OK, so my wife's always been very supportive of me. She really appreciates when I scratch her--she says it feels practically ORGASMIC when I give her a good scratch behind the butt cheeks. In fact, it actually sounds like she's really, really enjoying it.
In the bathroom, whenever I wipe her private parts--I don't know if all women do that, but it seems to make sense--she smiles and says "good job" and laughs and gives me a little peck on the cheek. We always joke a lot.
Sometimes, when she just can't lift her fork anymore, and I feed her (we're always at restaurants for every meal) she looks sad, but she never gets mad.
She even arranged for my respite, which is to say that the VA would take her into the VA Living Center while I went on vacation. I haven't. Can't imagine leaving her for even a day.
Then, once, while watching a TV ad for a movie, she said to me that IT WOULD BE ALRIGHT WITH HER IF I GOT A "FRIEND WITH BENEFITS." She said she felt bad that she couldn't meet my needs anymore, and wanted me to feel free. Hmmm. So I jokingly asked her if she had someone in mind. Ha ha. But I think she was serious.
Coincidentally, a married woman (and nurse) I haven't seen since the Class of '73 emailed me from a thousand miles away to say she had a friend who could arrange a nice hotel room at the airport in her city if I needed a respite. And, oh by the way, her marriage isn't all that good and SHE ALWAYS HAD A CRUSH ON ME. Even named one of her kids after me. Hmmm. Again. Hmmm.
SO THERE IT IS. Let's vote. What's a good respite idea? Anybody tried out respite? Does it work?
