Dear Dr Laura!
Today I'm writing to you to thank you for continuing to on going with this wonderful service of yours, of helping others. I first started listening to you about 12 years ago, My whole family was going through a rough time as my mom had just left my dad. At this time I was living in Mexico and I was going through the radio stations and there you were giving valuable advice to someone! Since then on I kept on listening!
Fast forward those 12 years I am now married, have 18 month baby boy and pregnant! I was listening to one of your "call of the day" about a guy who treated his wife like a "slut". This guy had a religious back ground and his wife had had a lot of boyfriends in the past, she was also having an affair. I listened calmly to the call until the end part, when the call was over, I was crying! That guy was me!
I had a strong religious background, my husband was the first man I had sex with. On the other hand, he had experienced a lot of girlfriends and sex. Every time since the first time, I had all those girls in my had when we were intimate. I always thought if they had better body, better boobs, more experience, etc. etc. I got to the point where having sex hurt, physically. I had Drs test me for anything we could to solve the problem. Of course ,sex stopped or rarely happened because of this pain. Frankly I did not enjoy it at all with all his ex on my head.
After listening to that call and realizing what I did. I immediately sent my husband a text telling him how I felt. I told him why and after that, things would be different. He gave me a super sweet answer.
The next day, he came from work at his lunch break and handed me a bag with lingerie and sex toys inside. We had the best sex ever! And since that night we had sex every night, even though we are both tired and sometimes stressed. He even went shopping the other day and brought home a perfume for me as a surprise, he is doing more of that little extra stuff around the house without me even asking. It was that easy, yes easy, I had to let go of my pride and prejudice. We are now rolling the ball on a different direction.
So thank you! For all your advice, only time will tell the effects far and wide of a woman who stands up for what she believes and preaches it (course I'm talking about you). God bless you!!
