The sad part of all of this is that Peter openly admits that he is incapable and unwilling of giving me what I need (emotionally & physically). He knows Steve is the perfect person to fulfill this human need in me and yet when Peter and I get into a dispute (mostly about Steve and his affection towards me) he calls me SELFISH. He says that I am risking our 27 year marriage because of my selfish need for love and affection. He thinks I should be satisfied with what he gives me, which is very little.
On the other hand there is Betty who tells Peter constantly that she wants very little (emotionally) from him and yet he won't bond with her!!! He just wants sex from her. He is stuck on me and none of us know why?
In my heart, I feel that he is getting exactly what he deserves....and that is a person (Betty) who cares very little about her appearance, does very little for him and is stunted emotionally, as is he. They are perfect for each other. Why should Peter get the trophy wife that he refuses to work for or pay attention to? For years now, Peter has gone to bed without even kissing me goodnight. In contrast, even when it is not his night to sleep with me, Steve will turn the house upside down looking for me just to kiss me goodnight and wish me a restful night. I see one man functioning in a less than optimal marital obligation and the other functioning in pure love.
Guess which one I am spending the rest of my life with?
