Advice for vacation w/ wife in MLC

[JMC]

Does sound like classic MLC and your experience is similar to mine.

should I try to initiate sex if the opportunity arises? Should I tell her I love her?

I can only speak from my experience. After W dropped the bomb we ML almost on a weekly basis even after she moved out until we sold our home last June. During one of those times after a great dinner with several glasses of wine, I mentioned the ILY phrase. Not a good idea. That was a deal killer. She stopped everything and just began balling.

So, I guess my advice based upon my experience would be that since you are going to be on what would be advertised as being a 'romantic' getaway, if the mood strikes go for it, but do not mention ILY.
