I feel really feminine when I'm with my boyfriend. Guys: How could I make him feel masculine when he's with m?

There are some things about my boyfriend that make me feel so feminine when I'm with him. I want to return this to him (but masculine instead of feminine lol). I hope this question makes sense...

I've thought about what could cause me to feel this, and I think it's his:

Calm deep voice

Black hair, black eyes

Simple but attractive clothes

Tall and toned body

His scent

So masculine- Feel like I could swoon when he hugs me

Gives off the impression that he is strong, emotionally and physically

If we go shopping, he will carry the bag/basket. Even if it's light, he will take it from me.

And with all this, he just seems to love me so much. He always goes out of his way for me. And he seems really happy if I do something special for him, such as buy him a present and if we hug and after we look into each others' eyes, he has a really happy look on his face. That he cares about me so much also gives me this feeling.

... Basically he makes me feel really feminine when I'm with him. How could I make him feel masculine?

I know it might be a silly thing to think about, but I don't know if I give him this feeling and I want to.

Nothing sexual though because we're waiting until marriage. Girls, can you relate to these feelings?

Thank you in advance!

There is nothing that makes me feel more masculine that impressing a girl, and about ten times as much if I never even intended to -- impressing her by just being *me*. It doesn't matter how the impressing was done -- it could be through a feat of strength, a display of intellect, the recognition of social acumen. It could even be impressed by me giving her flowers or doing something romantic (romantic prowess). All of these different areas are different paths to power and the paths used are less important than getting there. Acknowledge his power.

It has to be genuine though. Can't feign being impressed, or she will look kind of like an idiot. It would be a turn-off and a shocker if she was impressed by something I thought was stupid or too easy (although I'm fine with "just" easy -- after all, the male ego is a vain thing).

I hope this helps. Also, congrats on your decision to save yourself. It is a very sound practice. Just remember that *afte*r you're married, don't let all that time saving turn you into a prude :) Nail that future husband hard...
