Thank you for this piece. I am 61, I love my husband, but have had no interest in sex for at least 4 years. “What’s wrong with me?” I agonize. It’s such a taboo subject too, NOBODY, talks about it, so I feel like I’m the only one.

Wow. I certainly saw myself here. I worried that my lack of interest in sex had to do with my anger and frustration in my relationship with my husband. When he became very ill, I realized that our relationship was based on feelings of care and friendship and, companionship and that these feelings are more important than our physical desire for each other. I'm comfortable with this.
