Hi Blackie

A straight male friend at work is planning to go to the Xmas party dressed up as a fairy. We teased him about this but he just said that any man who does not want to get dressed up in drag must not be comfortable with their own sexuality. When I told my H about this he said that he thought this guy was "a little too comfortable with his sexuality".

But teasing aside I have always thought the perfect guy would be a gay man who liked women. Why does the Prince of Wales spring to mind, I am not sure, well it's not because I consider him the perfect guy (a bit old) but I do admire his perfectly manicured grounds at Highgrove. Anyway let us move on.

I do think it is a good thing to take some time for yourself. Look after yourself. A massage would be a good idea actually with all this stress.

I think you should treat your wife in a friendly but neutral way. I wouldn't mention anything to do with sex unless she brings it up first.
