Hi Ellie... Yeah, I'm sure you're right and I needed to hear that. Darn rope keeps reaching out and grabbing me. Seriously though, I agree absolutely with you...it's just the DOING it that gets tough for me...
I have reminded myself several times of something that was said on the Mars/Venus tape, that even though a guys efforts may seem "fake" or stiff, if he's making any effort at all to meet a woman's needs, it is probably sincere. It seems "stiff" because new behaviors are awkward at first.
