I think you're exactly right about what my wife is saying through her sarcasm. I've thought that before, but it's nice to hear someone else say it. I do think that my wife's self image is damaged right now. She see's herself as fat (though she's not), unattractive (though she's gorgeous), a bad mother since she has to work and can't stay home with the girls (though she's a wonderful mother), and thanks to me, a bad wife. But she's actually a great wife. I'm upset over this whole intimacy issue, but otherwise we get along wonderfully. I've been trying to find ways to communicate to her how wonderful she is in hopes of helping her feel better about herself, but it sounds like I should probably try harder. Thanks again!
