I can't get that physical attraction back for him...will these feelings ever return?

Question - (4 December 2007) 1 Answers - (Newest, 5 December 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

How can I get my love life back on track and how will I know that I really want to? This seems a daft question but my partner and I split up in February and after much discussion, decided to give our relationship another chance.

Since then though, as much as I've tried, I just haven't been able to feel like I once did - like I did way back before we split. We'd been together 4 years before splitting and now I just can't seem to be able to bring myself to be that close to him. He's really good and patient with me but I just can't feel that physical attraction anymore. Is this because of the time we spent apart and I just got on with my life? Will these feelings return or are we doomed again? Many thanks for any advice?

I personally don't support seperations like that,they always create a drift in most cases because you begin to question your love.Don't waste what you built all those 4yrs.Spend as much time as you can with him.Look at him as a good friend,if it helps at all and don't be quick to sleep with him again,it'll only confuse you more.Give it some more time with as little sex as possible,then see what you feel and make a decision.I believe you can awaken those feelings again.

All the best.
