[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously you just have to reconnect in other ways too. I am guessing not just sex but all intimacy dropped off. So it must come back bit by bit -- walks, holding hands, nonsexual massage, fun stuff together. Build up intimacy and sex should follow[/quote]

Please listen to this very mature and realistic post--and ignore all the posts you'll get that are either mean or rip on women or tell you to ditch your spouse. Work on the marriage as a whole, because you married a whole person, not just a sex partner. Please get some couples therapy so both of you can figure out why you drifted apart before (emotionally, not just physically) and how to prevent it from recurring. The fact that during sex now you are unable to let go of thoughts about past rejection really seems to indicate that you could use some therapy for a time, to give you tools for changing your thinking. Don't blow up your marriage over this if you can both get some help for it. Think about the person you married and your shared experiences and interests and why your spouse's personality attracted you in the first place. Then remember that sex is part of the whole marriage, not the sole reason you got married (right?). Talk with your spouse, do things PP suggests to build intimacy, and consider couples therapy .[/quote]
