That craving for physical affection - let alone intimacy - sucks. I used to go for a full body massage when it got really bad and sometimes a foot massage or head massage helps. I don't know if you know the sitcom Frasier (one of my favourites). The two male leads (brothers) both go through dry patches and in one episode Niles talked about how you can tell the level of sexual frustration someone is experiencing by how often they head to get their nails done. “Manicurists, pedicurists, facialists. When you see a man who’s well-groomed, you can bet he’s not getting any.” Well if well-manicured hands and feet are the sign, I've apparently been a walking billboard advertising my sexless marriage. But your hot so it's ok. |

Well if well-manicured hands and feet are the sign, I've apparently been a walking billboard advertising my sexless marriage. But your hot so it's ok. Hot is not something I ever felt about myself, but thank you. I think the Frazier writers were on to something there though. My manicures and pedicures serve two purposes which might be common to people in sexless marriage. 1) it's time someone does something caring for me. It's someone touching me and pampering me who is not me. I think I connect with my two favorite nail technicians better than I was connecting with my ex at the end. 2) I get a self-esteem boost when I feel like I look my best. Of course that's likely the case for everyone but because my sexless marriage made me feel like an invisible unattractive person, I think I started over-compensating in a desperate attempt to become visible again. Very sad. |

JMX, I understand why you would feel this way, but you are actually quite beautiful.

I always feel like this: Honey, you are gorgeous, you need to drop that thought right now. I promise you, as soon as you are ready you are going to have men popping up in all kinds of unexpected places. You wait and see if I am wrong. |
