Bill sat fuming on the sofa. They'd had this argument countless times over the years and he knew how it ended. He knew the ending so well that he'd given up even trying years ago. Yet here he was again pleading with her for an answer as to why intimacy with him fell below even the her most loathed priorities.
For years he'd convinced himself that their family was enough and that he didn't need intimacy from her. That this was just the way it was. The fire that burned so brightly when they got married slowly dwindled then just died and that's just how it goes. Then suddenly the kids are off at school and it's just the two of them. The dreams of their golden years filled with travel to exotic destinations replaced by the deafening silence of their disconnected existence.
He'd started this conversation hoping for some breakthrough with her. Both in their early 40s and still reasonably attractive they had a long life still ahead of them. He'd hoped to shape it in a way that could make them both happy. Not a demand for sex but a plea for some level of intimacy and a reawakening of the love they had for each other. Instead he found her silent on the sofa across from him with her arms folded and staring into her lap. The same impenetrable defense he'd seen countless times before.
