Michael Horvath is an extreme introvert although you wouldn’t know it if you looked at his 6’5″ muscular frame, spiked hair, tattoos and earrings. Outside of his professional career in the counseling field, he is a musician and songwriter with his own home studio. It is here he expresses himself through writing, in his lyrics. He has written and recorded approximately 250 songs, from hard rock to hip hop/pop mix. Michael began a blog for fun 5 months ago and noticed his posts were impacting quite a few people evidenced by their comments. He is truly humbled by this and believes God is working through him. His posts can be found at http://hawk052.blogspot.com/
If you’ve notices, thus far we haven’t featured any men during the All About Love Blog Tour. Well, it’s Valentine’s Day and that’s getting ready to change today. In the spotlight today is Michael Horvath, an artist and the significant other of one of my very bestest friends. Michael not only loves my girlfriend but he also can express it and express it very well he does–as he brings it today. But, don’t take my word for it. Check it out for yourself.
MAKIN’ LOVE JUST AIN’T IN THE BED
I’m gonna talk about my own thoughts here, nobody else’s. It took me a long time to figure this out. I’m talking about love and being a real man. That’s three words, love, real and man.
Some of you men who read this may think I’m a wimp, using a nice term. That’s ok, keep doing what you’re doing. I know better.
NUMBER ONE! The first thing I do is to “serve” my woman. I put all of her wants and needs above mine. Everything. Some of you guys get it. Most of you guys won’t. It took me a long time to figure it out. Take my advice, don’t ask why. Do it. You won’t be sorry. I look after the lady in my life like no other. Because there is no other like her.
I shut my mouth. I Listen. And pay attention. Women don’t always want to have their problems solved; they want to vent, to express themselves, to be heard.
I am very protective of her. And not just in a physical sense. Mentally and emotionally as well. We share spiritually.
I let her know she can depend on me. By my actions. I am there for her 24/7, no questions asked, for anything she needs.
When she’s down she needs a hug. Or I give her a foot massage. Or a neck rub/back massage.
I take charge. Women like a man who can make decisions. And I let her take charge sometimes because I know she likes that we are partners in everything. And I will be the first to admit that she can be right more times than I am.
I show her I am vulnerable. That I need her. I lean on her. I trust her with my “stuff”. And she never lets me down.
I work out. I want my lady to have the very best arm candy she can. Don’t fool yourself into thinking that women aren’t at all visual because they are. Women like muscles guys. A nice chest, arms and stomach. Get off your a** cuz they like a nice one of those on their man too.
I romance her. I leave love notes. I buy her some chocolate when she’s PMSing. I’ve run a hot bath and washed her hair. Open her car door. Everytime!
I try to be her best friend. I show her respect and don’t discount her. I never take her for granted.
It’s all about her. In the bed that is. I make sure she gets hers. I have found that giving my girl pleasure is all I need to be satisfied. And she wants to please me all the more.
I’m silly. We have fun. We laugh.
I’m honest. I share my ups and downs. I try to be transparent and let her in my head and heart. It’s not always easy and I’m not perfect but I’m working on it.
I honor her. After all, she has given me the greatest honor by choosing me. To allow me to be with her. I am grateful to be so lucky to be next to her. To have her hold my hand. To cuddle up against me on the couch. To be with me. To love me unconditionally and let me be my truest self. I am privileged to be hers. I have learned the most important lesson and that is to serve the woman in my life. There is no other like her. She is perfect
for me. This is what love means to me.
“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love.”
1 Corinthians 16:13

You are both lucky to have each other. Some men may need a lesson or two.
Good advice for the men.
Um…do you have any brothers? LOL. No, really…
Wow. The fellas will have a hard time topping that.

Thank you for the comments. I was truly honored that Yas chose me to post on APOOO. I was a bit nervous to be the only man, (and white boy too-lol) to be featured. The words I wrote are truly how I love my woman, not just something that comes out of my mouth. I am blessed that God has given me the insight to see what a real man should be to a woman. I live it.
Thank you Yas for featuring me.
Thank you all who read what I am about.
