[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No sex for the last 4 years since our daughter was born.[b] DH is a great father and does a bulk of the childcare and housework all by himself.[/b] He has career frustrations. He used to be physically affectionate but his work worries went into high gear and there is very little touching. He has always been a teller. A lot of yelling when he is frustrated. We never had much sexual attraction, now it is non-existent. Married for 10 years, together for 15.

I am not entirely blameless. I had a rough time after childbirth, currently am contemplating a job change and stressed about it. I have a crush on my married coworker ( work with him only 2-3 times a month when necessary and otherwise avoid interacting with him). Guess I am emotionally cheating and realize it is because my needs are not being met.

I go through days when I wish things were better in my life and think of ways to fix things. Other days, I wish I had the courage to make a clean break and get a chance to start over with somebody else. Whenever I suggest a divorce, DH acts like I am crazy. I have considered marriage counseling but I think they will tell us to connect and have sex.

If you have been in a similar situation and managed to resolve it, do you have advice for me?[/quote]

Unburden him here.  God, I do all that, and can barely make it through the day (I work as well).  I have to do almost everything in the family.  I feel like the slave.   No time to myself ever.   If he's anything like me, sex will be the last thing he wants to do, too.   Maybe he's overwhelmed.[/quote]
