Reading your post-sex posts this weekend Susana exhausted me, just as a guy, and I guarantee your husband is feeling some of this same "smothering." HE WAS HORNY -- HE'S ATTRACTED TO YOU. YOU GUYS HAD SEX. Try not to over-analyze it. Us men really are simple creatures.
Thank you for saying this, Starsky, I've been wanting to say it for days. Susana, my H and I continued to sleep together and ML for 7 months after BD, until the day he moved out. It obviously meant nothing to him, he moved out anyway. And I knew it didn't all along, but I was happy with the arrangement, sometimes women are simple creatures, too. Don't drive yourself crazy that it has to mean something.
