Quote: The suggestion is to double your schedule. The reasoning being to force to the surface, the underlying issues with your relationship.
The question; how do you think she would respond?
I don’t know, but in all honesty, I don’t see her going for it.
First, I predict that the suggestion would make her angry. Once a week is way up from twice a year. She’s going along, but I know that she doesn’t really want to ML that often. I can almost hear her telling me that I’ll never be satisfied if I were to ask her to up the schedule to twice a week.
The second thing is just the schedule itself. I good HD fashion, I’m up for it any time, but W is definitely a morning sex person. We’ve been married for 29 years (next month), and in those 29 years, I’ll bet that we’ve had any kind of sexual encounter less than 25 times at night. Since we started ML on a regular basis some 5 months ago, it’s been once. W is a SAHM who may love me, but LOVES her sleep. I have to be at work at 0600, so I’m up and gone well before she drags herself and the kids out of bed.
Right now, we ML on Saturday mornings. We invariably end up staying up too late on Saturday and get up just in time to get everybody up, dressed, and fed and make it to church fashionably late. I would certainly commit to making it to bed a little earlier on Saturday if it meant ML on Sunday morning, but W would say, “WHAT!!! We just did it yesterday!” I know. I’ve tried.
I may try chewing around the edges of adding a mid-week night to the schedule just to see what reaction I get.
