Replying to myself with some additional thoughts.

In earlier posts, I thought that our problem was low sexual drive. Now I am not so certain.

Let's look at the facts.

I like to be with my wife. I find myself wandering room to room just to talk to her. Rarely does she follow me about.

If she buys me gifts, I try to use them and be appreciative of them.

How is it that a low drive makes you not want to be with someone? I like to spend time with my daughter, and I am certainly NOT attracted to her. I like to be around people I like. I don't like to be around people I don't like. How is it that doesn't extend into marriage?

I suspect that it does. I suspect that if she really liked me, she would want to be with me. Whether it is in the shower, the kitchen or the bedroom, low drive or not. I understand the need for personal space, etc, but I am talking about visible signs of simply liking someone.

I don't believe in mysteries, only in incomplete information. I fully intend to understand my situation to the point of being able to clearly and succinctly define it.

You can call someone depressed, introverted, extroverted, single minded, ad nauseam..., BUT, even most dogs will follow you around if they like you.

Am I missing something obvious here?

I will ferret out an affair at any opportunity.

-An affair is the embodiment of entitlement, fueled by resentment and lack of respect.
-An infidel will remain unreachable so long as their sense of entitlement exceeds their ability to reason.
