Even if we had not just shared the incredible experience of bringing a new life into this world, I could whole-heartedly, unreservedly say that I am absolutely head over heels in love with my wife. No one has ever made me feel the way that she does, I want to spend all of my time with her, I miss her terribly when we're apart, and my heart skips a beat/melts every time she shares her smile with me.
Of course...now she has a rival for my heart, but that's a non-romantic rival

We grow at different rates, bent by different experiences in life. Not necessarily better branches, but different. It is a miracle if you still feel the same butterflies.
I don't believe in miracles.
I do believe that life's commitments are important and have value. And, I believe life is just wonderful, keeps getting better, and is imperfect.

Find some common ground, that is new and exciting. Do something together on a weekend and get back into each other...That's what we do to keep it livley.
I take it your kids are old enough for the two of you to take time out for each other. I can't tell you what to do, just that you need to do it...Good luck!

Well, Brat, if anyone has any real advice on that, they probably haven't actually lived it and found the answer. There probably is no way to change the rate, you certainly don't want to slow your rate of change down. You wouldn't in fairness expect nor want the other to either slow down now do you expect him to speed up, cause if he could he would have already done it.
Maybe you just keep making your branch more beautiful. If you are lucky, your life growth brings wisdom and you can find things which can be made beautiful to the other branch too. It really means that you have to change something about you or about what you do, because there is nothing you can do to change the other person other than change the environment in which he lives, of which you are a major tree. If it is worth the effort, find some ornament which attract him like berries on a tree attracts birds to the tree? Maybe on the way he will find something that looks better to you too and you can intertwine some branch way out there on the tip.
Sorry, feels like we are touring Morton Arboretum, eh?
Gee I like your questions though. Love them, really.

You run to catch up...and do what ever it takes to to find what you lost....and don't let it out of sight again.
There have been many times when "LIFE" has pushed romance and that "connection" in the background...fortunately my husband is much better at keeping his eye on it than I am. It is so easy to get so wrapped up in ourselves that we forget about "Us". I have been in a bad marriage so I know what it is like to be so diconnected that it is easier to just turn around and walk the other way(there were many more problems than just losing touch).I know without a doubt that I will never be faced with that again because this marriage is to important to let it slip.It all comes down to choices and perspective.

Yes!
Yes oh yes brat ...
In fact, more each day, more each night.
More each time I touch her, brush against her in the kitchen, reach for her in the night.
More each time our eyes meet, at the whimsy of a child, over coffee. - eeffoc me please!*wink*
More each time we hold hands, walking in the woods, riding in the car.
More each time I recall our history, our present, our future.
No advice here brat, just an answer to your question and a hope for you to have same -

Oh dear, I hate it, but someone has to ask. With all of you so completely entrhalled with that person upstairs, how can you spare the time to sit down here at your computer reaching out for, presumably, us other erotic beings? Why aren't you upstairs holding hands?

If you want/need to know why I'm here, read my thread "It's my pleasure to introduce..." The fact that so many people have taken the time to respond to that posting of mine is why I come back here time and time again.
As for your comment that presumably most/many of the people here are reaching out for other erotic beings, I'd have to respectfully disagree. Many of us enjoy sharing erotic thoughts, stories and comments with others of a like mind, but I don't think I would say that most, some certainly, but not most, of the people who post on the board are trying to find a significant other, partner, mate, from the board. If they do, then I've been completely clueless.

"Charly is my darlin..."
Why, thank you, Charly!
PapaOSafety - Exactly. I, rather, we enjoy the erotic elements of this place, enjoy reading and writing, along with the company of others who share our interests. It's fun, and titillating, and ever so erotic when shared...

I accept and respect your comment. No offense was intended.
However, I did not mean to imply that any of the respondents is here actually looking for a significant other. Far from it. Nor am I. I only meant that being upstairs with those so glowingly described must surely be more rewarding than the mental exercises here offered. Though, I agree that those pleasures of the mind are in many ways very satisfying.
So, perhaps I have answered my own question. I haven't read your thread yet, thanks for the invitation.

Thank you, I think I had misunderstood your original post, but things are much clearer now. I wasn't offended earlier, just thought some things needed to be clarified.
BTW...my thread is actually titles "My chance to introduce..."
