LFL, I can SO relate to your sitch (as hairdog says, many of us can). We can tell ourselves we're imagining it or it will get better or something, but when he comes out and says it-- oooo that hurts!
I do wonder if in saying it out loud, he is trying to get a rise out of you? It just seems so gratuitously cruel and provocative. It reeks of resentment.
And Balto, your points about the male pov are well taken, EXCEPT if you take into account Mr LFL's lack of interest in sex during the separation. I agree that feeling undesired by LFL is a turnoff for him, but what about the times that she did show desire? That didn't seem to lead to anything either.
