Sorry to hear of these difficult circumstances. Can feel the hurt in what you are saying... I hope that some new hope comes you way today to cheer you up during this holiday season. Thanks for the well wishes. This is the first Christmas since I got married where I went into the holiday season expecting more than disappointment. It makes it that much more of a let down. After years of dealing with this and never hearing anything from either of my churches about this, I quit going. Real marriage issues were never discussed so I stopped attending. It wasn't until I found this site that I started to stand up for myself, and as a result, make some limited progress.

I'm getting there. I'm already feeling better than I was. There won't be much time left though before I have to go back to work. Whole holiday wasted.

I'm with Northstarmom - my SM refuser did not take care of me when I was sick. I had chest pain and ended up in the ER and he couldn't be bothered. I knew he wouldn't take care of me if I got really, really ill.
World of difference with my current partner - he actually looks after me and enjoys doing so.
h if your wife has immune system issues, fair enough, but there are ways of taking care of your partner while maintaining hygiene protocols. Notes, foods, asking after your health, etc.

To me, those things, in the absence of sex, are infuriatingly frustrating.
