I did this. It was kind of a relief. The rejection was too much. And now I just kind of suffer. frown

I do say it to him. And he never says much.

He just stopped using porn after a long time. I don't know how often he was using it. He said not often but that he did it a long time (over the course of his life).

So I wonder if he still masturbates. Which [censored] b/c I don't really want to rely on masturbation, KWIM? I just want sex with my partner. So sometimes I get bummed that he is masturbating instead of having sex with me.

I don't know how to figure out his drive b/c I feel like I'm not really seeing it truthfully.

But what did your wife do? Just start having sex with you again so you wouldn't leave? How does that work?
