The withdrawal of romance/affection leads directly to a shut-down of sex. |
You all have really good points...the weight,,nagging kids first, guys do need a little romance but I didn't see anyone enter age and stres into the discussion. My husband, if he wanted it badly enough before his little "break" would/could do it whenever, but when he was stressed and knew I was busy, tired, overworked, would start taking care of business on his own during the day to help relieve stress. Now, granted I was told that as a lead up to his mental episode you can become hypersexual but that would make me think several times a day.
After sexting him once about how long it's been, miss him, etc... trying to turn him on, he admitted that the noise in the house, the homework, sports travel for child, mind wouldn't stop working thanks to work, it just got easier. Food for thought.
