Just recently my wife of five years informed me that she "has no libido". Now, it seems that I have to perform certain rituals in order to get her in the mood, so to speak. Now we are both in our fifties, & I understand that these things may happen; but all of a sudden?
It seems to me that I am to be the puppet. I am to jump through hoops to have sex.
Why she cannot throw me a bone (no pun intended) & oh I don't know, take me for a ride I guess sounds suitable, is a mystery.
So far I have swallowed my pride.
The main problem is that I was once a sex addict, perhaps I still am. But at least I am not acting out! She knows of my past & yet there is no change in her demeanor towards me.
I am concerned that I will begin to act out again & as a matter of fact I have, though she does not know it. It is becoming dangerous.
Any words of advice? I do not want to backslide.
Please feel free to contact me.
