Wife Dreams of Sex
As I returned from the gym, my wife was working on her laptop in the family room. But she seemed in a good mood, and was talkative. But she had more work to do, and due to her work schedule, she had not had a shower since Friday. So i wouldn't be getting too close until after her shower. I waited around for awhile, working in my office, until finally I went to wash the gym sweat off. Since my wife didn't come upstairs, I went ahead and got dressed.
Only much later did my wife realize I had showered and dressed. And she got a disappointed look on her face. After some playful banter about what we each wanted to do, she went to take her shower. And much later, when she was finished, I went upstairs to greet her coming out of the bathroom. So apparently our disagreements were behind us.
There was one brief discussion of it. When she mentioned being upset over my criticism, I asked her why my pointing out something that bothered me was constantly criticizing, whereas when she points out things I do that bother her it is evidence of her new found confidence and assertiveness; something to be proud of. When she mentioned it was because I was so often critical, I pointed out that I didn't think I was all that critical anymore (I'm not) and she agreed that she had been the brunt of much criticism at work the past week or two and was more sensitive. So it was nice to get that out of the way before going upstairs.
Then this morning, my wife mentioned having a dream. In her dream, I woke her up at 11:00 and we had sex. In fact, I woke her up at 10:30 and we were done by 11:00. It was a one-sided quickie, with me the main beneficiary. And we were both so groggy that neither one of us remembers exactly how it happened. I think she woke me when she came back from saying goodnight to our daughters. I recall her cuddling and making sounds that suggested she wanted sex. And I think that by the time I finally woke up, she had started to drift off to sleep. And instead of going back to sleep myself, I pushed the sex thing a little more forcefully than I normally would. And she was much more receptive to it than she normally is. What ever happened, it was fun and didn't seem too inconvenient for her.
And as an added benefit, we were both in good moods this morning.
