Just a PSA.

Ditto, and most women appreciate that. However, the current gf wants words all the time and doesn't look at the action. I don't know if it would be easier if I said the L word, but 4 months in, I'm not ready. Besides, it probably wouldn't be said back, and then what?

How do you break a pevis? Dr Mitch had one story of something broken in action and it sounded excruciatingly painful.

See what you did? I was cranky and tired and told my husband what I felt, and we didn't talk for the rest of the night.

I agree with this sentiment.

I just think for some people that are or have been emotionally repressed due to their childhood upbringing, being verbal and "open" is much harder for some people. The old "stiff upper lip" where you aren't allowed to show emotions many people have been raised with that and just turning it off can be hard....

Yeah, but the thing is, you can't tell hubby to take a long walk off a short pier and not have him get fussy.....

It says on m.d. that you can fracture it with a strong force. Stay away from Hawaiiancoconut, lol.
