We're in our lower 30s, married for 10 years. She's been an various anti-depressants for probably 12-14 years. Her periods typically take us out of commission for 2.5-3 weeks per month, and it's been like this for all 10 years. Add to that the fact that she's LL anyway, and it's been recipe for disaster. The one week per month we get we'll usually have sex twice, so I guess things could be much, much worse. She's usually good with HJ and BJs during the rest of the time, but the frequency of sexual activity has been a long struggle to get it to a level I'm kind of happy with. So I guess we've made some progress there at least.
Anyway, regarding the periods she says she's brought it up to her doctor and they've tried different depression and birth control meds, all to no avail. My biggest fear here is that she's not really that eager to fix this problem. I've long suspected that she likes using this as a perfect excuse to not have to have sex.
Anyone dealing with anything similar? I guess this is more of a vent than anything, since we've talked about sex frequency issues the last two nights (no actual sex) and she's once again snoring in the lazy boy. FML. I just wish I'd get the feeling from her that she actually gives a **** about it.
