But I'm extremely possessive about OH in an intimate sense. I couldn't ever be one of those women who can manage to turn a blind eye.
Well..er....who said anything about turning a blind eye :A0 -

Doesn't that tend to happen anyway, even if not spending weekdays apart? Not in as extreme a fashion, perhaps, but either 2-3 times in one night, or not at all, seems pretty normal?...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

I've very rarely seen OH lost for words, but when I handed on the question, "ask your Abba!" that Isaac asked this weekend, "does it tickle when the sperm come out of your willy to fertilise Mummy?" he did look a bit hunted.
WE're trying to tread the very narrow line between making sex secret / dirty / unmentionable, and to try to imply the socially-accepted times and places to discuss it. Which is a tricky one, actually.
I think that's a very intelligent question he asked.
I think its probably fair enough to say ' there are times and places to discuss sex, if you have questions ask us, not other people and please ask at home because some people won't ave told their children yet.

Well, yes, but we tend to feel the need to fall on each other on Fridays when we might not always....and sometimes would be nice on a Wednesday, and all you have is the phone. I mean, its ok, we make it work, and in many ways it has advantages, because we tend not to have have quite a lot of good well thought out sex because we've got time to think it, instead of just lazy old habit sex because its always there.
Also, DH likes that he gets to sleep though the night a couple nights a week :rotfl: ( he takes being shaken on the shoulder and being told I'm awake quite well). Tbh, its one of the reasons our live work pattern works for us in some ways.
Dunno....just its what we have so we work it.0 -

That makes me feel better. Still feel sad about the ones that come down in a street though (quite aside from any damage, injury etc.). Though I guess there is probably some kind of underlying weakness that meant it was a matter of time...0
