I have been married for nearly 18 years. For the past 10 yrs or so, we rarely are intimate and often go a year or more in between. I have almost always been the one to initiate. When I express frustration about this, my husband often says it's because he doesn't feel close to me because I can be moody. (True, but there are plenty of times when I'm OK) Now he is diabetic an unable to function as he used to. Has tried 2 different medications (over the years) with little success. Now when I bring up sex he tells me it's not fair because it doesn't work the same for him anymore. I told him I need that connection (kissing, touching) and he still ignores me. I have asked him to talk to his dr. about this and he never does.
Otherwise, we get along OK. We have 2 kids - ages 14 & 15 - who would be devestated if dad & I divorced. Not to mention I cannot afford to live on my own . . .
Not sure what -if anything- I should do at this point. I feel very cheated, often angry, about what I'm missing.
