SSM made me laugh and cry. After reading SSM, I am now questioning some foundational truths that I have about the who and what and why of my relationship. Other philosophies of the book I adopted without any thought because they were so near or exactly like my own.
I found the book an incredibly easy read, meaning that it wasn’t bogged down with jargon, nor was it boring. Even in the descriptions of feelings where I just could not personally relate (LD), I saw the truth in the words because they described H’s behavioral pattern. Now, I have some logic behind the madness, so to speak.
H told me in our Thursday night discussion that I needed to take the initiative. “I might not have a high sex drive, but I am still a guy. It’s the guy rule that if something goes up; we’ve got to act on that something.”
Not the same words as Michele, but what was he describing?
