runner, Things got way worse before they got better. I wanted my H to be more manly and confident; he wanted me to admire him and be more openly desiring of him. The sexual issues went hand in hand with other issues, resulting in our distancing more and more. For awhile our major focus was the house and kids. When the distance became overwhelming, I found myself reading divorce/relationship books and found this board.
What helped me get back on track was asserting very clearly and definitively what I wanted, and also taking the first steps to become a better wife to him. I had to learn to set boundaries and to give more.
