I’m in a semi-stale marriage and discovered MRP looking for some answers. By stale I mean our marriage is ok, not bad or great.

I used to think if I got divorced, then I would try to get back into better shape. Thanks to this forum, I realize how backwards my thinking was.

We have two kids: 7 and 4. Wife wants a third. I am done with babies. All the advice I see says STFU and lift, and hold your frame. That’s what I’m doing. Just taking it very slowly.

Wife doesn’t nag me about the third kid, but is very horny and initiates during ovulation. I know she wants a third bc she tells her friends and it gets back to me. We tracked her cycles and used lamb skin condoms during ovulation, which has worked for the 17 years of our relationship.

I just need some help to deal with this difference in desires. She’s 37, I’m 42. I feel like this issue is kind of tricky because it’s so binary.
