Libidos, thermostats, affinity for dancing, appreciation for the other’s parents.
It’s a miracle any of us stay married.
Yep, it has been 42 years here. And, my husband’s libido was lower than mine, but we worked it out.
He now has Parkinson’s, and I am his primary caregiver. It is possible to live without sex, and still be content. All the memories of the happy times, and the overcoming of difficult times help us now.
He couldn’t dance either. And, my parents were a nightmare! His were wonderful. Now I am too hot, while he is too cold.
He has a great sense of humor, which Parkinson’s is trying to steal from him.
