First 2009 Post

My first post for 2009. Well what is there to say? Life here is mostly okay but still no sex from the missus. I think it's clear I'm taken for granted. Well maybe we take each other for granted. The most affection shown here is when I give her a pat on the shoulder, or walk up and give a hug or a kiss on the cheek. Her reaction, she just stands there and waits for it to end. She never reciprocates. I don't think that is normal. Well it shouldn't be normal. I'd be happy if just once in a while I'd get an unexpected hug or kiss. Some affection, but I don't. So the urge to stray gets stronger and stronger. I've been on a networking site making acquaintances. One was promising, a 38 year old lady who lived about 10 miles from here. However she deleted her account. I guess something happened and she chose to pursue real life which I can't blame. Another lives nearby, but she seems like too much drama to mess with. I really shouldn't waste my time with that silly stuff, but I just can't help it. We're in our 7th year. If you ask her if our marriage is in that 7 year itch I'm not sure what she'd say. She'd probably say things were status quo. Me, I think it is. Especially if I'm online talking to other women.
