I'm posting this as I want some advice and to see whether anyone else is going through the same. I'm 28 have one dd and a husband who i have been with since 15, married 8 years. He's the love of my life and the first for everything. We are best friends as well as husband and wife. Obviously we are in the throws of life , house, child, busy jobs etc so that is having its toll as is with everyone I assume. We used to have sex frequently 2-3 times a week if not more but the past year its dwindled to barely once a month. I feel part of it is my husbands job, its very demanding long hours and shift work, also working away from home occasionally. He's exhausted and he can see some awful things in his job so I know this affects him and I appreciate that. I feel I support him the best I can but I get no affection or any show of love like i used to. I know he's a solid man and he is there in every other way I'm just really upset over not having any physical connection anymore as I feel its important. I feel distant and resentful as I feel too young to be stuck in this cycle already and I don't want the rest of my marriage to be like this, we want more children and I fear with that will surely just bring extra cause for him to avoid it. I have confronted him numerous times and he still says he desires me and wants to but just says he's tired or we don't get to see eachother much due to his work. I'm kind of at a loss as of what to do, any advice would be appreciated.
