So many men seem to measure of women's love for them with sex. Like you can't feel appreciated with penetration. But has it ever dawned on you, that I really may be tired from cleaning up your shit all day. The quickest way to kill a relationship slowly is to expect me to lay down on you on demand, after you treat me like I am nonexistent.
You treat me like your wife when others are present or when you want to have sex, but can't even smile in my direction when it is time to have a conversation or cuddle with me [and the kids] on the couch. And you said you wanted me all along, but you didn't want me. You wanted sex. If you wanted me, you would have made me feel wanted. Wanting someone's body or your own release is not the same as wanting me as a person. And I think you are trying to say your pride is hurt from that constant rejection, but my heart hurts from the emotional rejection, as well.
Here is what you don't realize, when I try to talk to you, you walk away or put on your headphones and say maybe tomorrow. You don't turn down the sex, but you turn down the connection. You roll over on the intimacy.
Existing in your marriage is not enough! You actually have to participate in it to be present! Physical connection without an emotional one, is not a marriage. So please stop claiming the benefits of being in one.
