You had one exception, when you put your foot down and moved out, that should tell you something.
In retrospect it wasn't worth the effort for the small amount and quality sex. But overall, of course, I learned something.
This also touches on another reason for my current lack of enthusiasm for a Herculean effort. Based on the backsliding which happened after our separation, it's my impression that even if a Hurculean effort works, I will have to continue making a Herculean effort all the time, in whatever form it takes, like threats, ultimatums, etc. I really don't want to have sex with someone who's doing it because they think I will leave otherwise. I Understand this. I think we all do. But it does make me wonder about what you are doing here, in a pro-marriage support site.
It sure would be nice to just have someone who wants sex as a part of a normal life, not with me struggling to maintain some kind of threat/reward structure to keep it going. I mean, if it comes down to that, I think it's just more honest, straightforward, and even cheaper in terms of time and effort to have a paid escort drop by every few days.
b/c I figured this^^^ extra-marital area was where you were heading...
