Beautiful and sweet. Love and sex with the one we love is the best! And having a family together just deepens it! And on the other side, when our children as young adults begin moving out and we transition back into just being a couple, with that extension of the deep deep love, that too is a brilliant time! Thanks for the writing Abby! It’s always so good! Judi

🥰🥰🥰 I won’t say ‘I can’t wait’ for that stage, because I’d never want to rush through this one, but the way you describe it makes me really stoked to enjoy it, too 🥰🥰🥰 Thanks for reading, as always, Judi!!!

Hey Abigail, just me here binging on your posts.

Im curious- was the chemistry with your husband always this good, from the get go. Or did you have to learn how to have great sex together?

I'd love to share why im asking this (related to my own relationship) but I'm still new to substack and i don't know how much publicity and exposure these posts get.

Thanks in advance ❤️

Elina, I am HONORED by your binge. Thank you for reading me so thoroughly - the highest honor, really.

This is a great question! I should write a whole post about this. But the short response is — no it was not always this good, but it was there, in a way. The metaphor coming to mind is that I could feel there was the raw material, but it was not honed into a true talent. Like there was a tension, a knowingness from the beginning. But it was teenager-like and sometimes not even sexy how it manifested. I could sense that it would be amazing with time, or maybe I didn’t even know that in words, but I knew, you know? And, yes, it’s taken time, talks, etc. to develop into what it is. Like how inside joke develop with friends over time.
