When watching a movie with a boyfriend/girlfriend, the touching/caressing/arm around the shoulders between the two of you becomes too much, and you have to pause the movie to have passionate sex
the only way I managed to make it through "Legally Blonde" with my girlfriend was to stop for frequent intermissionary breaks.
When a middle-aged man or older takes a break from his marital duties and spouse and acts like he is single without any responsibilities or obligation to his family or spouse.
My dad has been in Vegas for 2 weeks, taking a gentleman's intermission from my mom.
