I recently read a very liberating book. Allen Carr’s EASYWAY To Stop Smoking. And it helped me kick a lifetime habit – nail biting. Might seem like nothing to you, but nothing else I’ve tried has stopped me. This finally did it, and I became a non-biter. His Bio reads: Allen Carr (1934-2006) was a chain-smokerContinue reading “The End of Addiction”

Sex Goals
When we got married, we were each the only sexual parter either of us had experienced (still are). We had high hopes for our sexual experiences together. Unfortunately these hopes died within the first few days of our honeymoon and were left dormant for many years while we floundered around in our marriage. (If you’veContinue reading “Sex Goals”
You’re not gonna like this…
“You’re not gonna like this…”, Tim began bravely, “but I think it might be a good idea.” We were discussing the likelihood of getting our extension started this side of next year. A touchy topic on its own, and anyone starting out with “You’re not gonna like this” was likely to be shut down, hard.Continue reading “You’re not gonna like this…”
I need ACTION, not talk!
In 2013 I had been married 8 years. I had a carpenter husband, but was living in a one-bedroom apartment that he would not extend. He wasn’t very interested in sex, it didn’t matter what I did, or how often I asked him what he liked, he could tell me nothing. He stopped kissing me.Continue reading “I need ACTION, not talk!”
The Right Sacrifice
What if our relationships are failing, not through lack of love or effort on either part, but because of our failure to make the right sacrifice?
Sexual Feedback For The Faint-Hearted
I always wished that Tim would be more passionate in the bedroom. For many many years our inability to give and receive sexual feedback drastically hindered the passion in our sexual intimacy. As we’ve shared before, during our early sexual encounters my way of giving feedback was too blunt for Tim and as my resentmentContinue reading “Sexual Feedback For The Faint-Hearted”
Overcoming the Two Sources of Conflict in Relationships
This morning I initiated love-making with Tim. It was quick and easy for both of us, which was lovely. He said to me afterwards, as he often does, “I love you”. Sweet, right? Not to me! I reluctantly said “I love you, too”, but in my head I’m like, “Whatever, I know. But HOW WASContinue reading “Overcoming the Two Sources of Conflict in Relationships”
What kind of fool?
I’ve always prided myself on being smart. One step ahead of the game. I see what’s coming, nothing surprises me. I understand how it all works. Usefully, I applied this tool to my marriage. I knew all about my husband. He was a kind, caring, sensitive guy, who saw my heart. I loved that aboutContinue reading “What kind of fool?”
He Did Nothing
We had COVID the last two weeks. So, no sex for two weeks. And plenty of bickering. But, wait a minute, why no sex? Well…maybe because we were sick? Not really very sick. We made love again the other night and I made myself say what was in my heart – how much I’d missedContinue reading “He Did Nothing”
