You want/plan on being intimate, but what if your body DOESN'T respond once you get started?! What if ultimately you're unable to go through with it?! Are you going to be faced with the sex argument?! Is he going to get upset, disappointed, angry or worst of all, hurt?! Is he going to think you're not trying hard enough or somehow you're deliberately trying to hurt him?! Is he going to see himself as a victim of some sort of cold-hearted selfishness on your part?!


That's the kind of input I need MPT. Thank you. It helps so much to get your views as to what my wife might be thinking, and I think you're probably not far off.

Maybe you need to ask her to just describe what it is like for her to want to be intimate but not be able to get past the resentment. Ask her to tell you more about the resentment. Don't argue with her feelings or perception of things. Let her know you're her friend and that her feelings of resentment must cause her alot of pain.


That's great advice MPT. After going in circles for so long, I'm finally starting to feel that I've got some hope. I'll try what you've suggested.

Thanks MPT. Always nice when you crawl out of the woodwork to dish out some of your good advice!
