Reason #5: You May Find It Isn’t As Big A Risk As You Think
Have you ever resisted something out of fear, only to try it later and wish you hadn’t waited so long? Many women have told me this was like that for them: it took courage, but it was one of the best things they did for their marriage. Because they as women saw something too: they saw that their fears were empty. They saw that their husbands really did love them and delight in them just as they were. These women gained confidence they never expected. And they found themselves unexpectedly moved by their husband’s almost gleeful delight in this new experience together.
So give it a try. Let your husband see you and delight in you—just as you are, with your own unique and matchless beauty. I’m guessing that the response you get from him will provide the best possible incentive to continue!
