[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP,
Most of your discontent has to do with sex. It is mentioned over and over. How often are you getting it on now? Did you feel rejected when it was less and did that play into your feelings changing? His saying you have no problems or whatever sounds pretty dismissive. What IS working about your relationship? What are specific things you want from him and have you asked for them?[/quote]

I see the same thing. I relate to a point, OP. I still like and love my husband, but I recognize your feelings and shared them for quite a while. My husband was the same way with my first pregnancy (and very early on, which is why it was problematic) and I definitely took it personally. Honestly, our sex life has never fully recovered - I got so accustomed the lack of intimacy that it became the new status quo that I can't be bothered to change. I don't turn him down, but I never initiate anymore. I was always a very physical person but I feel like that part of me died when he refused to touch me or about 8 months. Maybe that will get better with time, too, though he'll need to step up his fairly lazy game to make it happen. There's something very wounding about your husband finding you repulsive, even if you know it's temporary and they're weirded out by the woman-as-mother thing. I recommend couples therapy if time isn't healing the wound.[/quote]
