Question

I’ve always had strong opinions of how love should be expressed, but others had their own ways of showing care.

         What I      most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we      ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to      his family as cold. When we got into the      to go home, his father suddenly appeared.      , he began to wash his son’s windscreen. I could feel he was a caring man through the glass.

         I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often      me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant    or inquiry about my life, just financial instructions. This manner of his      me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his      morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I      him.

         When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt     . For example, I always return phone calls      and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the      : She wasn’t a good friend! My anger       as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I      and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was      at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be      . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.

         Far too often, I ignored their       expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my   . Over the years, however, I’ve learned to      other persons, love signs.
