Sounds like a few of the women I have been with. Sex only when they want it. It's no wonder old men wander looking for some action. LOL Great story my queen. YNPP

Thanks, Erick. Hope you are feeling better.
Comment from billscott
So much for marital bliss...haha.
I hope I never get to a point where that "Kind of sharing" is easily disposable.
Makes me think if marriage is worth it. I mean, you meant this story in jest of course. It was funny. laugh out loud funny.
At the heart of it, I know what it's like to be dissed for a book even though mutual enjoyment is guarranteed.
Oh well.
Great story.

Now you have piqued my curiosity. I'll tell you one thing- it would have to be a darn good thriller to make me turn down a good man. :-)
Comment from Donya Quijote
I found no real vulgarity here. And believe me when I tell you I can find it no matter how well you hide it. My shipmates called me the nun and some chiefs who had notorious potty mouths, you know sailors and their infamous style of speech, would stumble over their tongues in my presence trying to temper their lips. Your friend is nuts!!!! No harm; no foul!

He's probably not getting any. Ha,ha. I must have hit a nerve. Maybe he married a bookworm.
Comment from mountainwriter49
Good Morning, Shari
I'm glad I found this wonderful piece this morning. I'm still laughing and trying to shake all of the vivid imagery out of my mind. You are fully certifiable and funny as hell!
With that said, you've well captured the essence of the older couple. I only found one thing obscene in the whole of the write. It's a minor thing, but one which I think any self respecting man would find obscene. Here goes: "tonight's meal of leftover meatloaf, instant mashed potatoes, canned mushy peas."
References to the pill, the one-eyed monster (aka one-eyes wonder worm) were humorous and written in good taste.
If I had a six left this week, it would be yours.
well done, my talented friend.
Ray

Thanks, Ray. Who knows? Maybe that awful meal is what turned off the listerner. :-)
Comment from mfowler
Nah, this just a funny, sad, poignant slice of real life. Know the conundrum; including both points of view. You have dealt with it sensitively, but with ironic humor, and that makes it more palatable and human.

Comment from Eleanor Buron
This is vulgar? Pretty tame vulgarity in my estimation. Pretty FUNNY tame vulgarity. LOL I know the ads - how wonderful the drug and then they name the risks - yep five hours may be a complication you don't want to deal with.
Shame on that censor person! Probably hasn't done much reading and certainly has an aversion to humor (and probably sex in general). Eunuch perhaps? I better stop here. ;) Good fun in this article.

Comment from pensee
I vote for publication. For some reason, the meatloaf made the piece for me. The whole thing had me chuckling.
"The Pill", "doctor", "erection", "four hours".(comma inside quotes?)
I leave him and head for( ) a quiet place to read my book. (extra space)

Sorry to take so long to catch up on reviews. I do so appreciate the exceptional rating as I thought it was one of my better efforts. I fixed the spacing. Thanks for noting.
Comment from closetpoetjester
LMAO This was FAR from obscene, trust me! LOL I thought it was a very accurate portrayal of the female mind at work and funny, sans all requirement for that primal male with all that viagraism. When will they work it out that its not always being pounded senseless that we ladies want, need or have actually asked for? I agree, it can be nothing but "words" at times that go to far reaching places for the ladies and that goes to show JUST how darn sensitive our minds are. Men ARE NOT wired the same. Get it hard, shove it in, please yourself is their motto. If they gave a a shit about our needs, it wouldn't be viagra they'd be reaching for. But they'll never work out how to completely satisfy a woman on an all round basis (as if they even want to!) Mine STILL can't work out why I DON'T want it at 4am when he has a damn dagger in my bag and he's toting an inflation that would make a piss horn look tame. I'm off back to read my book. LOL Enjoy your sixer, vulgar lady! Hardly! LOL Seriously excellent, seriously funny, seriously NOT VULGAR...had to laugh out very loud though at what he was "toting"...hahaha
Too funny Shari...tell all those haters to fuddy duddy off!
Nice to know who's boss in your boudoir. LOL
Cheers P

Love the exception rating and x-rated review, LOL Bet you didn't share it hubby.
an inflation that would make a piss horn look tame-- sounds like the legendary John Holmes (porn star) to me. Hey, maybe he can take a second job and buy you the house with the pool.
Man, I hate living aroud half-dead people. THank God for FS.
Comment from joann r romei
This is very cute, and funny. I'm sure many women will agree, I have a story about a group of seniors and sex but I havent had a chance to write about it yet, so many stories so little time.

Comment from judiverse
After reading this, I don't see the reason for the fuss about it. You used a narrator's voice that allowed for some words that I wouldn't have chosen, but they were in keeping with the character. I agree with the narrator's comments in the last paragraphs. She tells her husband she appreciates the gentle pucker-ups at her time of life, and that he should save his money--not worry about buying Viagra. Funny references to the possible side effects--erection lasting over four hours. Quite humorous. judi
