Thanks newlywed. She is on the Atkins Diet, and, even though I don't need to lose weight, when I am around her (and I do most of the cooking), I refrain from carb-laden food. She knows this is a big sacrifice, and she appreciates it. I think she is slowly losing some weight, but is frustrated with the slowness of it. Mostly, she is upset because her old clothes don't fit her anymore. We used to go on walks together after work, but not since the cold weather moved in here in Missouri. No gym membership, for many reasons, too numerous to go into right now.
I am into the "giving her space" period of the cycle. I haven't requested sex in a long time, and, when she brought it up the other night, I just said that I missed the cuddling. She said that cuddling was never what I wanted, that I always wanted sex. I suggested that we go through the rest of December, trying to cuddle more, but absolutely no sex. Should be a ND's dream, right? She seemed skeptical.
