when beyond that there is not intimacy? and very little affection.
To help understand your situation, intimacy and affection, have these always been a great "need" of yours within your relationship? And has the apparent lack of always been a concern to you? Or have you begun "feeling" this way since the talk of separation and the affair you assumed your wife to be carrying on?
I think it’s fishy to debate another man/couples procreation, yet, I would like to ask regarding this:
Quote:
I went downstairs W came down shortly after, W still very upset. I said "I am not saying that I don't want to start a family with you but as the book outlined there are steps that you need to take to prepare yourself for a pregnancy" I said this to W because she is a vegetarian and eats absolutely no form of meat. The book has information on how to supplement the body for the lack of vitamins ect...I then said "I think it would be best and I would feel more comfortable if we planned for sometime after the fall" W said "Fine we just won't do anything then" I left it at that.
Do you always beat around the bush about what you want and the way you feel?
Vegetarianism as an excuse not to get pregnant? give me a break. Have you ever considered you may find intimacy with your woman by sharing your concerns and desires with her honestly?
Intimacy and affection has always been a staple of our R. I would go as far to say maybe we were too intimate and sex became almost a routine and had lost it's emotional baring. Complete 180 from what it is now. I can only imagine that W may feel as if that is all I ever thought she was good for (thinking back she may have said this a time or two). This maybe why she is so withdrawn when it comes to being intimate.
There are two reasons why I think now is not a great time to conceive a child with my W. 1. The current state of our R/M and 2. Her health. I am not saying Vegetarianism as an excuse not to become pregnant but is a contributor to her overall health. Too much soy, not enough vitamins, calcium, zinc and protein, we have an entire book on it.
