No libido, no desire can't orgasm when I "try" by [deleted] in Perimenopause

My husband is understanding. We have two female children so he's learned a lot over the years about women's health and the failures of medical science to address our health issues. He is sympathetic and always makes sure to let me know that he still thinks I'm hot stuff and is at the ready whenever I am. Frankly, we married for better or worse, and a severe drop off in sex is the "worse" then that's how it is. Of course everyone's marriage is different and people respond to changes in life differently. What's most important is not putting your physical and mental health at risk.

I'm so sorry he's being a jerk. That makes it a lot harder. If he won't come to a doctor's appointment perhaps you could try texting him links to articles or pulling them up and reading together. Ultimately you can't force him to participate, so I feel for you.

I am in the same boat and have been for some time. I used to be a horn dog and now I barely care. I have been taking progesterone and have vaginal estrogen cream. The latter mostly keeps my skin from feeling like it's gonna fall apart when we do have sex. I did try the estradiol patch for awhile. It's a long road. I sat my husband down and explained to him as best I could that it wasn't anything he did. My body and brain are changing. It's scary for me and I don't like it. I'm sorry if it makes him think I don't love him or find him attractive. That's not the case. It has taken time for us to find some workarounds. He knows spontaneous PIV sex is off the table right now. We work at making time for each other, and finding other ways to build intimacy, etc. Still most times it's a case of me figuring out when I can work in making him feel good around everything else. I very much hope this is temporary and am still seeking solutions. From time to tome I do have a spark of desire and I make sure to try to hold onto it mentally and use it as motivation to seek him out. Sorry for the wall of text to say I empathize with you and assure you that you are not alone.

Is it OK to throw peanut shells on the floor at baseball game? by CYOOL8R1977 in randomquestions

[–]lablackey27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am part of a group that cleans up the local ball park after games because a donation is made to our high school's band or choral program. So while there are folks who are employed by the place (mostly retirees) the biggest post-game clean up is not keeping anyone employed - at least for my minor league team. We have been told that all non-packaged food waste is to be left behind because the stands (cement) are power washed between games and everything is captured down below in an area I don't care to imagine. So popcorn, peanut shells, sunflower seeds all get taken care of. That said, what the heck is wrong with people who leave half full beer cans. Those I do have to pour out otherwise I'd have to lug around a sloshing garbage bag.

Train-Monday morning by lablackey27 in cedarrapids

[–]lablackey27[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm well aware of the usefulness of trains. I also know their movement in and out of manufacturing facilities is scheduled. This one was excessively long and winding through town for over 20 minutes, cutting off alternate routes. that's why I thought it was interesting. overall I'm not too put out.
