All Comments on 'Essay: Know Yourself'

If you were decades older it would be different. Not your age, doesn't look like this can be fixed. Leave the marriage now. There will be a better life for you. Hope will spring better futures -- A geezer

Sorry for your situation. But frankly, you were immature and used your penis rather than your brain to think with. My story is different from yours--I loved a wonderful girl and she loved me, we were as compatible as could be. She wanted me to marry her and I wanted the same thing.

The problem? Her parents were not supportive, in fact, hated me. I refused to be the reason she might leave her family. Does the decision I made hurt after more than forty years--hell yes. But after reading this story I realize I made the right decision. She learned after her parents had passed why I didn't marry her, and according to her sister, the pain she feels is gone. Though I'm sure she feels as I do. We both married and had children, and lived lives we enjoyed with another person. If you don't know yourself well enough by now you should re-read your story--the answers are there. This time use your brain.

I just want to clarify that my wife and I married each other for many reasons outside of sex. We were in love, were supportive of each other and understood each other’s psychological situations, among other things. I focused on the sexual aspect of our relationship because this site is based on erotica.
