So: Let’s say she asks for sex. Recommended course of action? Oblige? Deny? Tell her to strip right there and then get after it? Or, have sex but such that she isn’t really satisfied? Or something else I haven’t mentioned?
Given our past history, I’m also kinda waiting for the ‘why haven’t you asked to have sex in [however long]?’ What would be a good response?
Michele actually does address this in DR. If I remember right, in a nutshell she says it's fine to continue having sex as long as you don't have expectations that it means anything has changed, because sex in itself has certainly not ever brought a WAS back to the M. She goes on to say if you think it will affect you negatively, then don't do it. So she kind of leaves it up to the LBS to decide if it's OK or not. In MC my ex said she loved the sex and wanted to resume having it, so we did. We kept it up until she moved out. It was strange and awkward though, more like physical gratification than anything else.

Have you tried CrossFit? If you like pushups I bet you would love CrossFit. CrossFit has made me a huge fan of bodyweight movements- situps, pushups, handstand pushups, pullups, muscle-ups, ring dips, etc. An awesome side benefit of it is it is a very social environment. You'll meet new people of both sexes, and there are plenty of opportunities to do stuff with them outside of the box/gym as well.

In response to my earlier post about when W will ask for sex: I have to continue to believe that I am a prize TO SOMEONE. That there has to be a woman out there (W 2.0, or maybe someone else) who can / will see my gifts and talents, and want to build a life with me and sleep with me. I’m sure that there has to be at least ONE OTHER WOMAN out there who right now wants the chance to be with me
Oh believe me there are plenty. We talk about how WAS's almost always affair down, well LBS's tend to upgrade. They usually find someone that is more attractive and more put together than their WAS was. I would have stayed with my ex for life had I been given the opportunity, but I wasn't. So I moved on and my current GF is half her age, sweet, thinks I hung the moon, and looks like a Playboy centerfold. Like the saying goes, when life hands you lemons then make lemonade, LOL!
