Tonight my wife asked me if we are going to have romance time this weekend. I tell her sure, we can do that. (It’s been 2 weeks since our last dreadful episode) Then she asks me how I am going to woo her.

I’m sorry, but I’m NOT going to put any additional significant effort in after multiple head and foot massages, conversations, and affirmations of my love for the 5-10 minutes that makes up our dreadful sex life. It lacks any passion, depth, growth, or sexual intimacy. Why would I put in additional effort for the worst 5-10 minutes of my week?

I spent 8 years wooing her to get to 5-10 minutes (1-2 times a month) that I deeply dread.

I wish I could see her in a sexual way, but after 8 years of no growth or deepening of our sexual intimacy, I just look at her as a roommate who I cuddle with. God this is going to suck.
