Love husband, but not attracted to him anymore

So, husband and I have been together for 6 years.. we just had a baby 4 months ago.. moved into a great house. I work a ton, he works Aton. We are both successful, good looking people. He’s smart, good looking, musically inclined, funny etc.. but I am starting to no longer feel attracted to him because of one thing. Lack.Of.Affection..I’m back to my old body post pregnancy , I make all the moves first, I’ve tried not making ANY moves to tease him, I don’t nag, I pay for at least half of everything, I try to flirt, dress up everyday etc.. he never makes a move on me, or shows me any sort of affection. In fact, he is quite mean sometimes in the way he talks to me.. I’ve called him out a few times so it’s not like this is a mystery.. but. It’s starting to get so bad this lack of affection thing, that on the rare occasion when we do do it, I’m no longer even turned on. I can’t get past all of the crazy stressful things we’ve been through, and like I said the fact that he can’t show any affection or desire towards me..I’m resentful of him. And he seems resentful of me. I don’t want to divorce him because truthfully before all this family stuff happened he was the absolute hands down, most amazing love of my life.. what do I do? Did anyone have this happen and it got better? What did you do?

Sounds like hes zoned out emotionally. Maybe its the new baby? Put him out your mind and get on with making yourself happy and see if he comes around. If not you need to speak to him. Something is making him withdraw from you.

I like that idea a lot. I feel like I’ve been doing that.. but maybe could try a little longer @Cutiepi23
@Brassm0nk3y exactly dont you do the chasing. If he really wants you,you will soon find out.
