Quote: It was a lovely night...as far as H adoring me, well, it's more like " I can't seem to rid myself of her and she can't rid herself of me so let's make the best of things," lol.
LOL- Congratulations! I can appreciate your above quote because it reminds me so much of where I find myself in my marriage also on one of our more functional days. My H and I have sort of developed a habit of resolving fights by saying "let's just try to be kind to each other".
I do want to apologize for getting in your face on my thread. Imagine if Mark Twain and Virginia Woolf were contemporaries and Mark Twain had to write a review of one of Virginia Woolf's novels and entitled it "The Dry River Bed of Consciousness of Mr. Dalloway.". The frustration of being married to someone who is very intoverted and inward-gazing is that I sometimes feel like my own interior life is something "outside" of my H that doesn't have any importance. Therefore, I want to see the character that is your husband more fully developed in your writing of the story of your marriage/life. For instance, we have been friends/co-participants in this BB for years now and I only learned very recently that your H is thin. I've been imagining him as a man with a rather muscular build, like an ex-quarteback who kept in shape after high school. Okay, I guess what he looks like is besides the point. I want to know his dreams, aspirations, disappointments, likes/dislikes, habits, FOO history etc. etc. Make him interesting to me as a character and I bet you'll make him sexier to you as a lover. I sincerely hope that I am expressing myself in a way that is helpful rather than critical.
