I should stress, the hypocondria remark..was in my opinion, and I'm not a doctor. It just seemed, over the years, every time a new "condition" came up, she seemed to have it. Frankly I'm surprised she takes so many meds or rather is able to get them, unless she's seeing different doctors. I know from years ago, she thought she needed to take a pill to go to sleep and another (at the same time) to make sure she woke up at a reasonable time the next day. This was in her early 30s. I didn't buy that then, and don't now. But she believed she had to take these. It could be she *actually* needs them...I'm not a doctor, but I really can't believe anyone needed as much meds as she did at her young age (then 30s..now late 40s) outside of someone with a disability or life-threatening condition. I've not seen her in years, and I was shocked at how ravaged she looked when I saw her yesterday. She's 48 and looks 60...and not a healhful 60. So maybe I was wrong to jump the gun. I did suggest they talk to a doctor and see if the meds were affecting her libido, and to see what's needed and what's not. That could also be a good thing, in that she would only be on what she needed if any. The husband, probably has his faults, but he's as nice a guy as you could meet. I get the impression, that she pretty much is the leader in that marriage, not him. If she doesn't want him to do something, he doesn't. Hence, the reason I think they "could" be having sex, but then again..I'm making assumptions, and I don't even live in the same town, much less the same house. I feel sorry for him. Sex is a built in natural drive, like hunger...there's nothing wrong with him, for wanting to have sex with his WIFE! I don't see how he stands it, or hasn't cheated (which he says he hasn't...)
