Even if you just get a room in a local hotel for a couple of days.<BR/><BR/>Hope it gets better soon.

Because there is no drama, anger, fighting, etc. There's just respect and admiration on both parts and sometimes we need to let the other people explore and enjoy their success on their own, whether we know we're doing it or not.<BR/><BR/>You'll both be back.

Not just once, but frequently. At least two or three times a week. I know, I know, I know. (Maybe I think that's a lot and you're already having sex every day except Sunday.) But sometimes a little physical connection goes a long way towards more emotional connection. It keeps the husband happy, it releases some of the tension I feel, and then he feels obligated to cuddle. Which makes me feel better.<BR/><BR/>I had a conversation once with a couple of girlfriends and we kind of came up with the the blah...sometimes you don't want to do it, but you have to take one for the team and most of the time you realize pretty early on that you enjoy sex, too! theory. <BR/><BR/>So sometimes, even if I'm not "really" in the mood, I'll start putting the moves on him. He appreciates that he's not always the aggressive one and usually after the first deep kiss or two, I AM in the mood.NGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04056381269070465424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37540506.post-65656747010780385962009-01-05T17:51:00.000-05:002009-01-05T17:51:00.000-05:00in my short time of being married it;s either your...in my short time of being married it;s either your on or your off and hopefully the off times are way less that the on. do something fun together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37540506.post-33931051683016334582009-01-05T16:52:00.000-05:002009-01-05T16:52:00.000-05:00I don't have any suggestions other than sitting do...I don't have any suggestions other than sitting down and talking to him. <BR/><BR/>I know. . .elementary, my dear Watson. :)<BR/><BR/>And, I can assure you, there are other couples that either are going through this very thing (ahem) or have gone through it in the past (coughs again because her hubby reads your blog!)Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08729503147294461398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37540506.post-38040512587195163492009-01-05T16:12:00.000-05:002009-01-05T16:12:00.000-05:00If you think of any ideas, let me know.
