Welcome John,

Please check out the books 5 Love Languages and Passionate Marriage as well. We make frequent references to these on this site. There are many people here who are fighting for a better, happier marriage and sex life. Your wife used to be HD too - can you tell us more about the evolution of the LD. Can you describe more about the quality of your R otherwise? How are cleaning, repair and childcare jobs divided in your home. Do you both work. Do you both enjoy good physical health? How old are you and she? Any counseling over the years?

I know this is laborious but it helps us all to put things in perspective when we offer advice or suggestions. There are some smart people here with experience and good suggestions. We all love our spouses and are doing our best. You are in good company.

Karen
