Wow Faustboon, I just read your entire post from beginning to end. It was inspiring and encouraging. My wife has been “in training” for almost 4 years now and in that time has gone up and down just like what you describe. I’ve gone from BJ’s a gross to several a week and missionary only once a month to at least once a week (more if our schedules allow).
I also noticed – reading from beginning to end – it seems most of your “down” seasons occurred around script changes. Almost like a subtle rebellion to new thought invading her subconscious. But once they “settled in” things seemed to improve. This was an epiphany for me as – looking back – I’ve had the same seasons of failure when I changed scripts.
If you’d be willing I’d love to see some of your scripts and learn from them… as you’ve seen much better (intense) results in about 2 years than I have in almost double the time. I’m not sure how to use the PM here so if you’d like to use that please tell me how to locate the messages. But it may just be easier to mail me at reasonwild2000-love at the yahoo dottt com.
I appreciate all your care in journaling the process – it’s encouraged me to get more intentional with my wife. I look forward to your help.
Excellent ideas. I’ve since discovered that my laptop’s sound card is faulty and I can’t make any subliminals… so I guess I’m stuck until I can afford a new PC. But once I can do it, I’ll be using your excellent advice – thanks.
