Hi,
I need some advice. I will be married 35 years next year to the same woman. My wife and I have never spoken about separating or getting a divorce. I love her very, very much and she means the world to me. I have never touched another woman and as far as I know she has not been with another man. I am concerned, and I don't know if she is bored with me or just not interested in showing affection or what. About a month ago, we had a very candid conversation about how much we meant to each other, but it seems like the last two-three weeks when I tell her I love her or try to touch her she just seems indifferent or not interested. I will say she works very hard, on the average 12 hours a day. Maybe she just has alot on her mind... I asked her the other night if she was mad or upset with me and she apologized and said didn't realize anything. We still have an active sex life, but it just seems like over time, I am doing much more to please her than she does for me and it bothers me. I am afraid of losing this connection. I don't want to be one of these couples that just sit and stare at the tv and never communicate. Please give me some advice, I have no one to talk to about this.

I still think our relationship is very solid because we are buying a new house and she talks about us growing old together in this new house. I'm just concerned about us becoming stale/dead in our relationship.
