| Hey everyone...I am looking for some advice and encouragement. In early July, my wife told me that she was not attracted to me. She agreed to go to marriage counseling with me. After our first few sessions, the therapist suggested that my wife see an individual counselor to work on some of her issues. This was the first time she had ever gone to counseling before...and she is not big on talking about her feelings. We agreed to stop marriage counseling and both her and I are in individual counseling. She has told me that she is not sure that she ever was attracted to me...but she said she married me because she loved me and thought I would be a good husband and father. She is a stay at home mom and I work from home but travel 2-3 weeks each month. I knew early in our relationship that something was wrong with her attraction for me because she just never seemed really into having sex with me. She would and after some foreplay, she was into it, but she would never initiate sex. Over our five year marriage, it felt like she only gave me sex just to keep me from getting mad or asking question about what was wrong. And then in July, she said that she is not attracted to me. She and I both agree that everything else about our marriage is AWESOME except for her attraction to me. We are best friends. I have been sleeping in the guest room when I am at home, but we do interact a lot throughout the day and with our son (i.e. going out to dinner as a family, playing board games, shopping together). However, we have no physical interaction, she does not say I love you anymore to me, and she told me last night that she is feeling like she may not be able to become attracted to me again. Do y'all have any ideas that I could try to potentially get my wife to be attracted to me again (if she ever was attracted to me)? Any books with good action ideas? I love my wife so much...and I want our marriage to work. It hurts so bad to hear that she isn't attracted to me anymore...but I hope her feelings will change. Any advice on what I should do? Background info: We have been married for 5 years and met online 6 years ago. We have a three year old son together. I am 33 years old and my wife is about to turn 30 years old (in one week) | |||
