not too bad

Not a great story, but certainly far from the worst we've seen here. This author has potential: I think you need to work on being clearer about characters' feelings. WHY has the husband lost interest in sex so completely? How does he feel about his wife's adultery: furious, or turned-on? There's less clarity than there should be. Thanks, ohio

Not bad

A decent story. Good set-up in the beginning – she says what she's going to do, she's serious, he lets her go do it. Twist: most folk would be exaggerating, she's dead serious. That's fine. I could even see Mike getting turned on by it (he must've had something in mind when he wired the house), but it needed more emotional impact from Mike. Obviously the exhaustion is deeper than just being too tired, but we needed to see growth on this (even for a short story like this one). Other than that, not bad.

Quick turnaround

After she follows thru once, I would expect him to do something. When the second time happens, it is a repeat of nothing obvious. If he was truly that blasé about her, why bother checking up on her? Then, BOOM, third time, and in mixed-triples play, he's ready to go 'all in'! Just doesn't resonate with me, that he could go from indifferent to hard-core swinger in one fell swoop!

I presume SOME people must like this thoroughly-boring, tedious sort of stuff, & good luck to them, but I do hope that they discover some effective treatment before too long! For me personally though, it started off hopeful in spite of the guy's total and absolute very long-term abandonment of his sex drive! THIS was TOO much full on at his age, -completely unbelievable. So it quickly descended into a mind-numbing unreadable shitstorm that I personally had to quickly abandon for the sake of my sanity. That's MY opinion, BUT other opinions ARE also available. ZERO points from me though.
