Woog, I would also be happily woken up by someone wanting to love on me....but obv. you and I and a lot of us on here are not like my H....that is why I am here!
I would love spending time together and would be willing to cut down on my other endeavors to spend more time with the one I love. I wouldn't give up everything, then you lose yourself, but I would be willing to compromise. Again, that's why I am here!
K, you are right, I am verging into old BBJ territory and I don't like it one bit. Time to put the car back on the road and move toward that happiness thing...
I do blame myself for some of our troubles, but I think that looking down from a birds-eye view, I have taken some steps slightly off course, where my H has (IMO) taken all kinds of exits and detours around our marriage. I think I need to do more growing and changing and get away from the side of me that nags/whines. I don't like that side, anyway...But H will need to practically re-invent the wheel at this point. His job will be/is harder than mine. And I am the one with the energy to "do work". So we will see...........
