It started even before this awkward time... |
Here's
a "joke" which almost all women "Get" and few men "Get." |

Answer: As every woman knows, the man was supposed to lovingly remove the nightgown, not demand that she take it off and stand blatantly, vulnerably, stark naked before him like some deer he had just bagged. A woman is shy and demure on her wedding night. Whether she is a virgin or not, the tone for the marriage is set on that very important evening and she wants to present herself to her new bridegroom as being "virginal" and shy. Intimacy is a "shared process," not a matter of one person making demands of another despite their wishes. This has the flavor of the Hollywood producer demanding to see the hopeful starlet naked and on his casting couch before "consummating" the deal. It would feel humiliating and too vulnerable to strip before a judge. This needed to be a shared process of two sensitive and willing players. For her to just "strip," may make her look less virtuous than she wishes to appear, and feel that way, too. She might be humiliated. Most women would. He needs to help her preserve her shyness, dignity, and innocence by very gently, slowly, respectfully, sensitively ... tenderly ... removing it from her himself.. kind of unwrapping her like a pristine and delicate wedding present. She is presenting herself to him. He needs to then "accept" her and "unwrap" her slowly and lovingly.. with respect. By not doing so, he makes her feel rejected. Had she removed the night gown herself on his demands, she might have felt undervalued, even "cheap." Had she taken it off in front of him as he demanded, she might have felt like a "stripper" and he might have even thought her morals were not so great after the fact, even though he had demanded it himself. Both of them might have lived to regret that act as the intimacy of their relationship might have begun on a sour note. She was trying to preserve it and start it on a good note.. but he was not listening .. not "catching" what she was trying to "pitch." But, it's not his fault.. Nor is it hers.... |
We all need love and intimacy but none of us
can have it |
|
These two people love each other. They loved each other enough to make a lifetime commitment. But, they don't understand each other because they can't communicate effectively. The ONLY problem is lack of "Effective Communication." |

In the course of my very lengthy and in-depth research I have discovered the missing pieces of the puzzle and I know what to do to remedy this terrible situation which has destroyed couples, families, and has left us in much worse shape than even you suspect at this moment. The process to remedy this tragic situation is purely Educational, NOT therapy. No one is at fault here. We are all innocent victims, but there is work to do and it all starts with learning the facts and then applying them to form solutions. |
