You helped me and my wife get our sex life back
DEAR DEIDRE: When my wife said she’d rather go to bed with a good book than have sex with me, I was distraught.
Sex had always been a very important part of our relationship, and I wasn’t ready to give it up.
I’m 48 and she’s 49.
Suddenly, if I went near her, let alone touched or kissed her, she’d accuse me of treating her like a piece of meat.
I was at the point of moving into the spare room when I decided to write to you for advice.
You sent me your support packs, Reviving A Woman’s Sex Drive and Love And The Mature Woman.
You also urged me to be honest about my feelings and fears for our marriage.
I took your advice.
She admitted she’d been feeling stressed with work and unhappy about putting on weight.
I reassured her that I still loved and desired her, but missed intimacy.
After our heart-to-heart, we both got emotional, and ended up making love.
Since then, things are much better. We feel closer than ever.
Thank you.

DEIDRE SAYS: Sex is a form of communication between a couple.
That’s why talking honestly can often help to overcome problems in bed too.
I’m happy you are back on track.
