Thanks R2C. I love his sporting events. W (if she even goes) and I kinda mingle with other people. But this school function tonight will be sitting in an auditorium together for a few hours. Ugh.

Throughout our relationship, especially pre-marriage, the dynamic was usually me pursuing her, my wants and needs taking a back seat to hers, etc. Again, not that I was a pushover wimp, but at it's core I was a 'nice guy'. Most things have usually been on her terms. We wouldn't have sex, and she'd say it was because of x. I'd do more of x, sex wouldn't improve, and she'd say it's now because of y. I'd do y, etc, etc, etc.

Maybe if/when this is all over I'll write or tell her this stuff. When we were in MC years ago, the focus was on her at first. When we started to get into my wants, needs, etc, covid hit and we never went back.
