      This is so true, and I recognize it all so well.
      So many times I have said yes to sex, just to keep the peace, or with the hope of making life just a little easier.

      And then, how can we explain it. We all do many things that we do not want to keep things well. Like I wash the house, I do the laundry etc even tough I do not feel like it, but because I want to keep it nice for my familiy. And that is okey. But how do we argue that.. sex.. is not okey. Because of the emotional impact it has,… how do we explain why that is not okey?

      Probably a stupid question, but I had this discussion with my husband and I found it so had to argue back. He meant it is okey to not always be into what you are doing, but that it is a gesture out of love. I do not always like to massage you either he says, but I do it to be nice. Why is sex such a big issue then he says, if it doesnt physically hurt.

      Help me out here, what would you answer?

      I think it sounds like an egosentric possesive guy with no respect for you. Behave!! (that was to him).

      Second I just want to share something I read about in a book in order to achieve courage, and it is so true:

      You do not live to satisfy the expectations of other people!!!

      Good luck!!

      (perhaps this is a good practice to say to him that you are just not interested in that kind of behaviour anymore)
