My point was that I wanted to connect with her this one time, and I wanted it to be clear to her. I think I made it sound more dramatic than it was. What I said at the time was "Could we please have sex this time?" I don't think that was too excessive, and it's certainly not my usual practice.
I didn't "pout" about it either. I tried to bring up the subject for discussion so we could find a resolution. That's when she basically told me she was too grown up for sex. Sorry, I just don't get that at all.
Frankly I don't know what ACTIONS I need to take now. I read TSSM a couple of years ago but couldn't get her to read it. Perhaps I will read it again.
