Corri,

The NOPs may have initiated a schedule, and that may have fixed the initial problem with frequency... but NOP lost the anger, was kind, was consistent... and then he lost interest.

Are you trying to say that by the HD losing interest, the LD will pick up interest and fill the void? I can see that being a theoretical possibility in some marriages, but I don’t see it in mine nor in HD’s. That’s REALLY pushing my limit of credulity.

He removed every barrier Mrs. NOP had... she learned a new respect for him... in a slightly different way... and had to look to herself.

No, she did not HAVE to look at herself, she chose to, but she could also have decided that the whole matter finally died a natural death and she could go back to living her sexless existence.

Now, I'm sure she will correct me if I'm wrong... but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it was the respect, in the end, that turned the ship.

I would agree with this, but respect for your partner as well as yourself.
