GAMES FOR IMPULSIVE COUPLES – GAME 1: DELAYED GRATIFICATION (PART 1)
April 7th, 2009 | Posted by admin | Category: Men's Health-Erectile DysfunctionNo Comments
Players: Husband and wife.
Activists: Both.
Setting: Home or hotel.
Game Plan: The rationale for this game is that as long as the members of an impulsive couple succeed in avoiding their deeper feelings of shame and rage, they will remain on a superficial, driven mode of existence, slaves of their own whims. This game uses sexuality to help them to both develop a toleration for frustration and delay gratification.
Basically, the couple is required to abstain from sexual intercourse (and indeed from any kind of orgasmic release, including mutual or self-masturbation) for a period of time— say one month. During this time the husband and wife are asked, instead, to get undressed several times a week and sit facing one another on a bed or couch and make love to one another only with their eyes and words—but without touching. They should sit close enough to touch so as to have the opportunity to resist temptation. Then they should take turns making loving statements.
