security 'bad news for sex drive' differences in sexual appetite may be driven by evolutiona woman's sex drive begins to plummet once she is in a secure relationship, according to research.. researchers from germany found that four years into a relationship, less than half of 30-year-old women wanted regular sex.
conversely, the team found a man's libido remained the same regardless of how long he had been in a relationship.
Male menopause, didn't think about that one! I know some men have to give themselves injections of testosterone. Sometimes the body just doesn't produce enough, that would certainly make his libido take a nose dive.
Make sure he gets a thorough check up.

i think i fixed my computer..... it was always turning off for no reason.
i opened it up and cleaned the fan, and the computer goes well now....lets hope it will last.. other than that, i don't fix many things.. .
My driveway.
Up by the house the drive is concrete. It was pitted and stained and looked yucky. I bought concrete resurfacer to spruce it up. Prepped the area, mixed, squeeged and trowled. It looks much better now.
Tonite I'm learning how to change the sparkplugs on my suv and do an oil change.

but i should add that i/we can only say that with about 99.9% certainty.

Oh Juni, that is a difficult situation.
I take it he's been thouroughly checked out by a Dr/Urologist? There are certain medications that can cause that problem, one that comes to mind are blood pressure meds.
That is a very difficult problem for a man to have, and rather that deal with it, they shut down, and shut you out. If all the medical things check out, there may be some underlying psycological things he needs to deal with through therapy.
I hope things start looking "up" for you soon!!!

okay i've been fading for eight months .
i do wedding photography and this coming weekend i am scheduled to do a witness wedding from my former hall .
they booked last year before my fade, and surprisingly have not dropped me .
The best thing you can do is show them how great you are doing since "fading".
JW's think your life goes down the toilet once you leave the org. Make sure you let them know how happy you are, how good your business is doing, how wonderful your family is.
Oh, and - no FAKE smiles from you. You don't have to fake being happy anymore!!

HHmm, does that mean I don't think I'm in a secure relationship?
Hubby and I kinda go through different levels of shall we say "need". I just wish we could go through these spells at the same time!!! His job is harder and more tiring to do in the summer, so he's pretty much interested in getting all the sleep he can, where as I'm off and well, sleep is not my number one priority right now!! (If you catch my meaning.) It's the opposite in the winter. My job is very demanding in the winter and his is easier. Oh well, some things you have to learn to live with!

i do.... when i was young my mom kept us from speaking to my non witness dad about anything that might upset him .we also could not openly share our problems of being witnesses at school, like the ridicule we endured for not saying the pledge or celebrating holidays .
we had to say we were happy not having birthday parties even if that really was not true .
my husband was raised in an abusive household and must have learned some of those same lessons .
The point is, being open about my malady relieved his anxiety and I know that if he ever has a problem he'll confide in me. That is SO important!
You are right Dansk! You should be able to confide in your parents. Unfortunately that is something I've never been able to do with my mother. I learned that at an early age, and also learned how to hide things. That is not a healthy way to deal with your problems, and it certainly wasn't a healthy relationship with my mother.
Because of her hiding things in our family I'm so angry with her for allowing us to be around a child molester!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She still won't admit openly to us that she knew about him. The closest she came, with out actually admitting it is that she should have listened to us when we told her about him. Maybe another child wouldn't have been molested and he would have been in jail alot sooner!

Oh yeah! My mother is a mix of yours and mrsjones. She thinks if you don't talk about problems, they will somehow go away.
She doesn't want to talk about anything that might upset HER, but doesn't mind bringing up anything that might upset US.
My brother and I tried to talk to her about some things that happened to us as kids, and because my father has passed, didn't want to hear anything that pertained to him. She also refused to take any responsibility for these things. They are wounds that fester.
When I told her I no longer want to go to meetings etc, she totally freaked! Said she never wanted to talk to me again etc. When she came to her senses some time later, she said she wanted a relationship with me, but didn't want to talk about "all that other stuff". Totally buries her head in the sand.
BUT, when she wants to bring things up, well all I can say is LOOK OUT. I've learned how to totally tune her out when she gets like this. It's always a one way conversation, you can't reason with her.
My hubby came from a family that doesn't talk about things either and it's been a struggle for me to make sure we don't ignore any problems and talk things out. It's much healthier in the long run.

a little prayer for my hubby and i would be greatly appreciated.... grandma passed away last night battling cancer...we stayed by her side to the end... she was a lovely lady...we will miss her tremendously... i could go on forever on, how young she was at heart....... many thanks,.
morty
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss.
Grandmother's (and gfathers) hold a special place in our lives. I miss my grammy so much, but have wonderful memories of her.
Hold those memories close to your heart.

i got a weird call from a work mate last night.
she's going through hell for the past year or so with her soon-to-be ex, who had been carrying on an affair and stopped sharing their family expenses.
long story short, he's out of the house now and has left her and their kids out in the country without any transportation.
You did the right thing Scully.
If she does legally have joint ownership, she needs to get her lawyer involoved and/or the police, not you.
You could end up with a criminal record helping her with something like this that would take alot of time and money to clear up.
If you want to help her in some way, maybe you could rally some friends to help with transportation/shopping, etc.
I think this stepped over the bounds of friendship, this is using.
