On the other hand are you sure you're not menapauphobic?

Last I checked, men can't catch it from their wives.

Well, okay, Chris ... you 'have' one -- LOL:

... a 'menopausal woman,' and you 'love her.'

Terrific!

Is she grateful that you 'stand by her' in these 'trying times?'

What is most interesting to me is that anybody I know and have known, including my mother, didn't have any 'problems' 'going though' menopause. LOL!

It's a great myth!

I'm curious now as to your remark here, "if you can't get a bit of fun in your life, what's the point of being alive?? "

How are you relating this to living with -- and LOVING, of course -- a 'menopausal woman,' if I may be so bold as to inquire?

>>I just accept that certain things happen to some/most women during that time of their life, and to fail to recognize it is like failing to recognize that normal, healthy 19 year old guys think about sex every now and then.

There are certain facts of life. There are stages people go through. Why pretend otherwise?

And it's like other parts of life -- if you can't get a bit of fun in your life, what's the point of being alive?? <<


Hi Chris...

"Why pretend otherwise?"

I think that is a good question.....
I accept certain things about myself genetically, things I cannot change. I accept things about my husband in the very same way. After all, we're both only human on the inside.

Facts of life, stages.....

It's true. For example did you know that there are studies that show women who live together intimately (dorms, for example) eventually have their monthly cycles synchronize? It's hard for me to understand how that can happen, but apparently it does.

Oh the wonders of the mind/body connection.

:)
