I Am a Curious Person

How do you explain to your spouse that their coldness and unaffectionate nature has caused you to now view them as a platonic partner? I am hoping for some help because all I can come up with is can we just be friends hahaha I don't think that will work.

Tell him he needs to step it up or he will loose you !

I have many times... he will be good for a month or so. Forcing himself to be more affectionate which feels awkward because he has to force it. The passion is dead and he only has sex with me when he is drunk. Slowly he sinks back into his old habits of rude comments and minimal affection.

Be-love.....so sorry to hear that. We all need affection and to feel wanted and desired. Things that can not be forced.

You are not alone my dear.
