[quote=Anonymous]For the last few years, my DW and I have dealt with the day-to-day duties of raising three kids.  With both of us being professionals, are personnel time has vanished.  From morning time with getting the kids ready, breakfast, drop offs, tantrums to the madness of after school activities, homework, dinner, and getting them ready to sleep, it has been difficult to keep the "emotional connection" we once had.  I know that there are married people who are dealing with the same situation.  I love my DW very much but I have seen our affection diminish through the years.  We both understand that we need to spend alone time but it has gone to the point that we do not have sex.  Or if we do, it is a quickie.  I have made it a priority this year to just leave for the weekend with my DW or take days off just to spend with her.  I do miss holding her hand, hugging her, hearing her laugh, etc.

I have read enough postings on DCMD to know marriages can fail if the couple are not "in love" or the "intimacy" fails.  Any guidance on balancing the relationship between H-W and the kids? Our communication is great and I want to be completely honest with her that our marriage of over 20 years is worth rekindling the passion we once had.   [/quote]
