I've been married to my husband for almost 40 years, but things have stagnated in the bedroom lately. I stumbled on your Deep Dive episode on marital sex (by divine intervention I think). Then yesterday, I heard you talking to a caller about the same topic of being your husbandβs "girlfriend.β My female stubbornness kicked in quite hard. Yes, I can be that women who thinks, βWhy isn't he paying attention to me? And why am I always the one who has to try?β But I settled down and continued to listen.
I put your advice into action yesterday evening, and I forgot how easy it was to please my husband. I greeted him back home with a kiss, some delicious dinner, and we watched baseball together. You advised your caller to wait 24 hours and βsee what happens." It didn't take quite that long for me! I woke up this morning at 5:30, heard the word "girlfriend" and said yes to my husbandβs advances. Itβs been some time since he made the first move.
Iβm proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks. Thank you for all the hard work you do. I will continue being my husbandβs girlfriend because he DESERVES it.
