Thank God for this Tattle thread, I need cheering up tonight!
@Yorkiejules - I didn’t see you post about Pinky and The Brain or I would have done the same thing in response! Speaking of which, that theme song has been in my head all evening.
I just had the most stupid “argument” with my boyfriend. I was watching a silly, trashy Channel 4 show called Sex Tape. On there, couples who aren’t having as much sex as they were in the beginning film themselves having sex and therapists watch the footage with them and help them to see if they can “get their spark back”. Anyway, whilst I was watching this, my boyfriend was on his laptop gaming. I turned to him and commented that I felt the people on this show had unrealistic expectations. I cited that the human sex drive diminishes each time you have sex with the same partner and that it’s natural that the frequency of sex decreases in line with that, but that relationships are more about stability, trust, comfort etc. Then I said the people on the show needed to realise that there was a balance to be had (because they all wanted earth shattering sex 5 times a week). My boyfriend then started to rant at me because “if I want more sex, then I know where the door is” and that I need to “find someone my own age if I want that” because “men his age aren’t messed up by all the porn millennials have seen”. He is twice my age and we have been together for almost 3.5 years. I think he completely misunderstood what I was saying and is now sulking. I’m finding solace on Tattle in a separate room!
