My testosterone levels were checked a couple of years age and I was found to have low t. I've done nothing about it. I'm not doctor but I've heard enough about low T to know that this could be a huge source of your problem. Low T leads to low energy, depression, etc. I'd make an appt today. Getting that rectified could have a dramatic change for you. In a lot of different ways . For example, if you ain't got the drive you're surely not going to be able to meet her need for SF. If you're edgy it could be due to a depressed state.

I'm not doctor but I've heard enough about low T to know that this could be a huge source of your problem. I agree with MrAlias. I was diagnosed with low testosterone, and at the time of diagnosis I felt out of energy all the time, had little motivation to do things, low libido, felt generally depressed. Since going on testosterone supplementation, those areas have all improved. Testosterone is an important part of what makes you a man, and you should try to keep your levels in the normal range. Note that if you do get supplementation, you won't notice a difference right away; it took me a month or two before my body absorbed enough of it to where I noticed a difference. Another potential reason for having no sexual intereest in your wife is pornography. Do you view it?

No I do not view it.
It was my anniversary earlier this week. It didn't start off well. We had a big argument about the sex thing again. Additionally, I didn't plan ahead to manage to get my wife a card or present before the day (due to the suspended driver's license). My wife asked me if I had got her a card the last time I walked down to the corner and I told that I had not. Nor had I arranged a babysitter to go out. She was very upset about it. So she told me not to order in any food or try to arrange anything at the last minute. So I bundled up 3 kids and made the trek to the corner to get a card, gift and food to make for dinner. The steak ended up overdone and the potatoes underdone.
We've had a few occasions this week where she has been frustrated with me. When she gets upset, I get a stressed look on my face that she doesn't like. Does anyone have some helpful suggestions on eliminating this?

Why do you not have a drivers license?

Not fetting around to doing things you could have planned in advance like irganizing your wife's birthday, again, sounds too familiar. **edited**
I am assuming that you do think your wife's birthday is important and you were not purposely trying to annoy her...
God bless,
Happyheart

I made the appointment to see the first doctor to get the referral. However, due to the weather, I had to cancel the appointment. I've rebooked but I will go to the walk-in clinic to get the referral.
The suspension was due to a seizure.

To be more specific. This is the third time that I have lost my license due to a seizure during my marriage. I have had the seizures due to not following my doctor's recommendations. It includes exercise and stress reducing activities.
Losing my license is hard on my wife. She has to drive the kids to their activities 7 days a week. Shopping/erands/etc...

Is this the reason you are unemployed, no drivers license and the seizure issue?

No. I was told two months ahead of when my contract was to end that it wouldn't be renewed. The seizure just put it over the edge.
I've had a lot of problems with over the last few years with my jobs.
Tomorrow, I will ask my wife to fill out the emotional needs and lover busters survey.
