    After several tearful phone calls from New York City and me sticking to my guns I think Liza is starting to get the idea that this is long term, and that she has to address her problems before we can address OUR problems.

    Get's tough, especially the no sex part, and she plays that card every phone call, promising all kinds of kinky nasty things to me when she comes home. COLD SHOWERS and hand exercises.

    Thanks for all the support gang.

    This can't be easy Yeru - but you seem to have a lot of strength & courage. Maybe this is exactly what she needs to truly take responsibility for her own mental health, to the betterment of your entire family.

    Good luck w/those cold showers though - don't let yourself get to wrinkly!!!

    My thoughts & prayers are with you. How's everything going in your church too btw?

    Yeru, good for you to stick to your guns. Things wont get better unless you do.

    Have you considered "dating" her? I mean, let her live away and deal with her problems but once in a while (when you're really horny) take her out to dinner and a motel room.

    It could get hard on both of you to be "faithful" if you don't have a sexual outlet. I know that with my drug addicted/alcoholic first hubby I tried sooo hard to stay separated until he resolved his problems. It would never last because I got too horny. Now looking back I think I could have just had sex when I felt like it and not let him move back in. Eventually in our case it still would have ended in divorce, but at least I wouldn't have suffered.

    Just my 1/2 cents worth.

    Keep sticking to your guns, my friend. And remember sex is like poker - you don't need a partner if you've got a good enough hand. (Not only that but most sex happens between your ears, after all. I've heard it said a hundred times "No woman can screw like I can masterbate." Woody Allen said it first I think, and it sounds just like him.)

    You're doing the right thing. Get her to get herself fixed first. THEN you've got a situation where two complete independant adults can come together like adults and do a deal.

    As a passer-by once said emphatically to me after I had given someone a calm rebuff in public:

    "Deah ya go, baby! Don't let tha jive turkey be messin' witcha cool!"
