We've just returned from our family holiday. It was wonderful. I even felt some sexual desire for DH, which has been rare since DS (5) was born.
I've just been reading a thread in AIBU about women infantilising men (I don't), and some comments there prompted me to start this one.
Life is a juggling act for us at the moment. I have 3 p/t jobs, he works f/t in a job that's physically tiring. He pulls his weight on all household jobs, so no complaints there.
However he is always extra tired because he stays up late playing games on the Xbox or PS3. I go out to work 3 evenings a week so he can do it then with pleasure, but once he is into a game, it takes over. I have asked time and again that he turn it off sometimes and comes to bed early so we can have a chat, and maybe even sex, but nothing ever changes. When I bring up the sex thing he says he's too tired. Last year I nearly ended up having an affair because someone attractive paid me some attention. I put the brakes on, and I told DH all about it.
Things have improved since then, but not in the bedroom. The only time we've had sex is when I bought some sexy underwear from Ann Summers on our anniversary. This was last Autumn. I don't think we've had sex all year.
I can't finish this post as DS has just walked in. Any advice welcome!
