Kinda embarrassing writing this lol but here’s goes nothing

How can I be more sexy for my man? We got into an argument kinda the other day and I asked a separate question and he brought up me not knowing how to be sexy. I feel the complete opposite of that bc when I would try to initiate sex or foreplay he is kinda turned off when I do it (idk, maybe that’s just me but the way he moves my hand when I try)

Just throw out some stuff that can spice up a relationship because I honestly cannot continue in a relationship where when I try to initiate sex “he’s not comfortable” his words. Which is weird. I mean since the conversation I am kinda turned off in wanting to have sex and I’m not scared but embarrassed to even try anything, and then he doesn’t like it or I look stupid. I guess you can say my confidence went down a lil but whatever.

**there was so much more to the conversation but if I keep going it’s gonna be so long**

He probably is not attracted to you. Any man who doesn't love you the way you are doesn't deserve you. No matter how hard you try. He's meant to teach you what he wants not leave you in the dark

Sorry but he sounds like a huge part of the problem. How can you feel confident enough to initiate or act sexy when he shuts you down when you do? If my man did that to me I would feel the same way. He's a confidence killer. He should be buidling you up. Have you called him out on this?

Maybe he is just more into porn or watches too much to not appreciate what is in front of him?

I wanted to add too that when he wants to have sex, we do but when I try I get pushed off. It’s been 2 months since we had sex. He also did tell me before that he has a porn problem

He doesn't like you. Move on. I'm sure another guy will find you sexy. Men are just losers.

Whether a lap dance from you would turn him on is irrelevant to the problem here lol. Of course that would turn most men on. But if hes actually attracted to you, so would the mere act of you touching and initiating things! You shouldn't have to do these extra things just for him to want you. That's the off thing here. My man wants me all the time and yes he loves when I bring out my sexy side, but he is all over it when I simply initiate things too! He's gaslighting you. There is something deeper going on here and you are not the issue. You are actually trying to be intimate with him and he's actively denying you! Have you ever thought about your needs and what he's not fulfilling for you? Ever thought about turning him down next time he tries to see how it makes him feel?

Long drive alone...

I have my first drive alone with baby and jack russell soon. I am travelling 3/4 hours to visit family. I have anxiety about not having anyone in the back with my 15 week old to keep an eye on her. I plan to stop off every hour to stretch our legs etc.
I also have a mirror so I can see her but it moves about which is annoying.

Does anyone have any tips on how to make it easier for me and feel less worried?

Thank you

Long rant here....

Right this is going to be a bit of a rant but no one else seems to get how I'm feeling. Has anyone else found that since they've become a mum and on mat leave that they've essentially ceased to exist from peoples lives?

What I mean is that whenever I pop into my work I'm greeted with "how are you and baby doing?" "How are you coping?" "Text me if you need anything" "I'm round the corner if you need anything" "We should meet up and go for a coffee / walk etc" and yet as soon as I leave I feel like I'm basically forgotten.

If I don't message people first or try and organize stuff then I'm finding I never actually see anyone and it's starting to piss me off that it all seems to be from me and no one else making the effort. I understand people may not want to bother me with the baby but I haven't even had anything like "I hope you're okay" or "Just checking in" or whatever.

I don't have a huge social circle, mainly just one close friend but she's busy with work and life so I can't always see her. She also doesn't drive do has to cycle to me and sometimes I get the feeling she just doesn't want to cycle to my village so won't even suggest meeting up despite the fact I am drive to her and we can get coffee or go to town. I've even got a couple of people who live literally round the corner from me and it's like they never think to just text or ask to meet but whenever I see them they say "We should meet up and hang out" and I'm like TEXT ME THEN.

I've got a couple of people who I work with who have had babies (one 8month, one 5month) and I've met up with them once and they did the whole "text us if you need anything" but since then I've tried to organize to see them again and only been met with a short reply about 5 days after I messaged. Again I understand people are busy and they have their own kids to deal with but it just feels so hard to actually socialize right now.

I've tried a couple of local baby groups and no one was really talking to each other there, mainly focusing on their babies so just felt really awkward.

Sorry this has been long but I wasn't really sure where else to rant to 😅

Contraception

Anyone had the copper ( non hormonal) coil? I had an app to have my tubes tired, but as I’m only 34 and only one child she said it’s unlikely the panel of Drs will approve it 🙄 mad I have to ask a panel of Drs what to do with my own body who won’t even meet me but anyways, if they do say no my only option is the coil, as I said I catagoricaly do not want any extra or forces hourmons in my system. Messes me up, but all iv herd is horror stories about it

GIRL MATH???

So I don’t have much time left before my registry discounts expires and have up to $900 worth of savings… but would have to spend 5K to get all those savings. Do I go CRAZY shopping stocking up (smaller items with any bigger expenses) for things I’ll for sure need the next 2 years… technically it’ll be 5k worth of stuff for just over 4k… my husband thinks my logic is nuts 🤷‍♀️
