We're nothing if not specific on this board. Glad it entertained you.
I have told H some similar things but like HP says my H's desire is but a flicker, easily ignored. Last weekend when he liked the way I looked in a tank top and shorts he was able to make a sexy comment but no sex followed and still hasn't. If I had been him I would have gone for a quickie in the laundry room since I was on my way out the door.
My H has never been married and never lived with a woman prior to us getting married 2 years ago. He was a virgin until he was 30 and had only 2 sexual partners prior to me. He isn't a guy who has been hurt by prior girlfriends or sexual relationships but he has been hurt emotionally by one woman. His Mom.
I do think he tries to control how "in love" he feels. I think it scares him to want me too much.
