Dear Sal,
My husband and I come from two different worlds; I love to host parties and have dinner guests and, he prefers to eat in front of the TV and not be bothered. What is it about a man when you are dating that they are on their best behavior and willing to go to shows, dinners, and dancing; it’s a whirl of activities and laughter. Then, six months after the “I Do,” he doesn’t!
The difference is night and day, suddenly the butt is stapled to the recliner, and it’s not going anywhere. How do I get the dating guy back instead of the pod that was left here in his place?

Oh dear! That is a common problem. I associate it with birds that show their bright feathers and dance about the female in a courting ritual. The male species struts his plumage in order to arouse the female. Unfortunately, it is kind of a false advertising that later leads to disenchantment.
The time has come for Hubby to give up the chair for an occasional night out, convey your feelings to him and let him know that although it will be a small sacrifice for him, it will be a huge investment in your relationship that you need. Hopefully, he is willing to compromise and create balance in your marriage so you won’t have to burn the chair.
Love Sal
