I have slept alone for 3 months, and have decided to go the D route.<P>Right now I just want to sleep with anyone.<BR>Has anyone else felt that, or is it just<BR>my release of hormones? or what?<P>I am missing the physical contact, what do I do?<P>thl<P>

WIFTT,<P>Hey man,It is just me <P>I have been sleeping now by my self for 2.<BR>I do feel the same way......I do have to say that it is nice in some ways that I have the bed to my self but than do miss snuggling up to my H.<P>When you say sleep w/someone......are you meaning in the sexual way?........just the close contact of physical closeness...ie,cuddling/snuggling and so on?<P>Or it could be all of the above.Well,I guess it really doesn't matter,or at least for me it doesn't.I do miss all of it.(2m,gosh I hate to see what it will be like say in 3 or 4).......UGH!.....LOL<P>I will tell you that the most that I miss is the closeness that you feel in eachothers arms.The soft and tender kisses.....<sigh><BR>gosh,I miss that actually more than sex,just to sit and kiss.(I think back to our just begining dating days....we could "make-out" for hours.)Ha,......I do miss that!<P>O.k......thanks,Thl,for making me totaly depressed......(just kidding )It is nice to think about.<P>Gina<P>

BOTH WAYS!!!!!!!<P>I need a two week, traveling vacation with a female companion or I am going to go CRAZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!<P> <BR> [img]http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/confused.gif[/img] <P>All emotions rolled into one.<P>thl

Thl,<P>I do understand!<P>I could tell you what I do for the hormonal release......but I am affraid that I would be a little too embarassed and it takes a lot to do that.LOL ..........as to the emotional togetherness of the closeness,well,unfortunalty that will always be there! <P>I know that it is cliche` to say but what about a "Cold Shower"????....sorry,just had to say it.I know,I am not helping.......<P>I honestly do not know how you guys do it???<BR>I really don't.<P>If you feel that it is o.k. for you to find a commpaion to go a vacation w/then I say more power to ya!.....I for my self couldn't do it........(I could probably go out,just buds,friends kinda thing just to have fun.but far as the physical sence,I have never been able to do "that" just for the sake of it.)I supose that is a difference between female/male.....or maybe just me.<P>It actually scares me to death to think about being w/someone else (of that nature)I have been w/my H for my whole adult life.<BR>(19-34)......and for me it is more the aspects of my physical apearence.(I have lost weight,15p.I could stand to loose at least 5 or maybe 10 more.....)I think that I look alright,ya,I look pretty good w/close on.......but in a bathing suit or off...UGH,trust me it is not a pretty sight.<P>Oh well,I know that it will be awhile before I have to worry about that.<P>I do want and miss very much the friendship,commpaionship of going out dancing,playing volleyball,skating,swimming,and all that kind of thing.<P>"Conversation"........."Recreational Com."<BR>I am one happy camper!!!<P>I just hope that someday I will find someone that likes the same things!...<<<sigh>>>><P>A girl can dream. <P>Gina<P>

I smiled when I read your message because I can related completely. Right after I split up, I started thinking, "I wonder how many men I can sleep with this month". I never went through with it because to tell you the truth, I'd be too afraid of catching something. And after thinking things through, I realized that it wasn't so much sex that I was missing, it was companionship. Cuddling on the couch, walking hand in hand, or just having someone to laugh with.<BR>In all honesty, I don't know if what you're going through is normal, but it seems as if alot of us are in the same boat. I really wish I could tell you what to do, but unfortunately I have absolutely no idea.<BR>Best of luck to you. Take care.

On My Own,<P>Hey,at least I am not the only one!Yeah. <P>I also miss the cuddling,walking hand in hand.Even just lying together in eachothers arms talking,laughing and playing.I love wrestling,tickling,kissing.....O.k.now I am depressed again.......<<<<<<sigh>>>>>>><P>We need to get more on here......I would bet that it is a physical thing for the guys and an emotional thing for the girls.......<P>What do ya think????????<P>Gina<P>

Hey Thl,<P>Just wanted to check to see if you are feeling better????<P>Did you get your cold shower?????? O.k.I'm sorry had to ask! ......LOL<P>Hope your doing better!<P>Gina
