I can so understand where you are coming from, unfortunately. I know what this feels like, and so do many other women on this board...but it can change.
You answered the majority of my questions but one...what about counseling? I am COMPLETELY convinced now that if I had not put my foot down about the need for counseling that we wouldn't be on the road towards recover now.
Oh, and I know what you are talking about with the television...why is it that when there is something you want but can't/don't have that's all you see on the tv? If I'm dieting, it's chocolate....now of course it's ads for sexual enhancement products. Even my LDH has noticed them LOL
One common mistake you are going to see that people have made is that they told their spouse what it was they wanted, what they weren't getting etc. But they set no boundaries...have you actually set concrete consequences for your H not taking action or doing what you ask of him to fulfill your needs? If you don't set boundaries (w/consequences) why should he do what you are asking? Right now he's able to do nothing, w/no reprocussions
Keep in mind though that whatever boundaries you set you need to be willing to go through with the consequences.
