Would you initiate sex even if you don’t feel like it… ever

So here’s the thing. Like mayyybe I “get horny” once a month. My guess is longer but that’s the longest I’ve gone and then might’ve felt like wanting to truly initiate. Ofc my husband and I don’t go very long without him getting horny lol. Once things get started, esp toys for my clit, then I’m into it and orgasm etc and it’s great. But I don’t feel turned on before the fact. And there’s times when it’s a quickie and I don’t feel aroused at all. I get that my body works different and needs a lot of warming up (except he just skips that and teases me with my vibrator lol) but idk. This being said, should I try to initiate more even if I’m not feeling it? He’s always wishing I would but I feel fake and I feel like he can tell.

If he wants you to initiate more, tell him he has to take the time to actually get you turned on and then maybe you'd get that drive back to actually want to initiate.

My partner has left me.

I am heartbroken. My partner or 8 years has left me and I am currently on maternity leave with no income; with a 7 month old and a 2 year old.

My house is mortgaged, and I can’t afford the bills even when I do return to work. My heart is breaking for my kids.

Has anyone been through this? Do you have any advice?

Friends

Hi everyone I am looking for friends as I don’t really have anyone to talk to during the day except the kiddos. Most of the time I don’t even talk an adult all week besides my husband. I text back pretty fast, I’m a therapist is training so I’m always up to hear you vent, and I crochet so if we become really good friends I could make you something. Feel free to message if you’re interested 🫶

I gotta let it out

I can't do this anymore. I'm so exhausted, I feel like I've wasted my life. I feel like I'm failing my daughter and I want to change things. As I'm getting older, I'm realizing how behind I am. It's a terrible feeling. I don't really have any friends, haven't been in a relationship in forever and I feel guilty that my daughter is an only child. I'm just so emotional and disappointed in myself and where I am.

Who here is employed and still dealing with extreme fatigue and sickness? How are we handling work?

I had to leave early *again* because I felt so crappy and it makes me feel so guilty. I’ve only worked 2 full 8 hr shifts in the last 2 weeks. Every other day I’ve had to leave early.
I’m a department of one. It’s literally just me providing support to a team of production workers in a manufacturing environment. When I’m not there, no one else is doing my job and things do get held up. I’m so concerned that my job is going to be in jeopardy because of how much time I’ve needed lately. I have FMLA so I know I’m “protected”, but I’m afraid I’m ruining my reputation and limiting my future in this industry that I’ve spent the last decade developing 🥲
