Powerful emotional times really trigger increased sexual desire in me. Do you ever notice this, too? DH and I haven’t really had much alone time together at all in the last month. Well, we haven’t had much time together period with situations in life, but we both have noticed that when we are apart, we really desire each other more. What’s that old saying about “absence makes the heart grow fonder?” I don’t think about anything but work when I am at work, but I have noticed lately that I can tell that I desire him so much more when I am at work. Kissing him is so much more passionate, and so different for the better now. I can be sitting here on the computer, writing an article or reading my Facebook account, and all of the sudden…there it is. That stirring that tells me that I NEED him now. Oh, I’ve just got to tell him! Too bad he’s over an hour away… 😦
Like I said, my DH and I are going through some highly stressful family situations with our parents right now. Two big whammos all happening at the same time. We’ve both been highly emotional, we’ve both been highly stressed, but at the same time, we’ve made some life changing realizations. We really need each other more than we realized. It’s made us realize that we don’t always treat each other right. It’s made is realize that we need to have more grace with each other. It’ s made us realize that when one of us is weak, the other is strong. It’s made me realize that he depends on ME to be his rock. AND it’s made us realize that sex is an awesome stress reliever! I cannot believe how much more I want him right now. How much I need him sexually and how sexually fulfilling releasing stress can be.
We have a new marriage right now. It’s amazing and incredible and we just can’t believe how much happier we are, too, at the same time. We now have unlimited texting, so it is nice to be able to send him a love note, an encouragement, or a “I’ll see you naked in the backyard tonight!” It gives him something to look forward to. It give me something to look forward to. It’s a wonderful feeling to know our 15th wedding anniversary is right around the corner, and our marriage is stronger than ever.
We’re turning a new corner in our marriage, and we feel like God is truly blessing us in this season of our lives amidst the turmoil that seems all around us. Thank you, Lord, for always being there…especially when we need you most…
