She's pointing out the stud who's got a 34" waist. You'll succeed and feel great about it, but you'll need to make sure not to give up no matter how bad you feel.

Go get some clothes that match your figure anyhow. Not lots, maybe one or two new things. Maybe use it as a reward?

Is it possible that she is trying to get me to initiate physical activities. It has been at least 5 months since we have been intimate.


What do you want more - do a 180 and make her feel sexy and desired or to take the chance that your marriage will fall apart and you'll be living alone? Do the 180. It must be hard to be shy about a very important need for men (sex). For women, I think, it is even harder to have a shy husband because men are expected to lead and women follow (more often) in this area.

Plan out the things you'd need to get her and you in the mood. If she rejects - who cares? You'll have really made a spark go off in her heart that says this SMM23 is a much cooler man than I thought. Just keep trying.
