Gel - ditto on the not feelin too sexy during the period sentiment. When I was younger I did find that sex during a p has a way of easing cramps though.
Heading into the weekend with H. I can only hope that is healing emotionally from visiting his Mom last weekend. He did propose a date for us on Saturday. Goodness knows, I am game. The rest of the weekend will be devoted to getting kids ready for school to start on Monday and going to some birthday parties. I would love to think that we would be horizontal at least two of three nights after our recent hiatus but I suspect that it will only happen if I bring it up, mention it, start it or move things that direction. That just chaps my hide. I may or may not really be up for that. He knows I want it by now, am getting frustrated by it and so he doesn't need to do anything. If I do start it then I forever wonder if I was the only one who was really iterested.
H made a recent comment that he is frutrated by all the things going wrong (teenager stuff, his Mom, just found out his cholesterol is high etc...) and that he just needs a week where things go right. Then he can focus on things that he wants to and he named a couple of things - one of them was "having more regular sex". I am always baffled when he makes those kind of references. My question is - what is stopping you? Does anyone have any idea of how to get around the idea that everything must be going just right in order to ML?
