13. Maybe if you lost some weight
This was one of the suggestions from my wife, who is herself overweight. We've both lost weight, it makes no difference. However it does help your own confidence and health so it's not really a waste, just didn't do anything for the sex life.

10. I am so tired at work, maybe if you said it was ok for me to stop working things would get better 11. I hate this house maybe if you agreed to move things would get better 12. I hate the cold weather maybe if you took us on holiday somewhere sunny, things would get better These three had been the bulk of my "why chasing" campaign. For me these were my "What chases" - as a result of these what's she stopped work for several "breaks" of up to 6mths-1yr at a time, we moved 3 times ending up in a 3000sqft barn I designed myself and worse of all, emigrated to a warmer climate for a while.... In the pursuit of passion and sex, the denied never learns their lessons LOL

14) God hates divorce! ( then the associate pastor whispers in my ear- "I got divorced in my early 20's")

16.) Everyone knows that men want sex a lot more than women. My experience with women supports this stereotype. Admittedly this is from a control group of 1.

m76 "loose some weight..." My last year of marriage, my wife bought us a family gym membership. I was the only one that made good use of it, and I got in great shape. It didn't help our bedroom, at all, but it did give me the confidence I needed. I highly recommend doing this. Take the steps you need to do to become your best. But, do it for you, not your spouse.

ROFL.... uh if I was in the control group it would flip to 50/50. I cant decide if thats better or worse. Knowing what your dealing with has some merit and lowers expectations.

"You gotta keep trying!"
My well-meaning younger brother. Dont even get me started on his marriage which I never give him my opinion on. Not my business.

17. Schedule sex.
I don’t know how many times after an argument about this how often she suggests we schedule it. It lasts maybe a week at best. She even put it on our shared calendar and I just deleted it because I don’t need the constant reminder of how little she cares about it.
