Here's a question. If my spouse is physically unable to have intercourse, but other avenues are possible, is it selfish to feel slighted that the other doesn't want to please them? For example, if my parts were out of order for the moment, and i knew my partner was sexually unsatisfied, I would do my best to make sure they were somewhat happy. Either by discussing it or giving them some sort of sexual release. Not to mention, it's about making them feel good not out of selfish reasons. Lack of physical intimacy is the number one reason people divorce. It leads to low self esteem, low self worth and uncertainty in the relationship. In my experience anyway. I'd love to hear an objective opinions though
Just reading your opinion led me to believe female answer, and I was right. Until prostate cancer destroys the sex drive in a man. It’s very to pray or exercise, meditate the issue away. It never goes away until something medical intervenes and disrupts the process.
Been there not a great life narcissism is real. It's dangerous. And an illness. For thirty years. You may not be in that predicament. Narcissistic tendency can be love you and hate you at the same time,and they will use you up until they think you are no longer needed. I think the lord may have a word or two about that, hope the best for you. God bless. Now you know this, but may not be. Who knows. Only way I knew was I found out she had been cheating on me 600 miles away visiting her sister, sure she was. It's been 6 years and still affects me. Forgot one thing,I was married for thirty wasted years. Now at age 68 life by myself is very lonely,being sick does not help. Thanks for reading. I'm off my soapbox now. I had to let this out. Thank you.
