Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	We have to make the most of the time the kids are out doing their own things. The year our oldest went away to college, Ross and I found oursleves alone one night becasue our two youngest were out. We're getting all snuggly and close and there's this wrap at the door. What the heck? It was one of our college age son's friends stopping by while he was home for the weekend. It was a little embarrasing. I think he knew what we were up to. This is the same kid we almost added as a deduction on our taxes one year. The same kid who would come in our bedroom while we were under the covers and tell US stories. It's always great to see him.

chichii Member Registered: 12/30/04 Posts: 23 Loc: Grande Prairie	my husband and I do not have sex that much anymore. I am not into wham bam thankyou mam sex, and he cant keep it up long enough and there is never any foreplay on his side. He is into pleasing himself only. which is not a turn on for me at all. so i use a vibrator when i'm alone. he says he cares about my feelings but his actions don't say that at all.

Lynn Member Registered: 06/26/03 Posts: 621 Loc: pennsylvania	Somehow I missed this subject too. In between, surgeries, radiation, chemo and hormone mania we are OK. Now we have a 6 year old sleep walker who has nightmares and cries. We can find him naywhere in the house crying between 11:00 pm and 1:30am. Can happena couple of times a night so, tiredness is taking over and we are definitely not on our normal swing. Seems like forever in between but we are grateful for each other and life in general so love runs deep in our house even if life is getting in the way of sex at the moment. But look out when the coast is clear! I think it is almost impossible to have sex when stress is overwhelming. Fear I can do but stress and anxiety forget it. How about you? Lynn

nikita Member Registered: 05/16/05 Posts: 4 Loc: Canada	Well, I'd say about 1 to 2 times a week. We've been married nearly 3 years. I wish it were more, but work life takes up a lot of our time.

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	chichii, is it worth trying to talk to him about it? Or isn't he a communicator? Lynn, you've had so much going on these past couple years. However, any time you talk about your hubby it is with ultimate respect. I admire that. Lynn, you mentioned stress. I recall a time after a car accident when stress turned to depression. I had energy for nothing during that period in time. Fortunately it was short lived and my husband was very understanding. Nikita, did you realize work got in the way of your love life before you posted? Sometimes these revelations are life changing. Try to take more time for your spouse if that's what you wish for.

meredithbead The Divine Ms M Registered: 07/07/03 Posts: 4894 Loc: Orange County, California	Bed Two strangers share a bed still share a life but stopped looking toward the future when the past became too onerous to bear. Sometimes arms inch across worn sheets lightly brush a shoulder once warmed by full embrace but the strangers never cross the line in the middle of the bed leaving broken memories to churn in fitful sleep. They dream, but never of each other. Bodies and hearts lie in a rut indentations in the mattress where lovers once played. ©2000 Meredith Karen Laskow from the chapbook "Galloping Words" $6 ppd. available from the author
