I met my wife during a class at a university in California. She caught my attention easily enough β she was (and is) a shapely young lady with long blonde hair which is usually in a ponytail, a pretty face and beautiful blue eyes. She has a typical Nordic look to her.
As the semester progressed, I found more and more opportunities to talk with her. One thing led to another and soon we were dating, engaged then married. All this occurred over a period of 3 years. During this time we were sexually active, but nothing really unusual or particularly noteworthy. She had a bit of an exhibitionist streak, but generally was inclined to the traditional wine, dine, movie, home for sex in the bedroom
After being married for about 5 years, we had our first child, followed 2 years later with our last. She and I entered the full-time parenting mode and our sex became less frequent and more routine. It was enjoyable, but was more like hamburger than steak.
When our youngest child was about 7 years old, we finally decided that we could take a vacation without the kids. So, for the first time in about 8 years, we could be alone and without our daily parenting worries. I decided immediately that to truly accomplish this, we had to get away. Far away. We decided on a Caribbean cruise for the paradise-like scenery and carefree experience.
We were both very excited at the prospect of this long-overdue get-away. When we arrived at the hotel in Miami for the night before the cruise, we couldn't get at each other fast enough. She wanted it hard, fast and now! I was more than happy to oblige. We hadn't shown that much passion for each other in years.
