Was I wrong to not not respond?

So I have been out for the evening. I get in and have a very limited conversation with dh. Didn't even ask if I had a nice time. Once in bed he tries to initiate sex.
I ended up not responding. Probably party as tired, 35 weeks pregnant but also because I just didn't feel we had the right level of intimacy at the time.
Does this make any sense?

Yes it does. You're heavily pregnant fgs! I wouldn't let him near me at 35 weeks. Sounds like you just need to tell him what you need - a chat and a cuddle, and then do what you feel like. Many men see sex as intimacy - they don't realise you might want to have a conversation first Grin

My XH used to do this and wondered why I never seemed in the mood for sex. He used to just stick his hands straight between my legs and I felt I wanted the intimacy first like you say. Obviously this wasn't this only issue of course.

You should definitely say something, he genuinely may not realise he is doing anything wrong.

You are never wrong not to respond if you don't feel like it. I am 35 weeks pregnant too & sex is the last thing I feel like.
