Honor your significant other always!

I was at dinner tonight, observing people and listening to conversations around me, much like I do at every meal, and a particular conversation really bothered me.  A group of men were talking, and one was telling the others how forgetful his wife or girlfriend is.  She would talk about how good a movie was that they had just seen and how much she liked it.  He would remind her that they had seen it before and she would say she didn't remember ever seeing it.  He then bragged about how he uses this to his advantage.  His example was that he never buys her flowers and when she makes a remark about it he replies, "Yes I did, just the other day but you just don't remember it like you don't remember most things." She would say, "I guess I do forget a lot of things" and his buddies laughed and congratulated him for having a Barbie brain for a girl.  I felt sorry for the girl, for being in a relationship with such a dick. And I was angry at the friends for re-enforcing his behavior.  We men should never expose our significant others weaknesses to our friends or co-workers; I mean never ever.  It doesn't honor them in any way, and would more than likely crush their spirit if they were aware we were talking about them that way.

Honor your relationship by not blasting your spouse's weakness.

Great Sexpectations

Most of us have certain expectations in relationships, whether that relationship is with a friend, co-worker, roommate, lab partner, or family member. Sometimes we're not even aware of the expectations we have, yet many of the challenges we encounter stem from those expectations being unmet. Unfortunately something as electrifying and amazing as sex isn't immune to this type of situation.

Did you expect to have sex several times a week because that's what you were used to? And now that you're down to only twice a month, are you frustrated and confused? Maybe feeling rejected somehow?

Did you expect your husband to rub your back without it leading to sex?

Were you disappointed because your wife only wanted her back rubbed when she asked you to rub her back?

A friend told me once that he knew without a doubt he made his wife feel like a million bucks one night and he was sure she was going to want a repeat the next night. He was disappointed to find out she wasn't interested. But he was crushed when she wasn't interested for another week! He couldn't understand why she didn't share his "you can't have too much of a good thing" philosophy.

Are your sexpectations being met? Do you know what your partner's sexpectations are? Do you think you're meeting them? Have you asked?

In the next post, I'm going to talk about why taking Sexams are vital to the health and wealth of your sex life.
