She says she may not ever want to be intimate again, and she may truly feel that way....right now. But I cannot impress upon you enough the impact the emotional connection can have on the physical one.


ID, I just want to second what GEL said. After my EA and our separation, my W said the very same thing. In fact, she made it abundantly clear that she wanted nothing more to do with me. She very bluntly told me that she was staying with me for D(then)7 and for the financial security, and that she would be gone when when D got out of high school.

At the time, I also bluntly told her, “OK, that gives me 11 years to change your mind.” We’re still not where I would like to be, but our R and our SL are better than they have ever been. I’ve more than proven myself to her and she has no intention of going anywhere. Don’t give up the ship.
