I haven't done TMI Tuesday in forever, but my friend Lexi does so I think I'll start again, or maybe not, but, for now, here's one.

When it comes to sex, which of the following
do you and your partner disagree about more: Where to have sex, |
Easy one, but the last two are really the
same thing. Where?
It’s 90% in the bed, door locked. The other 5% is her getting me off in the
shower then I return the favor in bed.
The last 5% would include twice per summer outside, and then the occasional
hotel room if we are travelling with no kids, or all the kids, and get a separate
room. The couch used to see more
action, but not lately. ☹ If “When” means before or after Church or
what time to turn off the TV, then we almost never argue, but if “When” means
this month or next, then that’s a bigger issue. Frequency is the biggest disjoin, though we
rarely argue over it. It’s part of the
underlying dynamic and tension that pervades our relationship. I LOVE her body, sex, orgasms, watching/helping/making
her cum, I love the snuggles leading up to it and the laughter and clean-up
afterwards. I could do it 3-4 times a
week, but twice a month seems just fine with her. Our biggest argument is that our sexual menu
is narrowing. She’s never liked butt
stuff, she used to finger herself while we fucked but now only uses a vibrator
(which I love), she used to cum like crazy from me eating her out, but that’s
now pretty much off the list (and I miss it soo much), and she is settling
into a set routine that is fun and orgasmic (we can together on Sunday morning),
it’s a little predictable. Any yes, I really really really miss going
down on her. ☹ |
Worse
thing to do as a couple? Dieting |
OH, by far, by a mile, by an eternity, it has
to be dieting. Picking a movie – Cake Ikea – She reads in the instructions, I
build, we are done in moment flat. Dieting? Torture, murder, conflict, rage,
resentment, rolled-eyes, different goals, mismatched approaches, 50 pound
difference, and it goes on and own. I work out to lose weight, she cuts calories. She likes broccoli, cauliflower, eggplant, and other noxious weeds, while I like food. If I have chocolate, she rolls her eyes, when I invite her to a run, she declines, when she cooks spinach, I smile, pass, then have a PB&J later. We are so mismatched. NO NO NO NO. I will support her, I hide my chocolate, I
modify my menus when I cook, I will shop for just what she wants, but no, we
don’t diet together. Maybe that’s why neither one of us hits our
targets, but at least we are still married. |
