Dear Ann Landers,
y hus-band has been impotent for the past five years-which means no sex what-ever. Being a loyal and highly prin-cipled woman, I could not bring my-self to cheat on him. So I haven't had any sex either. Will you please educate your male readers who are in the same boat as my husband? A wife can live without sex, if her man can't perform, but she cannot live without affection. The very least a hus- band can do is hold his wife in his arms and tell her he loves her. I have never made one unkind re-mark to him about his inability to per-form. I know it must bother him terri-bly and I don't want to add to his unhappiness. But don't you think I am entitled to some consideration? It would take so little for him to make me feel wanted and loved. I have asked my husband to go to a doctor, but he refuses. He comes home THE ANN LANDERS ENCYCLOPEDIA 689 from work, eats dinner (reading a newspaper at the table) and proceeds to get drunk. This goes on seven nights a week. I need some help. WITHER-ING ON THE VINE

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
