Love life back on track :)........(long)

I had a thread running a while ago and have often mentioned on other threads, the problems dh and I have in our marriage. Tbh there's just one BIG problem...lack of sex.

I'd decided that after a very long time together I was going to leave him. I didn't really love him like I should, we were like brother and sister and I didn't fancy him...or so I thought! I had to wait until dh was over the latest hurdle in a long running stressful situation before telling him I wanted out.
So, this is going to sound daft to non believers, but I went to see a tarot reader who's also a medium into numerology etc.. she has a very good reputation. I went on a whim as she works in a town centre cafe and I had some time to spare. Luckily she coulc fit me in. I was really wanting some career advice as I have a career in mind and have started the ball rolling,just wondered if she could give advice on it? Also was curious about any future love life
Well, to say I was blown away is an understatement She was so accurate. She told me my personality and dh's personality. Knew the cause of his reluctance to make love. Knew the stress he was going through. She knew minute details that unless she'd been a constant fly on my wall there's no way she could've known. She knew things about my family etc...

To cut a long story short she told me something I already knew, that dh is my soulmate. Not only that but our marriage is also a partnership and we have lots in common. I knew all this but didn't think I could carry on as felt so neglected. She said I may get a surprise if I told him how I feel. Don't get me wrong he knows I want a sex life, who doesn't? but he didn't really know how close I was to go. I've sort of been protecting him. Well, I told him. And he even admitted that his parents attitude to sex could've affected him. My parents were the opposite and I love sex so we've always been mismatched this way. It was good in the beginning but soon dwindled.

So, now my next door neighbour has her house up for sale as she can't stand the noise any longer Just joking. But really, our love life is amazing. We're even sending each other dirty texts and dh is a lot happier as of course am I

I really can't believe it but am thankful we've sorted this big problem out I just hope others with this problem can find a solution too.

Oh we're going alright We've all been out painting the fence and summerhouse today and I said to dh I bet our next door neighbour, who was in her garden, is wondering what's going on. Dh said, I bet she's surprised to see us outside

Delighted to hear.

Anyone else got a nice story to post.

Come on! It's much better than the usual troubles and probably a good way of passing tips.
