his eye and the slight grin

Also I can relate to the female/male traits. We, DH & I, can be watching a movie and during the sensistive moments, he will "leak" tears and very rarely do I. Because I grew up with two brothers, I think I pretty much learned to hide my emotional side most of the time; i grew up as a tomboy.

But I too, love the sensitive side to him. And I relate to what you're saying as far as feeling more male myself, at times.
