DEAR ABBY: I have been in a relationship for four years. My partner has fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis.
When we met, he had just found out. He was still active, working and we had sex regularly.
Fast forward: He is now on disability, not working at all, we rarely sleep together and he never leaves the house. I love him still, but I didn’t realize how hard this would be. I know he has a lot to cope with, but it’s hard on me as well.
I have to work, do most of the chores and beg him to go out.
