[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really feel for all you men. I'm a DW in the same situation. I like the approach the PP had who basically said it's going to happen once a week, we'll make it fun, etc. Unless there is a serious health issue, sex one a week should be happening in a healthy marriage.

The crying thing is not ok. It seems very manipulative...either she's way too sensitive or she's in fact manipulating you from bringing this up again. This is a valid issue you have a right to discuss in an adult manner.[/quote]

I'm a DW too and DH lost interest in me sexually with my first pregnancy.  I've suggested similar things to this (i.e., every day for a week!), but basically got rejected.  I'd like to try this, but I'm afraid of that rejection too.  Even if he said yes, I've been so demoralized sexually that I don't know how to relax and enjoy it anymore.

(I've also asked him to help me pick out lingerie he would like on me, flirting/light dirty talk and such and typically get a grimace).

Ugh.  Typing it out has made me realize how hurt I am after all of this.  I wish I knew how to work through it so that sex can be fun again.[/quote]

I'm sorry to say but the only way I got over the hurt was feeling attractive to other men. Helped me realize it truly is my H, not me.  It's ironic, because he's really let himself go, but I'm in better shape than when we met (although I have a few more pounds), yet I'm the one who initiates 100% of the time.[/quote]
