I have had RSD for 5 years now and sex is out of the question. even though i offer to please him, because h isnt bad off like me, he just says no..its no fun if he cant make me happy too. So we try to find a few thngs to do together. in the nice weather we yard sale. i cant get out of the car, but we just enjoy being together. he i very funny, so he is always thinking up silly things to say or do to make me laugh. we definitely have our moments getting on eachother nerves, but i try to not be demanding of things i need, because he i mostly me legs and he tries to let me help where i can. like folding laundry or choping vegeltables when he is cooking. I know its hard, but try to make eachother smile. write eachother a love letter and try to appreciate the little things.
hope this helps a little
