ChrisJ, SS,

Chris, as you know, I'm going thru the same as SS right now. Things have been going along ok with us too but the intimacy still isnt there as you know. We have been kissing and hugging a little more passionately lately and last night, I was actually the first to pull away from her, which hasnt happened in a long time. But I know that she holds back because she knows that if she gives too much it gets my motor running and then we both feel bad.

SS, listen to Chris. He's been there. I've noticed that when I have low expectations about our relationship and intimacy, my expectations are usually exceeded! Figure that one out! The way I figure it, as long as we enjoy each other's company, are getting along, and avoid all of the negativity that we've had over the past year, the intimacy is bound to return at some point. Hopefully....

Dave
