Quote: We have a nice time together, but it's sort of like just being best friends. The affection feels forced
This is exactly how I feel and frankly it is not what I want for my M. Yes, I want us to be best friends but I also want more. I know you get what you give but it is hard to give affection when the recipient acts cold and rigid.
I know you and your wife have discussed this, and as you know from my thread that I am contemplating this same conversation; I just don't know how.
