Dear Queenie,
My husband is always complaining that I’m not willing to have sex with him often enough.
I would love to feel like having sex with him but I’m always too tired from working a full-time job and then coming home and looking after our children and having to do all the house-cleaning and cooking and clearing up.
I know he works full time too, but then he comes home and relaxes and watches TV or plays a computer game.
Queenie, how can I get him to help around the house so that I will have the energy for making love with him?—Exhausted wife
Dear Wife,
Have you talked to your husband about this and explained your problem to him? If not, have a long talk with him about it until you think he has heard and understood what you are trying to tell him.
If that doesn’t help, you may need professional counselling – for both of you, would be best. And you should also have a complete physical check-up; make an appointment with your family doctor ASAP and try to have your husband go with you to hear what the doctor says.
