YOUR MARITAL HEALTH/SEX AND PROBLEMS OF DAILY LIVING: WHY DID THESE PEOPLE LOST THEIR SEXUAL LIFE?
Meet people who almost lost their sexual intimacy for the rest of their lives.
WIFE: “Now that I finally have my own career, every second counts. I take a lot of work home, and when I’m not working, ] talk with the kids. I know I neglect my husband. I have to run twice as fast just to stay even. When you are a woman and a CEO [chief executive officer], you have to prove yourself every day. I’m just too exhausted to have sex most nights. Even when we have it, I àù usually thinking about a damned work problem.”
HUSBAND: “I really think sometimes that we could end up broke. My wife makes much more, I mean much more, than I do, and if she didn’t, my teacher’s salary would never keep us living like we do. Ever since she started making that money, our sex life changed. The roles are just different. I know it sounds small of me, but I just don’t have the pride, the assertiveness I should have with her in our lovemaking. She’s like my superior. I even hate it when she is on top.”
WIFE: “I need friends. He complains that I am always on the phone, but I really give them support and they help me. He thinks I am more into them than into our marriage. He said he waited up one night until midnight while I talked to Cindy. He just stopped wanting sex and he says it’s because I am distracted and ignore him. He resents my involvement with anyone but him. It takes away my respect for him.”
HUSBAND: “I golf. I would golf at night with a ceal miner’s hat on if I could. She doesn’t golf. She isn’t even athletic at all. She is angry because she wanted to make love Saturday morning and I was late for a golf game. It’s my only recreation, my only escape, and I think she is just jealous. She should find her own interests.”
WIFE: “This is our third move in five years. New friends, no old friends, no family, new schools, new stores, same old house problems of moving in again. You can’t spend much time making love if you are never really unpacked. Would you believe that one night I just could not find my diaphragm. I had packed it up somewhere and started tearing through every box in the house. When I came back empty-handed, he was mad and told me to forget the whole thing.”
HUSBAND: “Everybody jokes about retirement; the old gold watch routine. Well, I just don’t know. I lost my energy with this early-retirement thing. I worked twenty years for this, and now it all
Sex and Problems of Daily Living: Why Nobody Has a Sex Life 239 seems kind of empty. We don’t have sex and we haven’t had sex. As soon as retirement neared, I lost my reactions and my sex drive. If it’s in my head, I still can’t do a thing about it. I’m in sexual retirement, too, I guess.”
