perfect example of the first time I experienced that inexplicable attraction. I was in college and worked in the library. There was a guy there that worked in the same office at the library, but he always worked in a different room. I never gave him a second thought as far as thinking he was particularly attractive, plus we were both married. We would nod hello every day, but that's it. We never even talked. One day, however, I had an assignment that had me working in that same room as him. Whoa. Out of nowhere I felt this attraction, kind of tingly in my stomach and arms, almost a little swimmy in the head. It was so intense. We weren't even rubbing elbows working together, but I guess it was close enough. I really think there is something to the pheromones thing, or "chemistry."
The second time it happened, I was sitting on the couch at my house, my husband was sitting across the room from me, and his friend had come to visit. This is the guy that was best man at our wedding. Now I always thought he was good-looking, but I had never felt the attraction I felt that day, when he sat about foot away from me, on the floor in front of the couch. My husband was sitting right there, and you know, it was REALLY weird feeling an intense physical attraction to another man with my husband sitting across the room.
Neither time I acted on what I was feeling and I won't now either. But the more I think about it, it must be pheromones. I must say though, I feel bad for people who have that kind of chemistry with somebody else they have to spend time with regularly if they are already married. That would be a very hard thing to handle.

Perhaps you should consider a sleep study for him...nm
All the below, plus maybe get a sleep study
Doctor sent me to sleep study because of my drowsiness and foot swelling and surprise, I needed CPAP. It's much easier to stay awake now. I do take the occasional power nap but it's not more than once a day anymore!
This study seems to show
that 8.7% of patients experience a postop incisional hematoma after a lumbar laminectomy, just to give you an idea of frequency of this complication. Is that what it was called - a hematoma?

Is this only Bible study or does it involve anything else? nm

We have Bible study but we also have a lot of get-togethers. It is a very sm
"light" class. A lot of fun. Great relationships between the couples. To me, it's just great therapy.
Work study programs?

Well, he or she won't have the sleep study, but may order one for *you.* LOL sm
I can't believe it; I'm communicating like some of my docs now, with the unfortunate wording.
I forgot to mention what the first study was about.
They had people wear clean white t-shirts for a day and then had people of the opposite gender sniff the shirts. They had to choose the shirts that smelled good. Then ALL the people got together and mingled. The result of the study indicated that people wound up singling out the owners of the shirts they found attractive.
The Godfather I and II. A study of misplaced honor.
