LOL! No not a good sign of that!! It's a good sign because it means she's likely starting perimenopause (sorry if that's more info than anyone wants to know..) Means her PMS days are numbered. I started having crappy sleep a couple years ago around 'that time'. My PMS has getting less and less severe ever since. Course, it could be the thousands of dollars I've spent so far on therapy... (yeep). Oh well who knows, and who cares I guess. Neither my H nor I are complaining.


I cannot complain for not receiving from others, that which I've never asked them for.

There is therapy for that?

Where can I sign up?

And she was thinking "I have PMS, I have PMS, everything is wrong, life is miserable...wait there comes Pinhead, he wants to make me happy, did he bring flowers? I hate flowers. Why is he smiling? I hate him! Uh, he asked me how my day was going. How nice of him. I'll just feel like making him a sandwich."


I think that if I had walked in the door with flowers, I'd have been eating them for lunch...

And well, I did have a sandwich, but not a Sandwich. wink

Not me.

Don't get me wrong: if somebody needs real help for something serious, I have a cell phone and will call the cops or whatever seems best smile

But show me a gloomy woman moaning about this or that, complaining about various things, and I have zero romantic interst--real libido killer.

100% agreement. Nothing is more unattractive than someone who complains all the time.

But someone needing/wanting my help? Oh yeah.

Hello Pinhead,
Just following your story. Your wife ML with you and you're pretty sure she enjoys it and wants to. That's surely a good thing? I'm surprised at what she says about kissing, though. You've certainly come a long way from things as they were at the start. I hope you two can piece things together. She sounds to me like one very confused person. the DB book says not to set too much score by what's said by the "unloving" spouse, personally I'm clinging to that and watching the actions. If she felt no attraction at all for you and given that she's been wont to tell you in clear terms what she's feeling (at the minute), would she have been a willing partner? Mind you, I have no judgement on that score, my H ML to me (he initiated as much as I, even more) about 3 or 4 t/week, right up till the day before he told me it was over and he couldn't "bear" me any more.

Bravo on being a new man where PMS is concerned. Your W is lucky she can tell you about such things and that you try to be understanding. My H just used to ask me if I was having my "period or something" whenever I disagreed with him or was tired or worried, fairly nastily at that.

I'd be with those who tell you to surprise her in some way, shake her out of her torpor.

Before I call the cops I will check with my buddies Smith and Wesson if the urgency warrants their immediate intervention.
cool

Yes dependent woman is indeed a libido killer. I like confidence and independence.
Eventhough it makes my fight for my W more "challenging".
