I feel like my husband doesn’t love me anymore like he once did

Before we had our son, my husband was very affectionate towards me. He always wanted to cuddle & would always kiss me without me having to ASK. I know intimacy isn’t the same when you have kids but i literally have to ASK my husband to hug me or kiss me. My son is 2 years old. When we argue he’s so cold and will ignore me for days at a time. When I tell him that I want to be hugged or cuddled he always rolls his eyes and it feels like I’m forcing him to do it. I don’t even feel like he’s doing it cause he wants to. I’m crying so bad right now because I was literally trying to just TOUCH him because I’ve missed him (he’s been working nights so he’s been sleeping all day until he has to leave) and he tells me he didn’t want me touching him because it was “too hot” even though we had the AC on!!! Idk if I’m just overthinking but I just really miss how he used to be. I feel like I’m literally always looking for him to get attention and I’m getting so fucking depressed because he shows so much love and affection to our son (as he should) but I feel like he needs to do the same to his wife…😞

Maybe try speaking to him about how you feel and ask him how he feels. It might be something minor or something neither of you have thought about disgusting... I currently can't comment much as it's the reverse me and my partner 😅 you can probably count between both hands how many times iv left him kiss or hug me in the last 10 weeks after baby. I dont even find him that attractive anymore. But communication is hugely important, and without nothing, can be resolved as nobody is a mind reader annoyingly. I wish you luck. Tty set some time aside for just you two, which i know is hard but extremely important xx

Girl, I feel you. My baby is 6 months old: me & my fiance can't sleep in the same bed becus our daughter WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT sleep in her play pen or crib so either me or him sleep with her in the bed and the other takes the couch, his mom passed about 7 months ago & my aunt passed last month & he isn't as affectionate towards me becus of her passing but he gives our baby affection, me & SS11 don't have the best relationship & i caught him talking to other women becus of it, he trades so he's in the room and its just me & the baby chilling in our room or the living room most of the day, we dont really go out on dates by ourselves becus nobody is really around to help watch the kids. And he isn't really the type to SAY "i love you" in the forst place so often times i feel like we're just roommates that ya knowww.....👉🏽👌🏽....every so often. Relationships, whether romantic or platonic, take work. I would try talking to him and expressing how you feel but dnt get mad at his responses.

He could be going through something mentally. Men for some reason shut down when things happen. Try seeing if he will talk about that.
