Awkward around DH

[247]

This is weird but I would like some feedback please. A few years ago DH wanted to leave as he no longer loved me. He stayed but our relationship never got back on track. Infact it is non existant, there is NO physical contact whatsoever. I feel so sad and lonely. I always hoped we would get over this and continue a long life together. I do still love him (call me a fool) and I do not want to be a single mum and give access to the DC every other wkend. We talk as normal but never about personal stuff, usually just his work, he is very successful. I feel I was put out to graze a few years ago and he is just not coming back to me. It has reached a point now that I am just so and lonely, like all the time, and I am now even feeling embarrassed to sit close to him on the sofa.

Ive read your other thread, skyatnight, I was riveted, my god what people there are in this world. I count my blessings in comparison, my worries seem so petty and still you have time to advise others. I really feel for you and hope whatever happens, it makes you happy. Wish I could muster up some sound advise for you but I don't know what to say. I only hope you have a positive outcome at the end of the day and you have people around you who will support and care for you. Of course there is always this site too, I've found it helpful more than once or twice.

Thanks. Reading and posting on Mumsnet is a bit of free therapy for me. I don't see it as giving advice, just opinions, but it's good to get or give a different perspective on/to a situation. Sadly, there are many people in much worse situations than me (physical abuse for example). Misfortune is always relative, isn't it?
