Question - (8 December 2006) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 December 2006)
A female age 51-59, *achy72 writes:

Dear Cupid,

I am 34 years old and I have been married to my husband for 10 years now - he is 51 years old.

I have brought up his 2 daughters and both have moved out now. My husband had a vasectomy and has tried a reversal about 5 years ago - this did not work.

He has always been very active and is heavily involved in football which keeps him busy either at home or out 3 days a week.

Feelings of loneliness have always been there but of late I find myself becoming more and more depressed and thinking about children more frequently.

I have tried to speak to him about this and he just says he will be home more - but nothing changes.

I so still love him but I am now at the point where I need to do something else I will be stuck in this forever.

How do I tell him that I still love him but want more - without him just promising everything??

Do I tell him I want children - even though I know it will hurt him.

I dont know what to do.

HELP

maxsteel86 agony auntHmmm keeping it all bottled up will eventually make you resent him. I dont know if the vasectomy can be reversed but surely there's some other method? Like taking out the sperm and injecting into the egg?

Tell him about how you're feeling. Atleast that way, you wont have to carry this crappy feeling by yourself
