I can definately identify with you. It sounds like our wives are the same in this respect (I haven't read your other posts so I can't say they are exactly alike).
Anyway... my wife is definately two different people with no middle ground. If we are ML then I can touch her anywhere, no problem. If we are not ML then it is HANDS OFF. I have a friend who tells me that he goes up to his wife in the kitchen and grabs her breast while hugging her from behind. His wife is LD too, but she just says "lay off" - and then he snickers... I told him that if I did that I would get decked.
My wife does not want to be touched in any of the "forbidden zones" unless we are ML. One time she was worried about a lump on her breast. She was telling me about it in the bedroom and she just said "here, you feel and tell me what you think..." I was so shocked I actually had to ask her permission three times... "you want me to TOUCH your breast?" - "you want me to TOUCH YOUR BREAST right now?" - "with my HAND, are you sure?"
Isn't that ridiculous...
Let's see if this one fits...
My wife thinks I'm a sex maniac (we have sex once every 19 days by her schedule). I try to explain to her that I just want to be extremely comfortable with her - she doesn't understand me. This morning she was getting up to go biking. I was going to get in the shower. We had a sleepover for my son so there were other kids in the house. Here is how the scene played out. She closed the bedroom door. Got every item of clothing she was going to need out of the bathroom closet and placed it on the bed. Then she waited for me to go into the bathroom so she could change out of my sight. Wouldn't it have just been so much more comfortable (intimate) if she came in the bathroom while I was undressing for the shower and got changed into her clothes.
Yeah, I know what you're going to say... body image...
