Just thought I would pop in with something that goes through my head ALL the time.
It is called "Sex is FREE"
What do I mean by this?
Basically, it is the title I give to one of my major frustrations and I bet it is shared by many HD people on this board.
Here's how it works.
I make an okay living. All combined I would say we are pulling in just over 50k a year. We live in a small town. That is plenty of money for a nice three bedroom house, two cars and a vacation in the summer time.
My wife has never been a material person, so we are quite happy with our situation.
================
So, I'm driving to work and I see a Porsche drive by. Would I like to drive a Porsche? Sure, I would...
can I afford one? nope.
do I want to work like a dog and give up other things to have one? nope.
I can accept this. A Porsche is simply not in my cards. I was not born with an oil well on my property and I have not one the lottery.
================
I go to a buffet and they have dozens of delicious plates of food.
Can I eat 14 slices of cake? Sure, but I will gain 20 pounds and have to increase my exercise.
================
A lady I work with is very attractive. Could I force her into the broom closet and have sex with her? Maybe, but I'm married and it is against my vows.
================
So, you're wondering... what does this have to do with the sex is free part.
Everyday I am tempted by things I would like to have or do. One of the things that tempts me is my beautiful wife.
The major difference is that of all the things that tempt me one of them (my wife) is available. There she is... right there in bed beside me.
Does it cost anything for me to make love to my wife? no... just the cost of a condom.
Will I have to break a marriage vow to make love to my wife? no, as a matter of fact... I'm expected to ML to my wife.
Will I have to give up something to afford sex with my wife? no, sex with her is free and I do not need to give up or pay anything.
I guess it just seems to me like I'm wasting time. Just waiting for that next crumb to be tossed my way so I can gobble it up.
