A long time since last intimate moment........

Okay, so I understand that having MS makes feeling intimate with someone different than it had previously. What I mean is I know that it may "not happen" but its the closeness that I am really missing. The hugs and the kisses. I remember once right after he was DX that he said to me "Hugs just don't feel the same". I know he didn't mean to hurt me, he was just sharing his feelings. Trying to be honest. Trying to explain what he was going through. I appreciate that believe me I do. I don't want to sound like I'm complaining. Although in all reality I am. Just because the hugs don't feel the same for him, doesn't mean they feel any different for me. I still need to feel that closeness and wonder if I ever will again. How can I live without that closeness. Its always been the one thing that would bring me comfort. A big hug from my man; We called them "power surges". Because that's what they were. So you see its not the sexual intimacy that I miss the most, its the spiritual, the feeling of "ONE".
