Hey I went on Bio-Identical Hormones! Great!
sorry if this was too much.
I'm no endocrinologist, after all, but I am interested in how these things work: if the "pill" that you take (I presume you mean an oral contraceptive) actually normalizes your hormones, how would it also knock out your fertility? I presume normalizing the hormones would result in normal fertility. And normal libido. And "getting back to normal" is just what we mean by "sexual health," isn't it?
So if "the pill" gets you back to normal, then, great! --- more power to you. But if it wipes out your fertility, it's not helping you get hormonally normal. See what I mean?
Oh! True love! I feel like going over and giving my husband a great big kiss!
Givem one for me.
Thanks.
I heard what I commented on from a very trusted source, but it was something I had never seen the original source of. I think you found it; What you provided was close enough, I think my source could very well have characterized your article they way she did.
TMI. Now it's time to puke.
(Before you flame me, yes I'm teasing! Conngrats on having the one you love with you--nothing better!)
I completely understand, but it sure did the trick last night.
Thanks brutha
"Major cause of decline in satisfaction for married people: Wife's lack of sexual interest."
Followed soon thereafter by husband's erectile disfunction.
Then resorting to Viagra-husbands blindness-then his enhanced sense of smell that throws him into a uncontrollable sexual frenzy, everytime she drives him past a Red Lobster.
I know that feeling and so does my wife of fifty one years minus one month now. Our relationship probably started out all about me, and maybe from her perspective, all about her. That was plenty to begin with, when just being close to each other, (both on the same planet) lit a fire that made white heat, ice cold by comparison.
Somewhere along the line, that white hot heat fused our hearts and souls together in a bond closer than our flesh has ever experienced and is probably incapable of feeling. She and I can no longer find satisfaction from sating our own needs, sexual or otherwise-our satisfaction is provided by bringing satisfaction to each other.
We may just look like a couple of gray headed, wrinkled up old farts to the rest of the world, but to one another, we look just like we did a half century ago.
Love isn't blind-it merely magnifies what is important.
You have achieved a condition known as fusion. It is very rare to find, and you should count your lucky stars. I am greatly grieved that I could never find the right woman to truly become one with. Now that I am in my forties, I have all but given up hope.
I am a single fellow whos wife passed 5 years ago.
She was the epitome of romance and ladyhood, very kind and loving.
I am inclined to think that the women these days, for all the brouhaha about romance and wanting a man who will listen and be sensitive is a complete crock, they just want to find a good looking truck driver or doctor.
It is very difficult because I knew my wife for years before we ever even kissed, and whatever passes for "pairing up" these days, I haven't a clue.
It's never too late to meet your soul mate, Laz, and just by reading your posts and the posts of a number of un attached Ladies on this site, I would say that you and they have a lot in common.
I'm not trying to turn JimRob's site into a dating service-but where else on the WWW can you converse daily with so many members of the opposite sex with whom you have so much in common?
Okay-back to minding my own business and leaving Cupid to his.
I had one near-miss but I was in a bad place, psychologically. At the time I was an active addict; now I am a recovering one. I've grown a lot since then, and I imagine she has too. We were married briefly. But in retrospect, I wonder if the ability to connect to the level you describe was ever there, even with the person I have become.
I'll try not to be cynical, but for me, the concept of love has morphed from that of the Eros to that of the friend. I am greatly loved by my sponsor and by certain other members of Narcotics Anonymous, and I love them as well. It is a neat thing.
But I am convinced, at this point, that Eros-style love is not in my grasp. Not at this time; maybe not ever.
I usually like to joke about getting laid. Today I choose to answer seriously.
