Q: Unhappily Married??

Hello everyone!! How are you all?? My name is teresa and my husband and I were just married in september of this year. My feelings for him are already starting to fade. The truth is I sarted to feel this way even before we were married but I just told myself that it was only my hormones (i just had a baby 3 months ago) and that this crazy feeling would go away. Well, it hasn't!!! I love him, well atleast I think I still do, i'm just not happy. He gets on my nerves all the time and I just don't find him as attractive as I used to. When he touches me or tries to kiss me I just get annoyed with him and don't want him to touch me. We do have our good days wehn I feel so lucky to have him and I can't get enough of him.. But that's not very often. I never want to have sex with him...And we used to do it atleast 3 times a day. He is such a great guy, and he doesn't deserve the way i'v been blowing him off. My heart doesn't melt when he touches me like it used to...Everything has changed and I don't know why!! I feel like I am going carzy with this!!! I promised myslef that I would never put my son through what I went through as a child. My mom and dad divorced and it was hell for me. I don't want to leave him...I just want to be happy with him again. What do I do?? Please someone help me....Have any of you been here before??

Well, I can't say that i've been here before teresa. I'm still trying to get someone to marry me, haha! (maybe marriage is just not meant to be for me).

It sounds like you have a wonderful guy, and those come few and far between. I would say try everything in your power before you take a big leap. Get someone to watch your child/kids 1 night out of the week (or atleast 2 times a month) and you and your husband have some time to yourselves. Go to a movie, have a picnic at the park or just stay at home and give each other backrubs with fragrant oils. Maybe enjoy "love-making" outside of your home - just anything that can give you back that spark!

If that doesn't work, then you may want to try marriage counseling. I hope everything works out for you, though. Good luck! :-)

Thank You
Thanks so much. I really want to try...I don't want to leave my husband because of my son and because I can remember the amazing feelings I used to have for him... I really want that back. I'v decided that the only thing I can really do is pray. If anyone can fix our marriage it's .God.
Thanks again for the advice!! Oh...And yes you will find a wonderful man to marry...There is someone for everyone!!! Good luck!!!

Teresa,

have you considered that you may be suffering from post-partum depression? Is it possible?

Good luck!

Hey teresa,

I went through similar thing after having elisa, almost like all the feelings fade for awhile try about 6 months...................


You have to make time for yourselfs as well as alone time, I go out 1-2 a month with friends or with hubby, I find it gives me a break from baby as well as hubby. As for sex try new things, dont be afraid to voice your opinion on it I know after having a kid I felt so gross and I gained alot of weight but its almost like hubby knew how I felt and was very supportive.

Honestly try a few things first, go out for the whole day and just relax and then go home to a glass of wine or do something you did with hubby when you first met him try and remeber what made you like him orginally. Good men are hard to find and honestly I really hope thing will work out, its hard for me to go into details about everything but send me a pm or email and maybe we can chat about it, I really do understand!!!!


take care
jess
