Battles of the sexes?

It does wear on you to not feel like an object of desire. It's probably more that spouses take us for granted just as we do them. I Wish I could have my youth back, knowing what I know now. Husbands, if you want your wives to want more sex, just make her feel beautiful and desired. I was actually fantasizing about some aquaintance I met that heavily complimented me. This guy was no one I would go for, so I guess it's me just wanting to be the object of desire. So I agree with you

If husband came back, I don't feel any sexual attraction for him at all. Basically I lost all respect for him as a man. He is someone that abandoned me.
What i feel like saying, " by walking out on us and expecting my parents to support us you have failed as a husband, father, and human being. I am ashamed for you"

How would i regain attraction and respect for him if we did reconcile?

I had asked him back in October when he told me he "could not " reconcile if he was still attracted to me ( I know pathetic pursuing) He told me that he suspected he would always be attracted to me because he would not have married me if he wasn't. we had a lot of probems with our sex life...both of us. I don't even think it was just one feeling completely rejected. We both did. It literally became a physical challenge.
