168. It's not that difficult

Sun Jul 20, 2014, 04:43 PM

Jul 2014

In someone wants their partner to participate in sex more often, they need only find a way to make sex enjoyable and satisfying for their partner. When someone thinks turning up 20 minutes early is evidence there was plenty of time for sex, that explains to me quite clearly why his wife isn't interested. I don't know why anyone would want to have sex with someone who thinks 20 minutes is plenty of time. I would appear that his entire focus is himself. Doing so is certain to make one a bad lover.

I think it's a joke, number one cwydro Jul 2014 #166

I side with the person who doesn't keep spreadsheets CreekDog Jul 2014 #174

He sent her the spreadsheet, she posted it on Reddit. n/t tammywammy Jul 2014 #183

She was the one who posted it to Reddit, not him. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #187

I side with her, he's an asshole who thinks he's owed sex CreekDog Jul 2014 #193

She's just as wrong, sorry. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #194

Provoked, and not sorry CreekDog Jul 2014 #212

Then she's just as immature. Never sorry. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #216

Yes,it is! freshwest Jul 2014 #434

Hahaha!! Oh my gawd so true! As a connoisseur of many men before I married riderinthestorm Jul 2014 #260

Her problem is that she's not perfect. betsuni Jul 2014 #223

"She does all the housework, laundry, cooking." redqueen Jul 2014 #225

According to her. She could be lying to garner support. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #238

And *he* could be lying a about her "excuses", and you've been all over this thread redqueen Jul 2014 #246

I concede that the husband could be just as full of shit as the wife. No doubt about it. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #285

I think it likely he is telling the truth BainsBane Jul 2014 #249

Perhaps she never cared to communicate what pleases her. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #286

I come to that conclusion based on his remark that they were 20 minutes early for dinner BainsBane Jul 2014 #293

So a husband a wife having a "quickie" at lunch MUST be because he can't perform. Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #298

That isn't the context of this discussion BainsBane Jul 2014 #307

Do you have personally experience with her clitoral region? Darkhawk32 Jul 2014 #309

I don't think DU actually wants to execute the guy. NaturalHigh Jul 2014 #312

Needs to pickup a book, "Sex For Dummies!" RKP5637 Jul 2014 #275

she talked to you, made you aware. he stomped off and wrote it on a spread sheet. see a difference? seabeyond Jul 2014 #423

how do you know he didn't talk about and got no where? samsingh Jul 2014 #425

i did not declare i did know. i did say, she appeared surprised. seabeyond Jul 2014 #429

why assume he didn't? samsingh Jul 2014 #435

I am not assuming he did not cause I do not know. I stated the wife seabeyond Jul 2014 #442

that surprise/unaware is the problem samsingh Jul 2014 #456
