I am just learning some of your situation but it sounds very loving and unselfish of him and I have seen you write before that things don't fall into place overnight but that does sound like a step in the right direction. I understand how you feel. I am guessing because of the LD on his part that this is new territory and if you are like me you are a pleaser and want him to get gratification too.. Well who is to say he didn't of course I know what you mean when you say he wasn't but maybe it was more on a mental level which isn't bad and it is progress. I don't know if I am helping or making it sound worse. Sorry just trying to reach out because I understand so much how you feel about wanting to be desired and wanted.. ;-) I want to help and I dont have a clue what I am talking about.. I don't know if you can relate to this but when my husband does ML to me then I feel like he did it to either get me off his back just so I would leave him alone or so he could mbate and know I would not be putting in a request for ML. To me it seems like a crazy way to think but I have felt undesired for so long I feel that when he does want to ML there is a hidden motive there.. And I don't think there always is but it is easier to comprehend that than try and understand why he would want me now.. Am I making any sense???
