I Live In a Sexless Marriage
As some of you may know, I've live with my wife approximately 750 miles from my family and friends for almost 11 years. We met in school, so only about 8 of those years can be attributed to my voluntarily staying here because her family resides here and that she's comfortable here. Beside our obvious sexual problems, I've been trying to move to a neutral location since our graduation, each time being ignored. I feel out of place here and generally uncomfortable with the area. I have no friends here and the only support system here is actually hers.
In the last eight months, I have reconnected with someone from my home town that has ignited a desire in me which I've never felt, my mother has been placed in a home due to severe dimentia and my wife has discovered my liaisons, In addition to this, today our dog, our not joint connection (no kids) passed away. He had been with us through nearly our entire relationship. He had seen the good and the bad. He was the one that received my affection when there was no place else to demonstrate it. At this point it seems like the universe has dispensed with the subtle hints and started to punch me in the face. It looks like someone wants me to leave. The signs could not be more clear note. I miss you, buddy, but I'm accepting the sign. Your sacrifice was not in vain.
