Christine's relationship rescue
I know some people who have reached the tipping point in their 20 plus year union and have made the decision to "shake things up a bit". I don't know if it will work or backfire but it makes me nervous. I guess I am old fashioned and don't really care for complicating my life-maybe that's exactly what I neeed though, a more complicated life. I get anxious whenever the status quo is threatened in my life and resist change (all the while craving it-go figure). Maybe it's the suspicion that if I've got troubles I know that there ain't a soul out there who can attend to them but me and I think that this couple is going about it ass backwards and will end up making mistakes from which they cannot recover. I am no relatioinship expert but the people who stay happily together really just seem to like each other alot and care for the other's wellness and opinion. It seems simple enough to me if you can get that simplicity to stick in your head when you start to try to complicate things as we all tend to do in this culutre. Is it possible to still like someone after 20 years of crap?

There is a difference btwn 20 years of real honest to goodness CRAP and 20 years of average relationship ups and downs with no change in sight.
Many people live in "open" relationships-and I'm not sure if they're such a bad thing BUT...you must know that you can never go back. All that normal, average, boring security, familiarity and knowingness....kiss that shit goodbye forever. Say hello to some new dude's bum zits and inaccurate cunnilingus methods.
I've worked too long on perfecting my blowjob. That alone is worth staying bored for.
Love LP's answer. I still like my husband, even though I left him, still love him too. I don't think more choices make us any happier, at least not me. I thought I would be happier away from him, I'm not. I'm still pretty much the same. I don't know what the answer is.
