I think it would make a world of difference for you to have a partner in the truest sense of the term and someone who could love & cherish you in your day to day life. If hubby would be able to fill this role, maybe something to consider?
No, I just asked my H again about counseling. We saw my T a few times several years ago. My T gave me some good suggestions at my session this week, and my H was agreeable. He can't change his personality; he loves me but doesn't show it. So I have to help him.

In winter I thought I would have to quit around March, but my T is giving me a reduced rate. I had to cut sessions down to twice a month instead of weekly, but at least I don't have to quit!

T now wants me to "take in" the good feelings that holding her hand gives me. It's part of my therapy. I sure NEVER expected that! I wish all Ts allowed touch.
Thanks for this!
