Ackroyd

All I wanted was to live a simple life, stay healthy, practice my profession, and be well- and thoroughly loved. In other words, be happily married, experience intellectual adventures, and make...

I have made big changes. More of that sometime later, not right now! For now I want to say, Brenda is pretty much the way I describe her with a few little changes of course to disguise our...

I kept my goals manageable. I always wanted to hear from my wife, "That was the best sex I've ever had ever." A tiny, achievable goal. But no dice. Brenda has never said that to me, nor has she...

Today I responded to a "Female Sexual Issues" topic, "Degrading."My reply was about Brenda's enjoyment of cheating & flirting.

I already wrote about Brenda & her photographer-boyfriend (erstwhile). Well, that was too long ago to bring up just casually. Who knows where a "talk" like that would lead? I don't want to do start...

A related irritant in our marriage has been Brenda's flirtatiousness. This has become a very great annoyance. I have spoken to her about it, and I can see she has tried to control it. However, she...

One of the greatest irritants between us has been a photograph of Brenda secretly taken while we were married by a former boyfriend of hers, a professional photographer. It is not a "pornographic"...

"Brenda" is a year younger than I am, and we are compatible in many ways...However, one thing that she has always done is to mention her former male friends and sex partners. We've been married more...

Hi, Call me Ackroyd Drattit and you can call Mrs. Drattit, "Brenda." We were married over 35 years ago and have gotten along rather nicely, but of course there have been and continue to be irritants...
