Question - (26 June 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 26 June 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I've dated my hubby for a really long time and got married last year.he,s perfect. Does everything a husband should do. Provides for me, helps me out as best as he can with everything and anything, he genuinely loves me I know,

The problem is he is not physical with me...we can go days without any physical contact and he won't notice. he won't hug or kiss (just occassionally when I fuss about it or when he randomely remembers)

I'm right there and he just won't touch me. Just had a baby. My 9 months..ok maybe sex was 5-6 times. I thought he's being considerate or something.mbabys born n I had episiotomy and this is 7 weeks after( so ok he's been considerate again) but all these

Time of consideration I'm crying on the inside for some physical attention. Some cuddles,proper kisses not pecks, some I love u,s, some romance anything.

I'm so distraught. Told him 1 million times but nothing... Now every other man who gives me as much as a handshake, gives me goosebumps..

I can't live this way... Pls help.

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (26 June 2010):

Maybe he's not seeing you as a woman, but as the mother of his child instead. Men can get that way sometimes. For some, the idea of having sex with the woman who was pregnant and gave birth to a baby can have a bit of an effect. I think the best way around this is to just come out and say that you need more physical attention from him. Tell him you need hugs and kisses and everything else. That might kick him into gear.
