    After our daughter was born , my husband and I went through some sexual issues. Our once strong, stable relationship began to fall apart. I once described it to him like this I had the desire but it was tied up in a neat little somewhere inside me and I wasn't sure how to get it back.

    Lex, you seem to be doing pretty good. My only piece of advice is that you don't begin blaming your wife's problem on yourself. Eventually my husband did just that. We've been together since high school so hearing him blame himself foe things that ad noting to do with him, his physical attributes, or his ability in bed. It was the emotional equivalent of an IED every time I played the "wifely duty" card. It hurt him and it blew my heart to pieces not being able to show my husband how much I loved him in any meaningful physical way.
    Thx for the tip. I will try to remember that.
