Be you ~
I'm not going to tell you what to do.
You're on your own ~ be creative
to care enough to find ways to please me,
to care enough to be...
to care...
yes...

I think that's the key word.
I want you to care.

About me.
About us.

I want you to 
be in the moment,
be in the relationship,
be in the driver's seat.

Contribute
not just sit back and wait for cues.
You're not just along for the ride.

Be...
Care...

Be on top of your game.
Act like you care.
Give it all you've got
without holding back.

Like this is the real thing.
Like you want this to work.
Like you want this to be special.

Be consistent.

Consistently caring loving attentive.
Don't deviate from the script.
Love me like you mean it.

before getting married, I developed pretty good radar for those that acted: Like this is the real thing. Like you want this to work. Like you want this to be special. Most of those guys were narcissistic men incapable of long term relationships. Well said, Line.
