OP here. DH wants sex. I am the one who doesn't want it. When I was pregnant, I didn't want it either. I was too busy puking. I had terrible morning sickness all day and night.

I'm 33 and fairly attractive. I am back down to 120 pounds and a size 4. I can't help but think DH is not my soul mate and someone out there can make me happier. If it weren't for the kids, I would have left long ago. I don't doubt we can make it work in the short term but I am certain we won't last forever. If I know we will most likely separate, I would prefer to do it when I am still relatively young.

My unhappiness has little to do with sex. I am emotionally unhappy. Secondly, I feel like my sex drive is nonexistent. I am assuming my lack of physical attraction has to do with my mental dislike for my husband.[/quote]

I have news for you.  You're 33 and fairly attractive?  Well, your competition will be the 25 - 28 year old women who don't have toddlers, don't have an ex-husband, and don't need babysitters.  Your husband won't have a problem bringing on a younger and more enthusiastic partner because You Get The Kids!  See how attractive he looks when he has some young adoring thing on his arm and he is dropping off the kids.

Get real.

I was actually trying to be humble. Humility on an anonymous forum probably sounds like insecurity.

DH earns a very healthy six figure salary with seven figure potential, is handsome, fit and has a decent personality. He can be quite the charmer when he wants to be. I am sure he would do well out there in the dating world.

When DH and I first started dating, he tried very hard to win me over. Eventually he did win me over, which is why I married him. The problem is that since we had children, he stopped trying. We are both sleep deprived and the day to day of having two young children has taken its toll on us.

We are both committed to trying to improve the marriage. I will try for our children's sake.[/quote]
