[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the wife in this situation. I used to be attracted to DH, like 2x per day. Ever since we had children, I am just not into it. We have been having not great sex for the past decade.

[b]I feel resentful for so many reasons. We have lost that emotional connection. I go from being slightly annoyed to repulsed. I never ever feel in love. The only times we have sex is when I’m half asleep so I’m too sleepy to object. I often feel like I’m on a bad date except we have 3 children together.[/b]

Most people will probably think DH is a great husband and father. There were a lot of guys I went on a date with who May seemed perfectly fine but there was no connection. When you are dating, you can part ways after a month or a year if you are not feeling it. One day, you get married and have a few kids and you are stuck with one another forever.

There are many moments I feel happy because of my children. I enjoy watching my kids play with their dad or when we laugh together and hang out. This does not translate into physical attraction to my husband.

DH comes from a divorced family and wants to stay married. I want to stay married for the kids.[/quote]

OMG this is the saddest post ever. Have you considered counseling?[/quote]

Why is it sad? Aren’t many people on here in sexless marriages?

We still have bad sex a few times a month. We have an intact family and our children are thriving.[/quote]

You sound miserable, frankly. This is no way to live -- for you, forget about the family. You only have sex with him when you're half asleep? You feel mildly repulsed? No more in love feelings?

I'm 15 years in with kids also, of course you don't feel in love every minute of the day but every day? Yes. Without an emotional connection this would be hell.[/quote]
