I am currently not getting "all" the sex I want, but it's close enough and I'm quite happy.




Then we're in complete agreement. All I was saying is that it was important to figure out what "close enough" or "good enough" was for me sexually within the context of whatever else is going on in my life. I'm certainly okay with 24 hours of celibacy. I'm certainly not okay with the thought of lifelong celibacy. Am I or can I be okay with the thought or the reality of a couple weeks of celibacy if my H's not in the mood for whatever reason? Would I be okay for a couple monthes? If I'm not, what are my choices in dealing with this? I've found that, for me, initiating sex is not a good choice to make in this situation and it doesn't become a better choice no matter how long I go without sex, though it obviously becomes a more tempting choice.
