Quote: Also, you say you're afraid to trust in his good will rather than his libido. But isn't this a way of moving toward a more adult relationship, where his desire is based more on appreciation for you as an individual, rather than relying on male hormonal response?
Isn't that what we all have to wrestle with as we age?
I am well aware that there is a certain amount of immaturity in my current mood/POV. I basically feel like throwing myself on the floor in a temper tantrum and chanting "It's not fair! It's not fair! It's not fair!".
Also, the thing about aging doesn't really help me. It's kind of like saying "You know you're going to need reading glasses, a bar on your bathtub and laxatives when you're older so why don't you start using them now?". Okay it's not really like that but I'm feeling bitter.
