Hi Sabby and thank you for your response. We have discussed this with the psychologist. She says she feels much better about our relationship and says sex will become a part of our marriage again in the future. She says she's just not ready yet.

I do touch her during the day. I give her hugs, rub her shoulders, I give her kisses. She gives very little of this back. I invite her to go out with me without the kids. She generally turns me down but has gone out a couple times. She said she really enjoyed it.

I'm 50 and my wife is 46. She says she's not going through menopause but I wonder if she is at the start and doesn't realize it.

This has been the hardest thing I have ever done. But it is also the most important thing to me. Thank you again.
