[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a big bout of depression at age 35 and if you count once a week as sexless like my asshole husband did, it began then. Things are better now but I don’t know that I’ll ever forgive him for how he handled the whole thing. Now sex isn’t about being emotionally close at all. It’s enjoyable but it will never be the same.

Hanging on to resentment is unhealthy, and often quite selfish.[/quote]

Wow thank you for the the profound advice that I have never ever heard before. 🙄[/quote]

You seem quite comfortable in the role of being bitter and resentful. A lot of people in that role convince themselves that it is justified and they are righteous. But it is often the fact that they are selfish and holding onto perceived offenses because it is easier than being fully engaged in a relationship. And if you've heard the profound advice before, why haven't you acted on it?[/quote]

….did you miss the sarcasm there?

Okay I’ll try again.

Your advice is simplistic, trite, and unhelpful.

I am fine. I am working through my issues and I lead a generally happy life. The question I have is why you feel comfortable telling somebody they have taken on the role of being bitter and resentful, and that they feel comfortable in that role(!), based on their story about experiencing something terrible in their sex life and acknowledging that they aren’t over it.

“Perceived offenses,” good grief, give me a break. You have no idea what you’re talking about. [/quote]
