I really appreciate your sharing your story. It was helpful to read, and I hope many women and men will be motivated to begin talking with one another about their expectations regarding their shared intimacy, so there can be better communication and connection.
It's strange how difficult it is to talk about intimacy and sex, but I strongly believe this is a learned behavior, and many people do not ever learn how to talk about their feelings and expectations and desires...it's embarrassing and we don't have the words sometimes to describe what we mean regarding this taboo topic. I hope couples keep practicing at communicating with one another, as hopes, dreams, desires, expectations, behaviors, feelings....these all keep changing and need to be re-visited.
