Question - (9 July 2009) 5 Answers - (Newest, 9 July 2009)
A male Canada age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I found Viagra tablets (about 10 bottles, 5 consumed!) when cleaning the house the other day on a day off from work. My wife was out at work that day.

When she came in, I told her what I'd found, and asked her sensitively and calmly if there was anyone else involved, but she said no, and admitted to me that she'd been ordering them online for herself, taking them and had become addicted to them.

I don't get it - a woman addicted to Viagra?

I tried to find out why, but she won't open up to me any more about it.

Our sex life has gone, and I miss that.

In all other respects, our life is good, no other issues there.

What would you do if you were in my situation?

All advice appreciated, Neil

A female reader, anonymous, writes (9 July 2009):

A male poster below says increased bloodflow to the clitoris would be uncomfortable, which is not true. When a women becomes aroused bloodflow DOES increase and the clitoris increases in size. Basically, women get hard ons too, they just aren't really visible. You can feel it though. I've heard a fair number of stories of women using viagra recreationally. I don't think she's seeing someone else. Why would she keep the pills herself? Also since you say nothing else is wrong, I don't think that's the case. I would try to talk to her about rekindling your sex life. Maybe she's feeling, restless about it.

Beingblack agony auntAlthough you don't mention your age, it appears that you are a little young to be suffering from erectile dysfunction.

You need to get to the bottom of your wifes purchase. I don't think she is giving them to someone else, but could she be slipping them into your drinks hot drinks?

As for her addiction story ..... well I have someone very close to me who works for Pzifer in Kent, England. They developed Viagra. It has little or no effect on women, but might possibly cause increased blood flow to the clitoris, which will make it very uncomfortable, as well as HEADACHES. I can't see your wife becoming addicted to that.

Why is there no sex? You say you miss it, so what are you doing about it? Seems to me that your wife is doing something about it, she must miss it to. Perhaps you could talk to each other. It looks like you have some common ground.

Dude,

I think your lady might not be telling you the whole truth here: look at it.

Viagra has no effect other than to increase the labido; a dreadful thing to put upon yourself if you're not going then going to get satisfied.

So why would anyone become addicted to viagra without having some way of receiving gratification when 'high'? Doesn't make sense.

My guess is that she's seeing someone else; maybe she's using the viagra; maybe he is. But I'm extremely dubious of a woman being addcited to viagra without having some way of getting off once she's dropped a couple.

Front her out dude - look her in the eyes. If she won't open up, that's a sign of guilt.

Good luck x
