I get up early every morning to go to work, in order to provide for the needs of my wife and children. My "mood" has nothing to do with it. If I followed my "mood", then I would be home in the basement playing video games. Instead, I do what's necessary to provide for the happiness and well-being of those I love. It's not out of line to expect similar consideration in return.
I don’t even think it should be thought of as “mood” related. I know that word is used, but it’s really the attempt to say that it should be okay for her (and sometimes him) not to want to be intimate.
Hey, I’ve been busy. Don’t bother me.
What does that say? It says, when I can fit you in and things are just perfect, you’ll get some. Accept it or go to hell. Your not getting any.
What this says, is that the offending person thinks it’s okay to say no to love for periods of time. And if relations aren’t about love, then someone’s got a more serious problem than they think.
I agree. When the main priority of the loving husband and the loving wife is the happiness and well being of the other, all the elements of a happy marriage and family fall into place.
