Quote: The fact that our LD spouses feel like they're entitled to our faithfulness even though they don't make an effort to meet our sexual needs.
I see your point JJ and agree something like what you said does happen (both feel the other is not doing enough).
I also see where the LD is doing a little something, but not much, and S/he thinks s/he is doing alot, then sees the HD still being dissatisfied.
Its like the HD has not had a drink all day while mowing grass and the LD is inside drinking a bottled 7UP or Old 8oz bottle of Coke. The LD thinks the 8oz. bottle taste terrific and the HD lawn mower is thinking 32oz. iced tea. All the LD can think about is the quality of the drink because it is her favorite. The LD person puts too much value in his/her offer and thinks it should be good enough for everyone else too.
I will not post about those little sushi things verses a real meal. I hope you get the point.
I'm sorry I posted and ran. My days can sometimes go south in a heartbeat.
JJ did a good job at defining what I was talking about.
I do want to add some additional considerations and examples, but it is almost 2:30am here and I am still behind for the day.
I apologize for not fleshing it out in greater detail to begin with. I have been studying entitlement and how it affects relationships for a while now. I find that a person's sense of entitlement often paints a very discernible picture of their place within a relationship, often exposing conditions that would otherwise be belied by the outside appearance of the relationship.
I hope that Friday will be a quieter day.

I will ferret out an affair at any opportunity.
-An affair is the embodiment of entitlement, fueled by resentment and lack of respect. -An infidel will remain unreachable so long as their sense of entitlement exceeds their ability to reason.
Hey folks, I just wanted to let y'all know that the family and I are heading to Wisconsin on our summer vacation. I'll be here until tomorrow, about midday.
The thing I hate about vacation is coming back here and seeing immense amounts of posting, so keep it quiet until July 6, okay? No crises, no new members, no new appearances by spouses or significant others of long-time posters, and no more Cemar-bashing.
