“You might need something to hold on to When all the answers, they don’t amount to much Somebody that you could just to talk to And a little of that Human Touch”
– Human Touch (Bruce Springsteen)
Neil had been humming “Human Touch” – a famous number by Bruce Springsteen on his way back home, lost in pain and sadness after falling out with Sharon, his wife. It has become now a ritual for him, to which he has found no way out. After an argument between him and Sharon a few weeks back, they are staying apart. No doubt, both of them are justified on the grounds as far as compatibility is concerned, but there is something that still remains amiss in their relationship. But why is Neil addicted to Human Touch? In the context of his married life, what does this particular song signify?
Neil has been going through a lot after his separation from Sharon. He is thinking that Sharon might need to talk with someone she can be herself and feel free. To his disbelief, Neil cannot see himself fitting to that role. He, at his point, may be thinking right, but isn’t Neil missing out on a very important point about their relationship? He works until late at night, so does Sharon. Both of them get a very little time to spend with each other. As a man, Neil may still have the stamina and desire to have sex with his wife, but is there any possibility that Sharon’s sexual desire is dwindling? Commonly known as female sexual dysfunction (FSD), this condition is running rampant among many working-class women. Usually, it is characterized by poor feminine hygiene and low female sex drive. These issues can result in painful intercourse, and difficulties in reaching orgasm. If you are in the same boat as Neil, there are a number of things that you can do to recapture the spark in your relationship.
