I’m in my 70’s and dearly love my husband of over 20 years. I’ve known he is asperges as we have in the family. I have tried my best to find communication in a loving way. He now agrees - reluctantly- of his situation. But I’m worn down, and suffer from health problems. Can anyone chat with me about finding a way forward.

It feels lonely not having anyone who understands my situation even amongst close friends and family
