I don't know about the others, but I still want to hear about the mundane issues that resulted in the former LMitW voluntarily giving up his title. Color me nosey.

How funny . . . I was going to add he's not yet the luckiest man alive because we're not yet having sex. Perhaps he's the luckiest lawyer alive?
The artist formerly known as the luckiest man alive (TAFKATLMA) did not voluntarily relinquish his title. Ultimately, I got a little too tired of being Penelope to his Odysseus.
It's all so tiresome and I have been dealing with it for so long and the issues are just usual run of the mill things. We agreed that incredibly hot sex could not overcome his ennui, the business stress he is under (after launching a business thinking that would help his crushing boredom in life), or his need to frequently withdraw from everything to focus on whatever he needed to at that moment.
I supported him without (much) attitude, with the caveat, "this is for now, not forever." This happened a few times.
Over time, bored myself, I started accepting invitations to parties and events with other people. He had the temerity to be annoyed when I attended a gala with a man he did not know.
The final straw was when I asked him out for a recent Saturday night when we were both in town (pizza, football, his house) and he rejected me, telling me: "I am going to be working and so should you."
TAFKATLMA does believe that he is still in the game, despite our conversations including the ones he precipitated that put us on hold, and that whenever he chooses to step back in fully, I am there for him.
