Long story short, i need advice . We have been together for almost 7 years. We have a 14month old baby girl. I have been breastfeeding and cosleeping from birth. After like 10months pp my husband expressed his feelings that he doent feel wanted, appreciated, lack of intimacy brings his mood down, we dont have time together whatsoever. I explained that i dont feel any need for intimacy unfortunately, (which he understands because we both read about it, its the hormones the night wakes the tiredness) but i still love him and try to hug and kiss.
He recently moved to the other room to sleep because he couldn’t sleep next to me anymore since i turned him on when he accidentally touched me during night or smelled my hair.
Baby girls sleep is not the best, she wakes up when i leave the bed during night and from frequent night wakes i am always tired. I go to bed when baby goes to bed. So we really dont have any time together and i am afraid that we dont even know how to be alone together. Like i feel we dont have anything to talk about anymore besides the baby.
He is a very very patient and loyal man. Im not afraid that he will walk away because of lack of intimacy. But i do feel very very bad that i dont want that intimacy and that i dont need it like he does. And i am afraid it has affected our relationship in a bad way but i dont know what to do.
Asking for advice how to reconnect with him, how to start wanting him again?
