I want him to want me. How does one make another want them? I can't change his hormones. I can't change his persnickety personality. Neither can he.


This is why I found Lust for Life's experience so fascinating. She said her H has always been LD, but the experience of not being with her, of being on his own, made him decide to change.

Your H can behave like an HD person and he can also behave like an LD person, but which is he INSIDE? Even now, when he's initiating sexual contact, is he truly LD inside and is only doing it because you're pulling back?

Could your H, if sufficiently motivated make the decision to become HD, or is LfL's H an anomaly that needs to be written up in Science magazine right after we give him a medal from this board?
