Why won’t my husband touch me anymore?
i don’t even know where to start. it’s been over 5 months since we’ve been intimate and honestly it’s killing me inside. like at first i thought he was just stressed with work—he’s been putting in long hours at the office—but now it’s not just sex. he doesn’t hug me. doesn’t reach for my hand. barely looks at me when i’m talking. and when i try to bring it up he shuts down immediately. says i’m imagining things. so i started wondering… is it me? have i gained too much weight? am i not interesting anymore? i’ve tried wearing stuff he used to like or leaving little notes but nothing changes. i even brought up couples therapy and he just laughed and said we don’t need that. we’re both virgos if that means anything i don’t know. maybe it’s something at work. or maybe he’s hiding something. i just feel so alone in this marriage. like i’m sleeping next to a stranger. i miss feeling wanted. i miss feeling like his wife. why would someone just stop touching you like that for no reason?
