Prior to kicking it into high gear for detaching, I would actively show H affection and would generally get it returned (a hug, a kiss, holding hands, etc). H would also initiate this at times but has been doing this less and is more distant and sometimes angry since he promised to have no more contact with ex wife (I believe he resents me because he believes I am the one stopping him from pursuing her even though I have shown him the door and knows I would not stop him from leaving). He still initiates a kiss goodbye when he leaves for work and usually a hand squeeze upon going to bed. There is no physical intimacy whatsoever.
I find myself withering on the vine over here. I am craving affection and really, really miss our physical intimacy. I just don't know what to do about this or how to take care of my needs. Is this a time where I just throw my need for love and my need for physical intimacy out the window?? Can anyone provide some coping techniques?
Thanks
