    State of the Union.

    Talking with the girls over beers last night. The subject was sex. I thought to myself: I would be really really happy if I never had to have sex with my husband again.

    Is this the thinking of someone whose marriage can work?

    Sorry...doesn't sound particularly promising.

    Yep, I'd say it is safe to call Time of Death on that relationship.

    Hmmmmmm. Hmmm. You guys wouldn't have a vested interest in me being out in the world as a swinging single, would you?

    No, seriously, thanks for the input.

    The Magic 8 Ball has no vested interests, but it would go to drinks with you.

    Hi WG,

    There has to be an epiphany on both sides that the effort to reconcile will be real. That would require radical behavior change on both sides.

    In my crisis with my wife I know she felt the way you do now. But we did get through it, and now things are better than ever.

    That said, how about a Sidecar on Tues. PM? Wife is out of town, and I'll plug the kids into Star Wars Episode II. That should give us about two hours.

    I can do a lot in two hours. ;-)

    Love,

    Chuck

    I have the same thoughts.

    Let's you and me get divorced and shack up together, k? We'll call our house The Love Shack.

    :D

    Anteros: Shake the ball. Shake the ball!

    Chuck: O the sidecar. Second only to the dirty martini.

    AAG: Baby, any home with you in it is no shack.

    Gotta say that I've had similar feelings myself and no it's not good. :-(

    HI WG,

    With good XO cognac, and Cointreau.

    Scrub up those arches, and I promise I'll bite your heels!

    Love,

    Chuck

    I agree with those upthread. It don't look good. I feel the same way about the wife. I wonder how many of us there are out there who are in loveless, sexless marriages?

    eek. never been here before, just read this one, and I gotta say - it's exactly how I felt for freaking years with my husband. The sex wasn't bad, the marriage wasn't bad, I just wasn't there.

    And now I'm not there, and I don't miss it one bit. I'm very glad I'll never have to have sex with that lovely, good-looking, tender-loving man ever again.
