By the way, whenever I say "sleeping with me" I mean just sleeping. We still haven't made love in years. She says it's suffering just to sleep in the same bed with me without the kids. Her main excuse is still that she needs to sleep with the kids.
I haven't done the quid pro quo thing, and I'm not planning to per se. She seems happy with me this morning, but we'll see how happy.
She did a lot more than she ever has regarding such business, but you are right. She just doesn't understand what the people are talking about, so she has me call them , blah, blah.
What really ticked me off was that W tried to "trick" a few dollars out of the seller by sneaking some things into the contract and hoping they wouldn't catch them. Then for weeks she was complaining, "How are we going to get them to pay for these things?" I darn near called the whole thing off.
One defense of the quid pro quo. I know that if she were to have sex a few times with me, even under the duress of obligation, it would be OK for her and might erase some of the bad memories she has of previous sex. Just a thought.
