"We were chatting a little and I said "I need to let you know that we won't be able to have sex for awhile". Of course she looks and me kind of concerned and says "really, why?". So I respond, "because I gave it up for Lent". She covered her mouth and just busted up laughing. Then she said, "oh I get it, you think that'll make me want to have sex with you because I can't". I responded, "oh no, it's purely my personal choice, I know you would'nt want to have sex." So we just giggled, and then she gave me two good night kisses instead of the usual one, and she rested her head on my chest for a little bit. So I consider that progess."
