Dear Queenie,
My wife has started the change of life [menopause] and doesn’t want any kind of sexual contact any more. I could get along without sex, but I miss having any signs of affection.
Queenie, what can I do?—Frustrated husband
Dear Husband,
There are medical treatments that would help your wife deal with sexual contact. And professional counselling (Yes, I know I recommend this all the time!) would help her understand how to deal with your emotional needs.
