No sex in this marriage
I have been married for 12 years and we were previously very sexually active. Three years ago I became very ill and was in ICU for 6 weeks and on a ventilator for 16 days. I was not expected to live but miraculously I did pull through. I initiated sex about 4 weeis after coming home from the hospital and again about 6 months later,. These are the only times that we have had sex in three years. He never initiates any sex. He never touches me anymore since I got home . I don't know what to think of this behavior. He was always...previous to my illness....wanting sex very often. We are both retired and are at home most of the time together. What do you think is going on in this situation?
Was the problem that nearly killed you something to do with your heart or a stroke? He might be afraid sex will kill you.
