I was watching a show the other night that really made me think about my relationship with my wife. We were talking about how much we love each other and how we are so happy together, and I told her how much I loved her. Then she asked me if I would ever leave her. I said, “No, never.” And then she said, “Why not?” And I said, “Because I love you.” And she said, “But why can’t you just be friends?”

She is right. Why can’t I just be friends? It is hard to explain. Sometimes it seems like I am just friends with her. But I know that I am more than just friends with her. She is special to me.

My wife and I have been married for a long time now. I feel like we are almost strangers. I have forgotten what it was like to wake up next to her every morning. I have forgotten what it felt like to hold her close to me as we lay in bed at night. I have forgotten how it felt to kiss her goodnight and know that I will see her tomorrow. I have forgotten how it feels to sit down and watch television with her. I have forgotten what it is like to be able to tell her anything without fear of getting into trouble.

But I still love her. I love her the way that I did when we first got married. I love her the way I did when I was courting her. I love her the same way I do now that we have been married for over 20 years. I still have feelings for her. I still want her to be happy. I still want her to have someone that she loves.

It is hard to explain. I have forgotten how it is supposed to be. I have forgotten how it used to be. I have forgotten what it feels like to be in love. I have forgotten what it takes to make a woman happy. I have forgotten what it means to love a woman.

But I still remember how it felt to fall in love with her. I remember how it felt to make love to her. I remember how it feels to kiss her. I remember how it is supposed to feel to be in love with a woman. I remember how it is meant to be.

I have forgotten what it feels like. But I still know that it feels good.
