Help Me Act AS IF, Part 3

[newnamenewlife]

Hi Ingrid, I'm sorry to hear you are finding things tough right now. Honestly, I feel better for having forced my H's hand a bit, even though I still have deep doubts about him wanting to remain in our M long-term. That may not be right for you, but I think you are more than entitled to know at this point what he's doing, at least in the short term. You'd expect a tenant to let you know their plans for staying or leaving.

I don't think I should push the sex idea any further for now. The fact that my H wants to wait until the weekend is unnerving enough, given how long it's been and how he used to leap at any opportunity to have sex. So he definitely experienced my boldness as pressure, I think, though I tried to make the no-strings-attached concept clear (though I am unlikely to feel OK with that for real). On the other hand, I was thrilled that he said I was still sexy and beautiful to him--that has made my day.
