Hey AM, I guess you haven't been around because of constipation? Johanna said something about you being irregular. Ba-dum-crash. Sorry to hear about the painfully slow rending apart of your marriage. That really sucks... You know, you said that the right time will come for you to say "It's time to split up." Just be careful that when you say it, it's not out of anger...that it's out of thoughtful and careful kindness. And of course, part of that thought and care should be the plan for divvying up the assets, etc. I can't remember if there are kids involved, but that's always a "bit of a complication." I love my wife, but, if there wasn't a kid involved, I'd have been gone a while ago. She's just not able (or willing, or desirous) of showing love to me in the way I need to be shown love. I know you know what I mean.
As for seeing a sex therapist...man, you could have saved the money. I'll tell you that you shouldn't feel guilty about having a sex drive. As for calling it a "strong" sex drive, who's to say how strong? Perhaps it's just NORMAL. And, I shudder to say this...HEALTHY. W may say that it's not healthy, since it's breaking up your marriage, but we know that's not what's breaking it up. The sexual incompatibility of both of you is, at least in part, what's breaking you up. You share in that. She's not willing, desirous or perhaps able to meet you half way, and you're tired of being the one who makes all the compromise. AM, I know you will come out of 2004 a better man. You came out of 2003 a better man than you came in to it. Damn, you'll be almost perfect in a few more years. Then you'll be impossible to live with.
