Being romantic
I told my partner a few weeks ago I would like it if he was to be more romantic with me. I told him that it doesn’t need to cost things, just simple basic romantic things to do, say etc. Yesterday I told him that he hasn’t done/been at all romantic since I said anything and his response was well how can I be when we have our son. To me, that baffled me! He seems more interested in just wanting sex than anything else. Am I in the wrong for being upset by this? I’m currently 10 weeks PP and feeling so crap about myself too, hence me wanting to feel more ‘loved’.

I have the same battle with my husband, only we are 5 months pp and had sex 3 times. I keep asking about sex but there is nothing. Not to say about stupid little things like holding hands, kissing or cheeky ass slap for me to feel wanted. I am hoping it is just a phase for us x

Youre not wrong, you are going through so many changes physically and mentally, you deserve all the love and respect, and im sorry a simple you look beautiful today, or here ive made you breakfast is absolutely enough. Yes men are stupid there whole “romantic” thing revolves around sex. I have honestly myself asked my husband 1 million times to be more involved in our marriage and be more romantic. I know this is easier said than done, maybe have date nights in? Give him that recommendation? Maybe he thinks because you have baby it will be harder. Trust me it gets harder when they are older.
