I bet you were suprised when he told you how often he was doing that for you. My LDH would constantly tell me that he "never" thought about sex at all...I could have fallen out of my chair when our therapist asked him about that in one of our sessions...and he said he did, but that he never told me so. I was sooo SHOCKED to hear that, up until that moment I had been operating under the information that I just didn't turn him on at all...what a relief it was to learn that he just had a problem communicating to me that he did think about it...but that other things were getting in the way. I've explained since to him that simply telling me that he thought about it earlier in the day...even though we may not actually have sex, would really help me out in many ways...my self-esteem wouldn't quite feel so beaten with that info. He's trying to do better about that. And you are very lucky to have a man who is trying to meet your needs, you are indeed a very fortunate woman...as am I as my LDH has committed to getting our problem worked out. He's told me he knows a good thing when he's got it and he's not going to lose it...which gives me hope and makes me feel good at the same time :-) Good luck!!!
