Cemar feels this from his W, that she really finds it a chore to make the effort to have sex with him. I feel my H finds it a chore to make the effort to sit and shoot the breeze with me. (In fact he very rarely if ever does and almost always quickly turns the subject round to whatever he needs to talk about. I know this is true and not just my pov because I have spent time standing back from our conversations and "watching" them. Keeping my good humour up and just from time to time dropping in new topics, it takes about two sentences for him to go back to grumbling about the day he's had at work.)
Oh no! I thought he was really coming around. Is this a setback or is he really back in his shell to stay?
a fine and enviable madness, this delusion that all questions have answers, and nothing is beyond the reach of a strong left arm.
