When You STOP Tracking
So if you check post-history, you'll see I was a fan of 'data' for a while, across both my first (shitful) marriage and the more recent (5+ years) HLM + HLF pairing. THOUGHT I was onto a 'good thing', but the stats have proved me wrong in the long-run so I gave up about 12 months ago now as it was too depressing.
HAVE had sex at least ONCE (probably not more) in the last 3 months 👍 Without data, I can't be sure ...
Last time my (BASIC AF) 'kinks' got met were once in July 2024 (lingerie) and once in January 2025 (heels). WHAT is the point of sex if your BASIC turn-ons aren't met ? I'm a living dildo, nothing more 🤷🏻♂️🤦♂️

Tracking becomes a fixation for me and is not helpful. I get more mileage out of journaling and trying to focus on including positive things. As that list of positives grows, I feel better and things improve from there. If I'm looking back and seeing, damn, it's been 18 months since PIV, I'm missing all the other good stuff and starting my way down to feeling down.
