I like it, but am I being manipulated?




Good question. I've seen this pattern too and I'm not sure so I give her the benefit of the doubt and choose to be hopeful that it is a good sign.

Next step is a less passive approach, correct? "These are my needs...."





Next step is to repeat those 3 things...just kidding. Actually you are right. Just be careful to use the word "need" right now...I found that it gets misinterpreted. For about 2 months, I would only use the word "want" and I had to keep telling myself that I didn't "need" anything. It's a good exercise. The only time I said "need" was when I truly learned to feel my EC drop after a few days of no sex...so I said to my W "I need to ML with you, my enthusiastic partner, every few days to sustain my EC to you." This began the longest, drawn out convo as she tried to understand this idea better.
