Ask Amy: Waning sex life not necessarily the norm
You can also respond with a non sequitur that discourages follow-through: “Ha ha, you guys are so curious!”
Dear Amy: “Wanting to Want” wasn’t particularly eager to “partner up.”
I was in her/his shoes at one point. I had a satisfying life as a singleton.
Suddenly, everyone was getting married, having babies, etc., and I felt like an outcast. I wondered what was “wrong” with me.
It took a while, but finally I decided to stop wanting and just start enjoying.
Low and behold, the next person I dated, turned out to be my spouse going on 30 years. Sometimes when you stop looking, the apple falls into your lap.
— Happy
Dear Happy: And if the apple doesn’t fall into your lap, you still get to live a satisfying life.
