A couple friend of mine are going on a 2 year relationship and are having issues.  Granted they both brought 2 kids from previous marriages.  Both of the marriages were bad in their own ways, ex spouses selfish lil assholes.  And granted one of the ex spouses is dead now but the effects of that marriage still linger.  They also had a child together.  So that makes a total of 5 kids in one house.  To make matters even more interesting to this relationship is the age difference.  D the woman is not yet 30 and M the guy is yet 43 years old.  D is very vocal and was popular in school and does what she wants and screw who ever doesn't like it.  M is very shy and was not so popular in school and does what ever the strong dominate female that takes precident in his life tells him to do.

I won't go into what the issues are because D is having a mutual friend pass on information to me so I am not getting things straight from either horse's mouth.  But I did have this mutual friend of ours pass on a message to D:  "Go right ahead and think and feel what your going to but just remember; your relationship isn't brand new anymore.  Now it is going to take comprimise and work.  You can't be expecting EVERYTHING you ever wanted in a man even though you deserve it.  It doesn't work that way."

After our friend passed that on, D is now willing to take a step back and work things out a bit more.  I am glad.  But one of her comments got me to thinking and now I am goign to ask the women in relationships out in Mindsay to answer a lil question!:D 

D stated that M isn't turning her on to much any more.  But if she ever walked in the house after work or on a weekend and saw M up in her bathroom working on the bathroom that is currently being remodled that would get her worked up and time for some nookie!  When that was passed on to me, our mutual friend and I bursted out laughing and said isn't that some shit! 

So the question is for those women out there in Mindsay in relationships that aren't BRAND NEW anymore what would turn you on seeing your partner do?  See I got to thinking and our mutual friend agreed when I voiced the comment to her...........Randy and I are going on 10 years together and in Febuary 9 years of marriage.  Our mutual friend is going on 12 years together with her friend and 11 years of marriage.  I said you know D has a point about what turns her one now!  I would get all excited if I ever came home from running errands and had dinner not only cooked for me, but dishes done and put away afterwords, Randy to do bath times and put the kids to bed!  Our mutual friend sat there for a minute and said you know if my ol man would give me a call at work and said hey I know you have been stressed out and running here and there for everything, I am taking off of work a few hours early.  You take your time doing what you need to and I'll pick up our daughter and meet our son's bus at home!  I won't cook but I'll order take out and bring it home too boot!

What would excite you women out there in relationships that aren't brand new?
