Sorry i am jumping into this late...

So you are 39 and been retired since you were 35? You must have made some really great investments to live that kind of lifestyle, and frankly I am jealous.

I have almost the same profile, 38, been with my wife 18 years, 3 kids, etc.

Our main difference....we both work full time jobs, both professionals.

To me it sounds like you just have to much time on your hands, it's over kill.

JUst get a job to have some fun, same for her, Work out together, play tennis together...something more then just being around each other. Start a small company together, etc. think outside of the box.

I simply know that if my wife and I were around each other all day long we would drive each other nuts, everyone needs space.

I worked the night tour for 5 years at my company, we were like "ships in the night" passing each other, grabbing a "quickie" here and there. then I switched to days, we had to get used to sleeping in bed together, and I had to kick my kids out of our bed.

Plus spice things up a little....arrange a babysitter and take her out for a wild night of dinner and dancing.

my wife and I realized that we did not go on a "date" for 5 years, so one day we decided to go....we had a great time and it made things fun for us, we decided we needed to do this more often. We gone on more dates and gotten a little wilder as we gotten older.

She is your wife, you know what she enjoys....stop feeling sorry for yourself and make it happen.
