How long does the euphoria last?
| Mon, 04-05-2004 - 8:17pm |
I got involved with my OM a few months ago, and it was the sheer rush, the high of "new love" that drove the affair (at least for me).
Now I'm feeling like it's wearing off a little bit, for both of us. Or maybe real life is intruding. And I want to feel that high, forever. I want the fairytale!
What is everyone else's experience? How long does the affair last (this is my first, after 25 years of marriage)? Does it change over time? Do we get bored and split up?

Hi again sky cat,
I know for me... it's never worn off... I still get so damn excited to see MM... and after 4 years... I still look forward to his daily emails and my weekly phone call.
Certainly things have changed... we both have changed... and we are much more comfortable and open with each other with pretty much everything... but it still has not taken away the excitement.
Even the sex... I feel that it just keeps on getting better and better even though we know each others bodies just like we would in a normal everyday relationship... but there is something that just makes it feel almost like the first time... every time.
I don't think I will... but if I ever gte bored with MM... I think I would certainly have to reasses my situation... and maybe bring things down a little... but for me... full steam ahead :)

I get tongue tied and butterflies just looking at him, touching him, even just giggly like a school girl when he calls -
It's amazing -
We talk about it and if we lose that "feeling" we need to call things off - but so far for neither of us has that spark faded - if nothing else it's gotten stronger !!!

His call, his touch, his wink, his smile and his laugh still turn me on.
If it started to wear off, well then I would reassess the situation.
Don't get me wrong, there are changes to the R as you go along. At the beginning he said alot more things that were "dating" type of remarks. Now we've progressed to occasional compliments and little things he says, its settled down into a more natural relationship, rather than him trying to win me over with flattering remarks (of course, when he calls me extremely sexy, I still am thrilled by that)!! Enjoy yourself.
