Re: Lil I tried to like it. We camped on the beach-- yuck! Sand gets in EVERYWHERE. So it turned out I didn't like camping. It wasn't a bait and switch. I changed my mind. Now my idea of roughing it is a place that doesn't have room service
Honest try, good for you. I don't consider that bait and switch. I have learned what indoor plumbing means to most women if that is any help. I lived in florida and worked on cars in the sand driveway. I did not mind laying in the sand but got frustrated many times at trying to keep sand out of bearings. Sand and bearings are something like gasoline and open flames but slower. Both don't mix and the end results are dictruction. Gas fast, sand slow.
I used to go with my first husband to the hardware store, just because I wanted to be near him. I went with my second husband to Academy (he was an avid fisherman and hunter), because it was fun for him. I wouldn't have gone on my own. Was that dishonest?
I don't see anything dishonest in the above situations.
I go to the mall with BB once in a while because I feel I have an obligation to do some things she likes.
I am really trying to avoid the bait and switch labels in this conversation. Just saying in some rare cases bait and switsh does exist.
Most of this LD/HD stuff happens gradually and chips away at what should be a primary relationship. Mind you, most times the sick kids and baby tending do come first at times of the week, but sometimes what is left of the R after many years of neglecting each other is painful to deal with.
If a man/woman can find time to read "Harry Potter" from start to end what is wrong with spending 15 to 30 minuets in bed with your spouse and having sex/ML? Need help with other chores so you have the time? Ask for it on a per incident basis.
