The confronting and confessing thing is so hard, but soooooo necessary. The two quotes above are spot on too. I’ve only been married a year, but this is definitely true, it just sums everything up.

Don't give up, life is full of changes and troubled marriages can change if two are willing to work at it! Nice post thanks so much!

Therefore, sexual tension/desire/and/or romantic love tends to become an issue more often in my relationships with males if there's attraction on either side because there is no release sexually; either we move toward a romantic relationship, with the understanding that we're waiting until we're married to express our love/desire sexually, or...we don't move towards that and thus deal with the tension/issues as they come and arise. Which means, very often, "friendships" don't work out (while some, obviously do). I loosely hold to the "When Harry Met Sally" line of thinking but experience has taught me it is more often too true than not. But maybe it's just me. ;p You’re also both over complicating the situation.
