A couple different times when I was younger a woman gave me "the clap". Trust me, you don't want that.....

And why should it feel weird? Is she like 22 or something? Don't read more into it than her simply wanting to say "Thanks" in person, and maybe buy you an adult beverage. Play it by ear just in case it is more.

I can't remember how long you've been divorced but I think most people need some distance from their exes for a while so they can heal and reclaim their own lives. I'd think that would be even harder to do if you live in the same area and go to the same church. We have been divorced now roughly 7 yrs. During that time I have done a # of "honey do" type things for her that saved her hundreds of dollars. When she was in the hospital for kidney stones I looked to her needs there. We used to catch a movie or a meal together, going Dutch on the costs. But it seems that as she has accumulated wealth, she has less interest in maintaining any sort of friendship. Too bad. I will respect what seems to be her wishes and temper my efforts at friendship.

My X has taken a big hit in my assessment of her worth as a person. I have been trying to remain a good and decent friend to her. but it is obvious to me at this point that she places little value on my friendship. She never calls me just to talk. She does not initiate a conversation at church. She really seems to be going to some length to avoid talking with me. In retrospect I don't think I have seen her talk to any male at church in years. In a effort to rekindle the friendship I ask her out for a meal. She agreed, but the meal was a bust. She immediately separated from me at the buffet and hurried to the table to eat. She wolfed down her food without waiting for me to join her and without speaking. After watching her demolish the food I did manage to get a conversation going. To my surprise she just wanted to talk about how much money she has accumulated now. Then she seemed in a hurry to leave. Turns out she wanted to get home for football. After a few minutes I just said goodnight and headed home. I think it's time for me to stop wasting my efforts on the friendship.

Welcome jameson68,...You may not find a member who's posts exactly mirror you own experiences in your marriage. But if you keep reading then you should find enough of other's experiences to hopefully be of some value. Good luck in your reading and again, welcome...'

A few thoughts as I read through this thread. If you are going to dabble... Sorry but what is OPSEC??
I like the advice on taking it slow and having a list of do's and don'ts. I need to think it through carefully, especially now I know that he would prefer we divorce rather than have me outsource. I don't think I want to outsource without his 'blessing' or at least his acceptance of my occasional, discrete affairs.
You are unlikely to ever have his "blessing" when it comes to outsourcing. Instead, if you are considering outsourcing, to whatever degree, probably the most realistic possibility would be a "don't ask, don't tell" understanding. Notice I said understanding, not agreement. I'm thinking his pride would preclude him ever approving of another man between your legs. You know your H best. Do you really think he would initiate a divorce if he though or suspected you were seeing someone else? Or is he forcing you into compliance with his view of no sex with the threat of his preference of divorce? And divorce is a distinct possibility. My X preferred divorce to the thought of another woman in picture that would shame her if anyone found out about it.

And now I am worried. One of my grandchildren has tested positive for COVID. Just what I was afraid of with their returning to school. One of their grandmothers tested positive over the weekend and they have been in close contact with her. So now I have been in close contact with him yesterday in my home. Crap... Two days later...how is everybody? Omicron is supposed to be relatively mild. Hopefully grandma got jabbed? Unless she's immunocompromised, vaccination is still very good at keeping you out of the ICU, even at the two year mark. You say you have risk factors. Any numbers on how folks like yourself do when vaxxed, like you are? Youngest grandson is doing well. symptoms are mild. Now granddaughter has it also. The whole family on d-i-l side of the family has Covid, probably where my grandson picked it up. School will re-admit them on Monday and so will I. Transmission odds should be pretty much over by then. As to my risk factors and #of folks who do well or who expire. Hard to say as I have 4 of the 5 risk factors shared by those who die. I like to say I would fight a circular saw, but I can see that coming at me. Covid I can't see coming.

That’s always my question to her…if intercourse isn’t enjoyable, what about engaging in some other intimate acts? I don’t like everything that you like but I do it for you vacations plays movies etc…. It doesn’t hurt you to provide manual or oral stimulation every now and then. It doesn’t have to be your favorite. Even if she just wanted to be in the same room with me while I got to know myself a little bit… that would be something. So you don’t enjoy it in the same way I do. Fine it doesn’t have to be every day. But maybe once a week you can pretend that it’s important? And if she pretended it was important, would you be happy with that response from her? Knowing she was faking, that it's just a sham, how would that work for you really?

Kamala cries out "The boarder is absolutely secure" while crowd surfing over caravan of illegals walking across the boarder.... E-verify, baby. Everything else is lip service. There is no E-verifying this. It is satire from Babylonian Bee. Of course, we all know the countless hours she has spent at the border dealing with the influx of illegals. What a trooper !!!
