Hi HP I've been thinking about this very issue lately myself and I am sort of coming to some acceptance (defeat?) that the amazing EC and SL we aspire to with our S may never be possible or really live up to our expectations...ever. And I'm not being "poor me" about it. Just more realistic. Is it really possible to keep a strong EC with the same person for a life time? I'm not just saying a happy M, that is certainly possible. But maybe we are all shooting too high????? Not sure where I really stand on this all yet. Just throwing it out there.
