Is it resisting if I take care of my own needs on my own schedule so I don't even have any of those feelings when she is around? That has been my modus operandi for the entire 7 yr marriage..... I got tired of the rejection so this helps avoid that feeling...

I got tired of the rejection so this helps avoid that feeling... I used to wait until she was passed out in bed before I'd see to myself, hoping that maybe sometime she'd express an interest in having some fun. I quit doing that during the last sexless cycle before this one, where we went almost 4 1/2 months without, because I was tired of getting my hopes up.

Right now, if my wife came onto me and wanted sex, I would turn her down cold. It would not be payback of any kind; rather it's because I don't trust her with my feelings anymore. I've had them hurt too often by her. There have been too many times where she has ignored what I want, or led me on then turned around and said "I just want to cuddle." Maybe she does have feelings for me, but she doesn't have a clue how to show it. And I don't have the time to teach a 50-year-old woman how to show it. If she hasn't listened before, she won't listen now. But I think it is more of the fear she will lose me and the financial support I bring her. In that case, I would rather see a professional. Paying for sex would be more honest.

Sounds like the damage has been done.

Chatter Fox, you are not alone. I went through this tug of war...go or stay...every day for 25-years. I'm not exaggerating, it was every single day. It was exhausting. I am now over 60. It started before my 37th birthday. I don't trust anyone, and doubt I ever will. I am single, but I'm burned out on pretty much everything. The longer it goes on, the more damage sustained to your own wellbeing. I hope you find a way to inner peace, and leave this state of purgatory. No good can come from it. Namaste
