I realize this is a few days old but wanted to comment to Scott on this:

The other night laying in bed I told her that I wanted to kiss her, and her response was "Why?". How sad.




I will say this. Someone saying that to me makes me feel put on the spot and uncomfortable. If you want to kiss me, then KISS ME, don't tell me you want to. The only exception to that would be a first date/first kiss kind of thing where you do need to take the temperature of the date first.

How do you reply to a statement like that? I'm NOT LD and the statement makes me uncomfortable because it makes me feel like you just gave me a huge job and I don't know where to start with it because you just threw it on me.

IMHO, if you want to kiss your wife, just kiss your wife, don't tell her you want to kiss her and then put the entire burden of what to do next or finding the right thing to say on her shoulders. I do think this is a personality difference, not necessarily anything to do with LD/HD. Only a certain type of personality would be able to effectively respond to a statement like that and not feel like a fool.
