...I think you're missing hot tub sex, which is lovely, hot tubs easing back pain.
...The hot tub and even just our jacuzzi tub are both SO HELPFUL...
....But I cannot believe she wont' go in a hot tub or bath. Does she swim in a pool? The ocean? A lake?
We have a jacuzzi bathtub that I use for therapy at times. If my wife needs heat for sore muscles, it is either a long warm shower or a hot pad.
But, she doesn't go swimming, use hot tubs, etc.
Yes, I would enjoy hot tub sex with my wife, but it isn't going to happen in my life. There are enough good things in this marriage that this is not a deal killer.
Thanks for your comments.
>43 years of marriage--My wife and I are now closer than we have been in decades. I believe that my SSM is over.
