My husband and I have a great relationship other than he has no desire to make love to me anymore. When he does, it feels as though it is a chore for him and only doing it because I want to. It does not seem like an act of love at all. We had such an active and wonderful sex life a the beginning of our marriage, but slowly dwindled over the first few months. We've only been married two years. He does act like he loves me....hugs, holds hands, calls me a million times a day at work. I don't believe he ever cheated because I know where he is all the time. He wants to do everything together. I love him so much and miss that intimacy in our marriage. When I try to tell him, he completely ignores me, won't discuss it at all. I am at my wits end and don't know what to do. I feel unattractive and feel like something is wrong with me, but I know that's not true. Any advice?

No infedelity on either side?
You did not mention your ages... could be an exaggeration of a normal dwindle men experience...could be depression...could be guilt, unacknowledged childhood issues or a true medical problem.
You need to dig deeper, has he seen a doctor?

Hi,
Sorry we didn't see your thread b4. You say you don't believe there is no A still you are posting in an infidelity forum. So your gut must be telling you something else. As mentioned b4 we need more info about you two guys
How old are you two?
How is work?
Do you have kids?
Do you have problems with any other family memebers?
How much was a wonderful an active sex life and how little is it now?
Does he have any health problems?
Is he taking any medication, drugs, alcohol, etc?
There doesn't need to be an A. There many other posibilities but if SF is and important EN to you and/or H and it is not being satisfied then you both are exposed to having an A and we don't that to happen. Whatever it is that is happening don't think of it as just a face, something that will go away with time. Go see a doctor, talk, go on a mini break, do all you can now, I learn the hard way about waiting for time to solve my sexual issues. Best of luck to you two.
