Katie! Welcome to the group no one wants to belong to. I have a few things to say, as a fellow HD spouse.

1. Sex is really, really important to me, but tonight, KU is playing in the NCAA Tournament, and I'd have to think twice is my W miraculously said to me, "Let's go upstairs and do the horizontal bop." I'd probably compromise, turn on the tv in the bedroom, and, do it doggie-style so we both could watch it. Wait....visual daydream...ML with my W while watching KU win...Can anyone say HEAVEN???

sorry, got distracted there.

2. I guess we'd all like to know some more info, such as ages, length of marriage, kids, how bad is the ML sitch, did it used to be good, is there possibly a physical problem with him, are there some body-image issues, etc. The more info you give us "experts" here, the better we can target the advice.

3. If he doesn't want to read the book, you probably can't make him. Duh.

4. Don't give up hope. Never give up.

5. There are a few success stories here, but there are probably more stories where it didn't work out. But you might be one of the potential successes.

Let us know some more, and we'll all try to help.
