how you make love without dick tho?

You use water color to paint on her skin

You wash her hair/ help her with her hair

Cuddle up naked in the dark talking about your goals

When she’s crying you hold her until she stops

if you think she needs something you get it (ex. if her period is coming up soon you go to the store and buy ice cream/chocolate)

Wake up before her and make her breakfast

sliding your finger from her forehead to the back of her ear to fix her hair to get a better look

Walking her home when it’s really late to make sure she gets home safe

Surprising her with concert tickets to her favorite artist

All of this is making love. I’m sorry society has failed you and you think the only way to make love is shoving your dick inside of her.

This. This and this and this.

And of course it should go both ways. All the ways.

I miss this. I miss his hands holding my face and his thumbs pressing against my lips. When he’s holding my face he likes to study me. He just looks. It feels like he’s trying to memorize me, his eyes trail along the curves of my face. His head tilts and his lips move a bit. When it feels like forever, I’ll start to nip at his fingers because I’ve grown impatient and awkward. Being studied is an intrusive feeling I enjoy but it has to end sometime. He ignores the nips until they turn into bites then he’ll flick my teeth or lightly slap my face or bum, “Be still” he’ll say. Gazing just a bit longer and then he lets go and I hide my face in his shoulder. Maybe next time I get to see him I’ll let him look for as long as he wants without my protesting, maybe.
