was my former BF coming over here and I actually smelled sex on him. At 10:30 in the morning. Was shocked and didn't say anything at the time. But, do men honestly believe that they can be with someone and not have the evidence all over them? Honestly, they can be such big babies. Sometimes, we are big babies, too, when we allow them to get away with it. Just how much a person is willing to invest in the relationship is the key.
Men and women do not look at sex and love in the same way. Women love with their hearts, men maybe more with their heads (in more ways than one.)
For some men, lying comes as natural as breathing. It always seemed to me that lying just takes up so much time and energy. You have to remember what you said to whom and just try to keep the story straight. Maybe it is the challenge of getting caught and being able to get out of it. Whew! That was a close one. But, see, I must be smarter than her, because I got off.
Ultimately, it is the liar who loses. You lose the love and support of your loved one. Love just doesn't suddently die. It can be a slow thing. Being with a person takes work and the decision that you want to make it work out.
Marriage is not made in Heaven and is not a bed of roses (my dad used to say that) and I think sexual love in the beginning is sort of like that. It is the decision to make it work that makes it worth the journey for most of us.
