Hello everybody. Some advice please.
My wife and I are in our early forties, we've been together 20 years, married for fifteen of those. We have two teenage children.
We both have good jobs, live in a lovely house, have great friends and a good social circle and good hobbies and activities.
We're a pretty good team. We've had up and downs, but nothing major. We can niggle at each other when we're both tired,
and on occasion we've had full blown rows, some times over silly things, but nothing that has lasted more than a day or two.
We enjoy each others company, and when we do have a (rare) night out together we have great time.
The problem is sex. Or rather lack of it. we haven't had sex for ten years. Or indeed any sexual activity. A kiss on the cheek,
the odd stand up cuddle. that's about it. If I attempt a cuddle in bed, it's soon put a stop to!
My wife says she's just not interested. And doesn't want to talk about it.
I love her to bits, and we talk about growing old together. But this makes me really sad when I stop and think about it.
I don't want to think at my age I'll never have sex again!
Is this a common situation? Do I just have to accept that this is normal for some people, and there are more important things to worry about.
Is it likely to be me? Has she just gone off me completely? Have others been here before and managed to rekindle things?
Thanks
