Chrome You break my heart sometimes. I'm sorry you are so sad. The R with your W needs to be addressed right now, not later. The two of you seem soooo disconnected from each other Way beyond the sex. You've lost your friendship too. Why are you so fearful to talk to her honestly, the way you do to us? You need to do that at some point in order to have any chance for intimacy. I know you would never be happy with your W "showing up." You want and deserve more. So don't talk to her about the sexual issues as much as how you feel in your heart about life, her, the M, the future, the friendship, and on and on. She doesn't see a fraction, I bet, of what you hold inside you. Listen, I can relate, so I'm not judging at all. I feel lonely sometimes too. And yes, ultimately, we are alone and therefore, responsible for our own happiness. But we are also driven to make connections with other people. That is human nature. We need intimacy in our lives. We can't just go to work, come home, go to bed, repeat. That is no life. It's the people in our lives that make it worthwhile. I am so sorry you are lonely. And I know it sucks to have to express yourself over the stinkin internet to finally be heard by someone....But I do hear you. Me and plenty of others. I'm thinking of you King Chrome. Talk to your W.
