SEZ WHO??
I've been married for 32 years (to the same guy) and while once in a while a
"marriage sabbatical" of an hour or two might have had some appeal to ME
perhaps (but certainly not to my husband since he's married to a flawless
creature ;-) !!!!), I am wondering if MS made that idea up. Is it similar
to the "open marriage" idea that some screwballs in the 70's tried to
convince everyone was the norm?
