Hello Smiles,
My whole marriage life my situation has been the opposite. W could care less if we ever ML. I can not speak to the this directly because you are a F and I a M. But, I know from my own situation there is no way I could cut out the ML and not feel resentment. It is something I have tried to do repeadidly and it ALWAYS ends in a fight and anger. When you receive posts from others, I will be interested in seeing how others feel about this.
