It's just difficult to state this without what my boss calls "a running start." He uses this to describe the use of extra words at the beginning of a sentence, e.g., "Having said that, one must then proceed to..." or "As a matter of fact..." etc.
So, you want me to turn to her, without any context, without responding to anything she has said or done and just state, "I want to make love to you once a week."
Hdog and Ms.Hdog, watching "Grey's Anatomy". Hdog picks up the remote (they, of course, have a DVR, which creates a strange anticipation of being able to pause, fast forward, and rewind everything in one's world), and pushes "pause". Ms.Hdog turns to him, with a questioning look on her face. Hdog: I want to make love with you once a week. He pushes "play", sets the remote back down, sits back, and watches the rest of the episode.
See what I mean? It's just awkward.
If there's no other way to do it, I'll endure. I agree with you, in retrospect, about my earlier post.
Oh, and I knew that about "reiterate."
You know her too well. Your dialogue, even though you're trying to funny, is just plain creepy.
