Quote: You definitely make a compelling point and I think that you're probably right on the money with respect to the assertive, confident, playful attitude being a lot more appealing than the "wimpy" (for lack of a better word) alternative. The sad part is that, even as I write this, I could easily display the very attitude that you've described with another woman (hypothetically speaking of course), but after years of rejection and a general lack of interest from my own wife, I no longer think of her as sexy and playful. I know - that could very well be as much my fault as hers, but it's still sad nonetheless.
Sooner, you make a great point. A lot of us read posts like Stig's, and Blackfoot's, and others, and we not only KNOW that stuff is true, we not only KNOW it works, but WE'VE EVEN DONE IT BEFORE -- often even with this same LD/ND woman lying next to us!
But we are just too damned tired and rejected to keep up that fight.
Would it work? Maybe. But I just don't care to try it anymore, at least not with her.
