listener questions and comments:

• Bonnie - I went through Retrouvaille couples counseling. I didn't care how many women my husband had been with. However, I did ask for a divorce.
• Mary - I am divorced. Can you explore the idea of a women being done with men. I've had some counseling and some ideas. We're not intended to be alone.  I need help.
• Jane - Women who are married to sex addicts need support.
• Martha - I was the other woman. The conscience ate at me and I struggle to this day, but my husband and I did go through counseling and it helped immensely.
• Richard - I was told in counseling that being denied affection could be a form of infidelity. What do you think?  I've been with same woman for 40 years and there has been no intimacy or affection for the last 20 years.
