Yep, I definitely see it as somewhat of a contest. You are right that it may be where I have been going wrong, but I just can't see staying with someone if I feel like she's second best. Also, I am well aware that what has flipped my lid may very well have the opposite effect on others. So, it's the whole "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" type thing. She does it for me and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.
Also, Hush-
Not sure if this is what you were hinting at, but..... The commitment thing- I definitely feel like sex is ALWAYS better in a relationship. After my divorce I had to start all over and I learned quickly that one night stands SUCK! So, this girl did not get to own her new title immediately. It was definitely earned.
Jaknight- What can I say? Classic.
