Quote: Lately, I've been considering a mental 180 on the "leverage" issue which reverses the usual marital sexual economics. Instead of thinking of sex as something I have to "pay" my LD partner for in some form, I could consider sex as something my partner "owes" me and if I don't receive it I should get compensation. For instance, on each occasion I don't get laid 2x a week, I should take $50 from his bank account and spend it on something fun just for me. If he doesn't put out he can pay up.
Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
What the swift mind beholds at every turn.
Edna St. Vincent Millay
