When are people going to realise that a bedroom cuddle and a laugh are far more natural and effective health remedies than any pill or potion?
I split from my ex-, the love of my life, over 3 years ago. By this time she had developed a terrible illness which made penetrative sex impossible.
We remained soulmates and still had occasional ‘waist-up’ overnighters involving lots of kissing and cuddling, which really energised me from what was otherwise a cocoon of despair and loneliness.
This year even that oasis has gone. I need a cuddle like a vampire needs blood. Consequently, I have lost my natural lifeforce and feel dreadful and very lowly calibrated.
I enjoyed a wonderful sex life before becoming isolated, but can honestly say I miss the snuggling and the closeness and the giggles you get at bedtime even more than sex.
I have not had a day off work sick for 24 years, but feel – deprived of this basic human need – that day will soon come. I have hit rock bottom, but still try and find at least 3 things to laugh about each day.
And yet … and yet … and yet … if a man asked a woman back to his place for a cuddle, he would be laughed out of the pub (and vice-versa). Keep smiling, peeps! x
