DEAR CR-ABBY:
My husband, "Warren," and I are happily married. We love each other. We are both hardworking career professionals and have raised our family. We have always been faithful to each other.
Warren is very open with his emotions and often tells me how much he loves me. He is also very passionate during our intimate moments. The problem is, he expects me to act the same way -- which I can't.
Although I love my husband and always will, I do not feel comfortable expressing myself the way he does during our lovemaking. I am content to just "get it over with" while he yearns for the kissing, hugging and talk.
Despite an active sex life with Warren, he has told me many times he wishes I were more expressive and open with my feelings. I respond by telling him, "I am who I am." He is not happy that I refuse to change.
Warren is a wonderful man. Other women probably would have no problem giving him what he wants, but we are not compatible this way. I have never spoken to anyone else about this, and I'm wondering what you think. -- CONFUSED IN PENNSYLVANIA

Dear Role Reversal near Redding,
So, your honey is Pepe Le Pew and you the Cat Woman prying out from under to escape. Curious, while you didn't tell me how many years you have been married you did refer to having raised a family. Hence, I assume you've been together a couple of decades....has it always been so?
If not, maybe your plumbing is making that mid-life adjustment. Any good plumber will tell you it is all about the tools.
Run down to your nearby Pussy-Cat Club with the adjoining marital aid emporium next door and pick yourself up a nice massaging crescent wrench. Turn the bedroom into Tool Time.
Maybe that will loosen your tongue a tad.
If that fails there are a few illegal pharmaceuticals that help honey turn on the tulip..."X" marks/hits the spot :)
