perhaps you should think about a different approach to intimacy, one that is not merely sexual

What I'm about to say is blunt, but you asked a serious question, so, here goes... There are two things in your picture that thwart your odds of PHYSICAL intimacy. One is your disability. The other is your age. On a more positive note, what every aging marriage is still entitled to is compassion, love, romance, and all the other things that can still exist when sexual desires have dissolved with age.

You say you are disabled. Does that affect your level of intimacy? You need to talk to your wife about the issues at hand. You might need to develop some innovative ways of doing things.

You didn't provide enough information to be able to give you some 'real' suggestions. Are you male or female? (makes a difference) What is the disability? For how long have you had this issue? More info needed, honey.

I think U need 2 remember Nothing lasts 4ever.
UR in UR 60 for Heavens sake, what do U expect?
Put up & shut up.
Marriage is 4 life, did U take UR vows seriously, in sickness & in health & 4saking ALL others?
Put it out of UR mind, huh?

It may not have anything to do with you. Do the two of you talk? When was the last time the two of you went out on a date? Sit down and express your love to each other. Tell your love one, how much you miss them.

there's different ways to intimacy.. where's there a will.. there's a way...
not too sure what your 'disability' is.. but talk to your partner.. maybe together you can come up with interesting things to do so spice it up...

when all else is gone in a marriage, as long as respect remains, then it should be ok. but once even respect for the spouse is gone, that becomes a serious problem.
in most marriages, as time passes, some love wanes; but its always repect remains that keep people together in harmony.

Maybe you should give it some time. Your question is too general. Try counseling, also different counselors ! Try talking to different people as much as you can. Also read and search different articles on the net as much as you can.
Good luck !

you should define intimacy...and if need be redefine it..and rediscover it...Life is beautiful..the good and the bad..Frustration and dissapointments are all just opportunities to find a way to triumph over something....God Bless
