[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Moms often complain that their work is never done, that they have to carry the mental load, and that they often feel guilt that some area of their responsibility is being neglected.  For most of them, I don’t think that beating themselves up for not initiating more is high on their lists of favorite guilt trips.

Ladies, your platonic roommate marriages are just so close to the breaking point, if you only knew.  It may take some other precipitating situation to push him over the edge, but your clear-eyed husband will see that walking away from a roommate situation is not like giving up on a real marriage.[/quote]

I walked away from my roommate marriage and I'm a woman. He wanted sex but did nothing in terms of romance or foreplay.[/quote]

THIS. I told my DH for years what I needed... foreplay, romance, helping out around the house a bit more, etc.  I was sick and tired of no foreplay and basically just jamming it in.  I did my part in other ways for YEARS without getting any kind of reciprocation even after asking over and over.  Last time I initiated he told me he had to work on his laptop...  I am tired of trying and getting rejected or not getting anything out of it.

I have kids so my body isn't the same (neither is his but he didn't get pregnant), but I still eat healthy and go to the gym 4-5x a week.  But having someone make comments on my body especially if we are having an issue over something else doesn't help.

For the majority of our relationship I have initiated, but am tired of doing it.
