Let me please clairfy that Uptown stated that he has NOT cheated on his SO, nor does he condone it . . . as you can see in the cheating thread if you refer to it, Uptown was merely bringing up the interesting point of how lack of sex and affection affects marriages, i don't think he LITERALLY meant his SO treats him like a toy or vice versa . . . it was merely an illustration of his feelings . . . which i think are reflected by many people . . . Uptown has appeared to me in all his posts as an upstanding and honorable husband . . .
I myself do not think of my SO as a toy either of course . . . he is my best friend and our marriage is not based on sex . . . I just posted this thread to get a pulse on what the TFP community felt about this topic . . .
this thread was meant to illustrate, not be taken literally . . . although perhaps i should have clarified that right from the beginning . . . my bad, sorry!
Please continue this discussion . . .
I think the real point Uptown was trying to get at . . .
Is if you don't wish to touch your spouse at all or please them or have intimate contact with them . . . What implications does that have in a marriage??
thanks everyone!!
