andy, i think that sex is over rated sometimes. but it is a wonderful way to bond with your spouse. it can be so many things to so many people. and it is hard to talk about. my h thinks our sex life is better than ever. i think it is in many ways the worst it has been. at least as far as emotionally. but my h doesn't or shall i say hasn't felt sex is about emotional connection. it has been about passion and freedom for him. we are not lacking in the physical arena, but i feel emotionally disconnected from him. he feels very connected to me.
strange how 2 people in the same activity can have 2 different perceptions and feelings.
