Quote: Suddenly, out of the blue, she sighs a bit, reaches over to the bed side table and gabs her book, and starts reading... READING.. WTH?! When I got a bit irritated at thie sudden shift in mood, she said that she knew I didn't like to be vocally rejected and didn't want to make me feel bad, so she thought she would try something a little more subtle..
If my wife EVER did anything like that to me, I promise it would be the absolute end of my sex life with her. I'd never approach her again, and I'd never waste another minute giving "foreplay" to anybody but myself.
Well...in the above case she'd get ONE last chance. She did explain herself as trying to be "subtle." I'd let her know in no uncertain terms that that was far from subtle and was a worse slap in the face than anything she could possibly have put into words. But honestly...if she ever did anything like that again...the sexual part of our marriage would be over. From that moment on I'd refuse to entertain any feelings for her beyond what I'd have for my mother or a sister. And that would be that.
