My self esteem is shot!

Question - (30 December 2008) 0 Answers - (Newest, )
A female United States age 51-59, *ashalynn writes:

I have been married 2 1/2 years. Honestly in the first couple years we would have sex twice a day. So spontaneous, new positions, new places and now nothing for the past month. The past six months I am lucky if it has been twice a month. I crave to be touched,it is how I feel loved. My husband is very controlling and things are always his way and my normal happy self is disappearing. He won't take me out, and just sits and watches tv when home-no interaction. He does give me love pinches throught the day when walks by and cooks when I am busy-but that is it. Even the cuddling is gone. We always slept naked and the past month I bundle up in sweats due to the fact I feel very unattractive anymore and it makes me feel like I am hiding. I am not ugly-not gorgeous but other men flirt with me. I am 5'6 and weigh 135. I used to weight 125 but due to my husband's insistence I was too thin for him, I put on ten pounds and now he refuses to touch me. Now my self esteem is gone, I feel extremely fat and unattractrive and find myself hiding behind sweats all day. What do I do? My hubbie keeps insisting he loves me, he is happy but that he is stressed out with the holidays and lack of work-he works construction and the weather in Utah has been horrible. I find myself thinking of affairs and going out just to satisfy my needs as a woman and don't like these thoughts. I married him because I wanted him and now I am not sure. This is my second marriage and I do not want to go through another divorce but my self esteem cannot handle this much longer.
