Partner problems…

Oh babe that sounds awful. No, I haven't had this issue personally, but it sounds like he's pulling away, although I couldn't possibly say for what reason. I know you've said you've tried before, so I'm sorry if this is useless advice, but could you frame it as a 'you' thing? Like tell him how lonely you feel and that you need intimacy? And, I mean, tell him it might be a deal breaker for you if that's the situation.

Mostly, though, I'm so sorry. You need support now and it's crap that he's not giving it to you.

I've had this and I've been with my partner 10 years. Part of him won't come near me for anything sexually as he's like there is a baby in there 😂 I called him out on the whole kissing and cuddling and he said he was waiting for me to initiate and it made me think oh actually I've not seeked it out either. Have a chat with him, he may be thinking you're not comfortable or wanting that right now:)

This seems to be the same as what we have been through, especially with timings…but I did the same, kept asking if everything was okay etc, even asked if he wanted to leave and find someone else.

But something changed last week (I’m 37 weeks tomorrow) and our sex life picked back up. And since we got our induction date yesterday he’s been a lot more attentive and cuddly. I honestly think it has something to do with us finally ordering the cot (last thing that we needed to do) so maybe your partner is just the same and stressing over what needs to be done?

I really hope you guys get through it ❤️

unfortunately he’s well aware that I’m still very much in need of some ‘attention’ but he won’t admit there’s a problem like ‘a baby in there’, as I’ve asked him this outright and he won’t talk about it? I’ve asked several times if somethings changed or if he’s not attracted to me anymore and he just doesn’t seem to want to give me an answer. I try to initiate all the time and I get a nervous kind of laugh in response which makes me feel stupid x

I think he may just feel uncomfortable because he knows you’re growing a human. My partner was so used to being on his own it took him till I was 6 months to decide he actually wanted to be with me. In that time he went 3 hours away on a guys trip for the weekend and I had to ask if he got with someone else because in my head I thought who knows he was technically still single and he said no it didn’t appeal to him. We had our own slow down of intimacy but it picked back up. I think if he’s not hiding his phone around you or things like that he’s not seeing someone else. My partner will scroll insta or play games with his mates while I’m sat in the bed doing my own thing but I have told him that once our daughters here he can’t do that multiple times a week the way he does and he’s agreed to it. Maybe the way to address everything you want is to go out and have a conversation in public. He might listen a bit more then? Probably not the best advice but I hope this helps.Here if you need

oh don’t get me started on the phone… it goes EVERYWHERE with him 👀 I’m going to try and talk to him today about things but I’m really doubtful I’ll get anywhere x

Oh my 😬 my partners the same but when he takes it to the bathroom or something I know I’m gonna get multiple reels sent from insta 😂 how did it go speaking to him?

The phone situation hasn’t changed, it still goes everywhere with him🫠 the intimacy is still hit and miss, but I’ve gotten to the point where I can’t stress myself over the whole situation so I’m trying to ignore it all currently - he’s really supportive in some ways, and useless in others😂

Ah that’s men though 😂 I wouldn’t stress too much but if it gets to a point where it’s really bad your best bet might be to leave

I left him last week… I couldn’t deal with it all anymore. I have given him enough chances and he f*cked every single one of them up x

Omg I’m so sorry. If you need to talk you can always message me
