That makes sense NW. LOL

Ruby, you are lucky that it has never been thought of as a chore.

Don't get me wrong, I like our intimacy - but there has been a time or two in the last 13 years where I just wanted to go to sleep!

I guess a lot of people feel that way. More women than men, I suppose.

I'm not saying that I "pay" for sex every time... it's still a loving connection with my husband. But... the older we get, the less likely it is that we're both in the mood at the same time. The one NOT in the mood generally concedes to the other, within reason. Sometimes a little flirting and foreplay will get me in the mood even if I wasn't before!

But the point is... EVERYTHING is a coin in marriage. How I view it or how you do is completely different than what some other people may view it. As long as a couple agrees on what is worth how much, then the marriage flourishes. For instance... in my house, grocery shopping is MAJOR coin, because we both HATE it. Dishes, on the other hand--not so much.

I just wonder - if "hooking" was legal - would little businesses be set up in the strip mall? Would there still be street walkers? Would the cost be regulated?

I guess it depends on the law. Most countries in which it is legal have a red light district and it is regulated.

Synnen,
Wife and I call it "brownie points". If I go out after work one evening then she has one evening in the bag for herself in the near future. The sex thing is a concern since the more a marriage progresses the more the wife seems to control the sex. That annoys most men.

I 'pay' for mine by being extremely good at it! LOL ;)

Oh - this has nothing to do with anything that we have talked about - but I wanted to remind everyone that SUNDAY is Mother's Day. Don't forget your Mom or Wife!
