Married and Celibate

from Strawberry Letter · host iHeartPodcasts

Dear Steve and Shirley, for the past 23 years, I’ve been married to the nicest guy in the world and I have always tried to be the perfect wife and mother. In the beginning of our marriage, our sex life was perfect, but over the past 7 years, things have drastically changed. In 2018, we had sex maybe 8 times in the whole year. I counted them. I don’t think he is cheating, because all he does is go to work and come home. If he goes out, we go out as a family. I just don’t think that he is interested in sex at all. He is completely complacent and I’ve stopped initiating sex because I get tired of him telling me to “move” all of the time......................................
