My ex, after several years of marriage, told me one day that she didn't want to shave her legs until the spring time (this being early November). After haggling with her that she shave her legs only on Fridays for our date nights and weekends away, she then told me that since she had to wear make-up for her job, she no longer wanted to wear make-up on the weekends. We compromised and she then put on lipstick only for our date nights. About a year later she told me that she felt her skin was getting dry from too many showers from Monday to Friday and that she would no longer be showering on the weekends. This was all on top of her having a slight (white) moustache that she refused to ever get waxed and that only got worse, and more noticeable, with age. She also began cutting her hair shorter and shorter as many women do as they get older. Her final "hairstyle" was a little more than a buzzcut that I had when I served in the Marines, so many moons ago. I loved this woman and shared many laughs with her. But her unwillingness to compromise and to consider what I needed to continue to be physically attracted to her did not matter to her one bit.
The irony of this is after we divorced I began visiting amps, and I recently saw her walking around the Upper East Side with an older Asian gentleman!
