Just wondering, but is your H aware that you're willing to work on improving your sex life together?
I'm not sure he really believes it. He's heard it before and is probably dubious. And I'm afraid with the state things are in now, if I make a move he'll 1) totally reject it and 2) see it as a pathetic, panic-induced attempt to "win him back."
Is this reasonable thinking, or is this a place to show vulnerability---it's terrifying to approach with fear of rejection---and demonstrate willingness? All these concepts are so new to me. I know I need to do a lot of reading (SSM is on the way, for example), and I'm so grateful for this forum to get input on my specific situation, so thank you very much for reading. I'm sorry your situation is similar to mine, and I appreciate you sharing.
Atlas, thank you so much for your words of encouragement. I am indeed trying all those things.
