Thank you Cyrena.

Our joint sex therapist at our session last week reminded of the saying that "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger." She also told us that in her mind, we were on the verge of being "cured as long as we don't backslide." She also said that we should stretch out the time between our sex therapy sessions, unless we run into a problem where she can help.

I really feel loved and it feels so good from how I have felt much of this past 12 months, and many of the years prior to that.

I just hope that my wife feels as loved, which she has said she does.

Last night I told her that I felt really close and bonded to her. She said that she doesn't know what bonding means, but she feels a kind of closeness and comfortableness with me to be herself that she hasn't felt in years.

I will keep my fingers crossed and do all I can to support my wife and make her feel loved. Right now I am doing all the laundry she will allow me to do (she just doesn't trust me to wash & dry her delicates - go figure), while she is out getting a manicure and pedicure. When she gets back, I am going to take my sexy wife out for a movie and dinner.


>43 years of marriage--My wife and I are now closer than we have been in decades. I believe that my SSM is over.
