A) I want to feel what it feels like to lay with my wife B) I want my wife to hold me C) I want to hold her D) I want to kiss my wife E) I want to have the most passionate sex in the world.
You have 3 choices:
1) Do nothing. 2) Take actions toward these without talking. 3) Talk about these with her.
I almost always have better success with choice #2. #3 has worked, but mostly when my relationship was in a good place. If you shoot for E, then you might get to experience the others.
Find something that would be fun and exciting. I look for live music. Arrange for someone to watch Son (THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART) Tell W that you are going to the event. Ask her if she would like to join you. If she says no, then you should be fairly confident that she will say no to E. If she asks about son, say "I took care of that" If she says yes, then you say "perfect, lets plan on leaving the house at 6P". Show her a good time.
Have you done your homework on E? Will she be pleasantly surprised by the "NewOZ"?
