Listener Question:

I would like physical intimacy to be a journey that we go on together.  I compare it to traveling, there is this big world out there and I want to go visit these destinations with my wife.  I want to go on a journey and see stuff with her, not by myself or with somebody else.  I want to communicate about, explore, experiment, and figure out that journey together...She always asks me when is it enough, why isn’t what we do good enough.  And I say that it's not about the act, it's about the journey and exploring this together.  In the last 6 years, she has been a willing participant in just about anything I ask to do...this week I started to let go of this hope.  I told her that I would be affectionate, and do the things that she wanted to do but I would no longer pursue and push her to have sex.  That I would always be here if she ever wanted to go on that journey with me.
