I'm afraid that my wife -- the woman that I gave my heart to 24 years ago, and who I still love very deeply in a place inside, down past the hurt and anger and resentment -- I'm afraid that she will vocalize what her lack of physical touch and desire has been telling me for most of the past 20 years.
I'm afraid she'll tell me the words I haven't wanted to hear, the words that are going to tear my heart apart:
I'm afraid she'll say that she's just not attracted to me anymore. That maybe she's wanted to be, but it's just not there.
