Thanks for the post, Meatpup, there is some consolation in knowing that others are dealing with similar frustrations. For years I thought I was one of the few young marriages going through middle age marriage blues.

I just went to the doctor for depression and got some meds that should help with general sense of contentment with the side effect (benefit in this case) of lowering my libido. While I'm sad to see it go, it does bring me a lot of frustration and keeping my testicles from telling me what to do all the time may be empowering. A lot of women probably don't realize that we tend to be sort of enslaved by our sex drive.

Thanks again for you reassurance and encouragement. Hope you make some headway with your sitch as well.
