[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very common.

Normal advice here: Do you approach her for company/companionship where you're not expecting sex? Are you an equal partner in housework and child care, etc. etc.?

Truth is you can be all these things and still have this problem. Which is immensely frustrating and does lead to the detachment you describe. Been there, done that.

Be good to yourself. You may have to make a little more of an effort to "court" her like you were dating, even if it means "fake it until you make it" given where you are mentally. If that fails, at least you made good faith effort.[/quote]

I used to more, but now I just don't feel as motivated.  I still help but once I'm done, I just leave as I have no interest in sitting around or talking to her.  It's like I just go through the motions.

I want date nights, she just doesn't look like she interested and when we do she's on her phone.  I want to ducking smash that thing.  I like my phone too, but when I want to connect it's off, so is the TV and anything else.

I make a comment and she's like" I'm sorry" and puts it down.  10 minutes later she's back on it again.  I just got a huge bonus, like a massive one.  The last four years I've gotten huge bonuses and a big promotion.  This is after I started at anew place five years ago.

She seeing even know what I did or that I'm getting it.  When I try to talk about it she started looking at her phone so I stopped.  I won't take a back seat to her mobile phone.[/quote]
