28 h. ago My wife has decided she’s done with sex – could it be the menopause?

After eight years together, she says she loves me and there is no one else. But she can’t tell me why she no longer wants to be intimate. I am afraid this will end our marriageMy wife has decided she is done with sex. She hasn’t given a particular reason. I asked if there may be a deeper resentment about me – but she said not. I asked if she perhaps had feelings for other men – but she said not. She is in the later stages of menopause – eight years ago, when we first met, it was a bigger part of her life. But last week she just said that although she loves me very much, and there are no issues, she doesn’t want to have sex or anything else. She wants me to be there for her as a celibate partner, indefinitely, leaving me, faithfully, in limbo. I love her, but I feel the lack of physical intimacy could break us up. No doubt your wife’s decision is devastating for you, and you may have to decide if this new scenario is possible for you, but it would probably be worth trying to glean mo...

2 w. ago Digested week: Magic Circle and life in the Vatican return to our psyche

Disappearances of a school and handbag of head of Homeland Security past the Secret Service remain unexplainedI did what a lot of people did on hearing news of the death of Pope Francis on Monday: I watched Conclave. The Oscar nominated movie, adapted from the Robert Harris novel, unpacks the process of electing a new pope and between Sunday and Monday, it enjoyed a 283% surge in streaming figures. I’d like to say it deepened my understanding of life in the Vatican, but the truth is it just made me wish we could have Ralph Fiennes for pope, while reminding me – I’m not alone in this – that we’ve seen quite enough of Stanley Tucci for the time being.
