AIBU for being touched out

Two DC 6 and 3 (who I obviously love dearly), but after being on holiday for 11 days and them constantly touching, grabbing, pulling, tugging, sitting on me I am TOUCHED OUT!

I don’t want anybody to touch me!

DH at any given opportunity will also touch, grope etc and I’m starting to get very snappy whenever any of them touch me.

DTD EVERYDAY on holiday and DH huffed and puffed when I didn’t want to the day we got back!

WHY CAN’T I JUST BE LEFT ALONE WITH NOBODY NEEDING TO TOUCH ME!!!!!

Rant over thank you.

Yanbu. Everyday on holiday !! Jeez that’s a lot for parents of small children. Sulking/huffing/puffing to punish you for declining sex is totally unacceptable from your husband.

Is he pressuring you into having more sex than you want? Because every day whilst on holiday and presuming sharing a space with a 6 and 3 year old is a LOT and it doesn’t sound like you wanted it.

Its totally ok to say no to sex, including to your husband, for any reason at all and he needs to accept it without huffing or puffing about it!

I don’t think you should ever be having sex unless you want to have sex.
