Orgasmic conversations...

I once read somewhere...most likely in a Cosmo or Cleo Magazine...that one of the most errogenous zones on a womans body was in fact her brain.

Whether or not that is completely true...or if there is even any factual evidence to back it up, i dont know.

But what i do know, is if a guy can hold a mentally stimulating conversation with me...i find it really attractive and i dare say - sexy & highly erotic.

It has something to do with the signals that get sent to the brain when you are having an enjoyable conversation with someone.

I am amazed at how we can debate on an even playing field...and it is almost like a tennis rally with the way we deliver our comments to eachother, back and forth, returning the ball in eachother's court with better accuracy at each turn.

"Knowledgeable."

I think that is the most perfect word to describe him.

The compliment about my wit. To him, that is my best asset. My personality and my intelligence.

There were times i thought it was a curse to be interested in so many things and be supposedly "intelligent".

Its nice to be appreciated the way u are.

I once said during dinner to him, after saying something without much thought: "I think i should just sit here and bite my tongue from here on in..."

And he said to me: "No, dont do that...i enjoy hearing what u have to say."

I swooned.

I bought him a novel, well Anne Frank's autobiography, because he said in passing one day, that it was one of the books he wanted to read, but hadn't had the chance to get his hands on.

I wrote a quote in on the inside of the cover:

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched ... but are felt in the heart." - Helen Keller

And then i wrote underneath it:

"I think this is what you are trying to help me to comprehend..."

When he read it, he looked a bit taken...i think he was moved that i understood what he meant all this time.

I asked if it was a tad "profound" for him??? hehehehe...

I have come to realise that its not just women who enjoy "orgasmic conversations"...what makes me so attractive in his eyes (and ears) is my ability to have these conversations...during dinner...over coffee...over the phone...etc, with him.

One nite he asked: "So, why are u going out with me?" [In terms of what do u find attractive in me].

I paused.

Not because i didnt know why...i realised why...i just wasnt sure if i should tell him...would it be too much information? would he appreciate the reason?

After my pause and a deep breath, i said to him:

"For a long time, i was only keen on dating older guys...perhaps a guy 10 years my senior...reason being is because i thought that he would be more worldly and knowledgeable...he would have a lot of experiences to share with me...and if he was willing to teach, i was ready to learn.

My interest was to meet someone who would inspire me to learn and experience new things and rediscover the things i once knew...to motivate me in being creative...to captivate me in conversation...to mentally stimulate me in the way i yearn for.

I thought that i would only find it in an older guy...but i guess i've been proven wrong, because all those things i have mentioned, i have found in you.

You have that effect on me, and that is why im going out with you."

He blushed.

It was because of him, i picked up my brushes to paint. I had all these emotions that i didnt quite understand and the only way i could think of expressing my emotions was to paint it.

I like the fact that we have various experiences to share with eachother...but i like it more that there are all these other moments that we can absorb together.
