[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH here. DW is not very affectionate. Funny about that saying to look at your MIL to see what your DW will look life..well didn't realize the same holds true for personality traits. There is no physical connection, but the lack of an emotional one is worse - would never have understood how someone could be lonely if they were married. I do now and its hard. Harder then those that have not experienced might think.[/quote]

So, you could be my DH (except the part about my mother).  My DH is just way too over the top with his affection. It can be too much. Something is not special when it is handed out constantly at all times, it kind of ruins the mystery.  We do have sex, not as much as DH would like, about 1x/week because I'm tired. I know it is exhaustion because we just went on vacation together for a week and had sex daily.  I feel like so many people want so much from me, the kids, my work, running the house ( and he IS a good partner in that), but sometimes I just want to be left alone.

Have you said what you are saying here directly to your wife?  about being lonely? I wonder if my DH feels this way, he has told me that he feels like he loves me more than I love him and it was pretty sad to hear come out of his mouth, so I'm trying harder to show it more.  DO you think your wife would agree with you and your statements above about not having an emotional connection? Because when my DH said that to me, i did not feel the same way, but know I need to make changes.

I think for people like yourself and my DH, we are attracted to each other for a dysfunctional reason. You probably really liked the hunt and the chase, but it eventually turned into this. Love addicts and love avoiders most often come together.[/quote]

PP here. Lady you don't have a clue. Who said anything about over the top affection. You talk about sex once a week - we haven't had sex in years. We barely touch. Can you please get your head out of your ass.[/quote]
