- I am fairly new to this site, but just in the past few days i have met a handful of new friends (each with our own struggle) and I actually look forward to see how everyone is doing.Please forgive me but I am naturally curious (want to learn and...
- I am very glad that I did join this site and this group. As I learn not only that I am not alone I hear of so many of us dealing with different situations. I am trying to understand why we do stay in a relationship when we are not getting what we...
- I am new here and could use any help or advice anyone has to offer.I am 55 and have been married almost 15 years. My husband has not touched me for more than 10 of them. i can't tell you how hard it is for me lately.I never expected to find...
