Britt, I sent a post and then deleted it b/c I just kept getting myself in deeper.... IMHO, I think your MC was really being very gentle with you.....instead of coming across like I do. ( )
We women usually want to place a lot of meaning to sex.....and we relate certain events or times having more meaning when we are intimate with our H's. However, from all that I've read and heard......men can very easily separate having sex from any thing else. To most men...it's just sex! Kind of takes the romance out of it, doesn't it?
The reason I said what I did about his age.....is mostly b/c (as I barely remember...lol) most 25 yr old males always have sex on the brain and seldom turns down a chance to have it. All the time you were probably attaching a lot of meaning or trying to figure out his feelings....he was just enjoying the fact he had sex. Sorry I'm so plain, but don't know how to say this very well.
I do hope your MC is right, Britt....but please don't set yourself up for disappointment.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
IMHO, I think your MC was really being very gentle with you.....instead of coming across like I do. (
