HD wife/LD Husband. Reading these posts is most upsetting. I don't see much hope of people changing. I have been with my husband 33 years. My last child is leaving to go to college next Fall. We think we've sold our house, and the thought of buying a new one with him makes me sick. I feel like I'm dying inside. Thought menopause would kill my sex drive but it hasn't. Plus, my H doesn't like touching, and he's not that nice to me...considering. I think he likes to keep things less intimate so there's no chance I can expect sex. I actually love my H but I feel I have no power in this relationship. I figure at 54, if we separate I'll probably be alone, but I think it's better than feeling alone when you're with your spouse. If there is anyone out there who has solved this problem without just killing off their own sex drive, I'd like to hear from them. TO YOU MEN, IT'S HARDER BEING AN HD WOMAN WITH AN LD MAN BECAUSE SOCIETY DOESN'T ACCEPT THAT. My girlfriends are always talking about how much sex their husbands always want, and I just sit there smiling but crying inside. HOW DO I KNOW I'M NOT JUST A COVER AND MY HUSBAND IS GAY INSTEAD OF LD.
