Hi, I'm new here. H and I are working through our problems still. He was very hd when I first knew him. I think H has been retreating to punish me for a long time. We quit being affectionate probably because we weren't taking time out together. I had a hard time keeping the balance of our relationship with taking care of the kids and I can see now that I took a lot for granted. One reason he started sleeping on the couch was to avoid pregnancy, I think. Now he's made an appointment to get a vas consult without talking to me about it. I don't believe in those operations personally. I would even consider using some other form of BC, but since we haven't discussed it much I feel he will just do it regardless of what I think. Then, I don't know, he thinks he can do that then just jump back into our bed for sex? I don't think so. We'll see what happens. I have missed having sex a lot and H should know that I'm not able to get pregnant right now anyway. So I feel he is sleeping on the couch as punishment.
