Probably because it's a great default
position to start in.

Of course.

I like this technique ALOT, and I think
it has great application in all relationships.
Fortunately, we don't tell each other what
to do very often.

I especially like this.

Of course. An HSE woman won't stay powerless
in a relationship, by definition.

Of course.

I go further here. Sex is a favor I grant
her. I know what she likes, how she likes it,
and if she isn't more or less supplicating
for it, I don't put out. This works because
our drives are well matched, and I spend
my energy increasing attraction rather than
supplicating.

This is not news to me, nor news to anyone
I know. Once married, on average, good
sex goes away.

Yep. I see this happening all the time.

"intra" is the prefix here, but you are correct.

She has already decided we need some "space,"
which I am more than happy to provide.

I make myself go through withdrawal symptoms
at least twice a month to acclimate myself
to the emotion. This is letting me keep
my sanity about me. I think she may be
doing this herself.

I think she is doing this to me also.
She told me once that I am the first
guy she has met that didn't "weird out"
on her. She isn't really totally LSE,
but with respect to relationships, she
has a track record of picking "project"
type guys. My guess is that she prefers
to be in control of the relationship, but
ends up losing attraction to these guys
pretty fast. Unfortunately, at age 41,
even project AFCs her age are losing
interest.
>Insta-fuckbuddy. Of course, she will >soon figure it out, and go apeshit, but
Maybe, maybe not. Women can be amazingly
flexible, and have no vested interest in
keeping their word about anything. If
the idea were presented in such a way that
it was the most emotionally reasonable way
to proceed, she would insist on it.

I think this is an age thing. Women in
their 40s, faced with decreasing prospects
all around, may very well be satisfied to
have a piece of something that is damn
good, rather than having 100% of something
really shitty. 1/3 of a player can give
a women much more emotional and sexual
validation than the average whole hubby.
Thus the basis of PlayerSupreme's whole
game, and harem of 35-45 yo hotties.
The difference is this: back a couple of
months ago when I was a "lover" she would
joke around about "sharing" me with her
hottie girlfriends. Now, if I bring this
up as a joke, she gets very upset. She
brought it up first! In hindsight, I
now know this was a test. I think I said
something like "social circle is off-limits."
