Also the husband here could be just not a match in sexuality department or just personalities don’t match. Or maybe people have some traits. I don’t know how it’s helpful to diagnose yourself or others with an actual disorder. We can talk ourselves into having every disorder on the planet by googling things and applying it to people and situations randomly.

No one was diagnosing. We’re just kicking around possibilities. The tactile sensory thing is a part of the whole spectrum thing, from ADHD to Autism. I have always had more sensitivity to it. We’ve suspected ADHD in my family in my grandfather, my mother and her sister, my one sister and myself. We saw it as an inability to relax. For example; my grandfather could not sit still, literally, he had to keep moving and if sitting, his legs would be tapping, his hands would be playing with the silverware. Two of my sons have been diagnosed ADHD. So, there’s nothing wrong with discussing that there might be something to this at play here with me. Although I have broached it with several doctors, they brush me off. I don’t insist and hammer them to force them to discuss it. That’s my experience of what has happened.
I respect your wanting to adhere to guidelines here, but we aren’t violating them.
