I'm being an idiot for wanting a healthy relationship. I'm probably setting myself up to fail.
I'm separated 8 months. It's going well. We're getting along far better than we ever did.
I'm just full of butterflies about meeting someone; whether I'll be liked or appreciated. My marriage was sexless (give or take enough to produce 3 kids)
Should I think about sex therapy for myself? Would it help me to rationalise the intimate aspects of a relationship? I feel I've really missed out and that I've a lot of catching up to do.
Trouble is I'm very unattractive at the minute (v overweight) and whilst it's coming off slowly, I feel worried that life is passing me by. I'm working really hard on building my self esteem, been getting loads of compliments lately from colleagues, friends and family which I'm so grateful for.
