In the book, Grown-Up Marriage: What We Know, Wish We Had Known, and Still Need to Know About Being Married, author Judith Viorst says, "A grown-up marriage allows one to find a balance between autonomy and connection."
In other words, you need a girls' night out.
Seriously. We can't do everything with our man all of the time. It's important that both members of the relationship feel free to have different likes and interests. Husband can prove his manhood in a game of basketball and you can go watch America's Next Top Model with the girls. Be silly and let loose. When you come home at the end of the night he'll feel masculine and you'll feel feminine. You can show off what you've learned from your girls' night and strut down the hall in your favorite bra and panties.
You'll feel sexy, I promise.
P.S. A dollar says he won't even notice the fat roll :)

ReplyDeleteThrilled that FINALLY someone is talking boldly - but respectfully - about how red hot monogamy was intended to be. Rock on, sista!
