Returning from business trip.

[stupidpostiamsure]

Sorry to post about something so personal. (Sex topic warning). Just wondering if others would find it strange if your DH hadn't shown an interest in sex for close to a week after returning from a business trip he'd been on for three weeks? He's been tired, I get that, so I just accept he has fallen asleep early the last four nights. I'm not bothered about the sex but am now feeling a bit put out because he's decided to take himself to his sporting activity, which will mean he's not up for it another day at least. He has the energy for that but doesn't have an interest in reunion sex? AIBU to feel a bit rejected here?

Honestly after three weeks he's probably knackered and trying to get back into the swing of things. If he's falling asleep every night you can see for yourself he's not just doing it to avoid you - he's actually exhausted.

If you're not having the most sex anyway, it's perhaps not top of his list to half arse it when he's knackered? Perhaps waiting for a time when you're both relaxed?

I can understand why is bothering you a bit, but I think perhaps give it a bit more time (especially if there's a lot of time zone travel involved!) and try to initiate this week when you're both well rested?

@cruffinsmuffin That sounds like a reasonable summary. You're likely right.

Tbh op id be absolutely shattered after a 3 week business trip. Its knackering enough having to be "on form" for a 2 hour meeting, but 3 weeks? I'd be a bit peed off if DP started moaning that I wasn't up for sex less than a week after getting back (3 weeks of being needed to be on form constantly and then DP needing attention too? 😩), but tbf I don't get the "reunion sex" thing so appreciate that's just me!

My husband regularly works away for more than 3 weeks at a time. Just because you don’t think it happens doesn’t mean you’re right 💁🏻‍♀️

I haven't moaned and haven't asked. It was more the sudden running off to exercise, knowing that would make it impossible, that said something. Never mind. It'll happen when it happens.

You could either a) talk to him

or b) post about it on here and have loads of strangers accusing him of cheating.

Not sure of your ages but there does come a time when maintaining regular exercise takes precedence.
