Damn! I wish I could give this piece a thousand hearts. I had a similar conversation with a male partner not long ago. He asked what I expected of him, and I said nothing.

He was shocked. To his surprise he asked why? I told him I expected nothing because he had nothing I needed in a man.

I think he got offended. But I was merely being honest. Men who are boys think doing house chores, being loyal and honest are unrealistic expectations certainly have nothing a woman NEEDS in a partner.
