    Wow. That's pretty heavy stuff. 

    I can understand the not wanting physical touch after having kids......to a degree. Especially if she breastfed them. That's a lot of touching. For years, I felt that my breast were no longer sexual, but part of being a mom, so I wasn't comfortable with them being touched. I sometimes still have issues with it, honestly, and my kiddo is 17. LOL However, not wanting to be touched at all is not normal, especially if you love your significant other. Touch is one of the most basic of human needs. Humans crave the touch of other humans, just to feel like they're a part of something.

    As far as her "getting off" by withholding physical affection, that's just cruel to do. No matter what you did in your past, if she loves you and wants to be with you, that is a form of abuse. (FYI, I believe the word abuse is kinda over-used, as is the word bullying, so I don't use those loosely.)

    I don't blame you for seeming like maybe who you use to be may get you what you want, since it did in the past. Since, this new, improved you hasn't helped you in the intimacy area. However, is it the person YOU are, or the person SHE is that you're having issues with, because it sounds like the latter.

     

    I am grateful to be the person I have become and love the person she is minus what we've become together. The only thing I can think of to force the situation to be addressed is to get my needs fulfilled by someone else. I'm wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation and how it played out for them. The only options I see is to get my needs met or wait. I think waiting may be worse because waiting has a plethora of variables. Wait until I mess seek out other females? Wait until the kids are grown just to call it quits? Wait until someone else replaces me? This is the challenge.

    Is there a reason your relationship is sexless that you're willing to share with us?

    She doesn't crave any physical touch after having children, multiple medical interventions have failed to produce any positive results. I have a dark past which is no secret which she witnessed and was by my side through it all. I was not always the man I am today and with all medical options explored, I'm beginning to think that guilt/shame for staying with me through dark years is manifesting as her "getting off" by withholding the physical part I need. We have always been polar opposites, but without intimacy, the man I used to be is starting to seem much more appealing than the good man I am. Since "I was always the problem" it feels like she's creating the chaos that no longer is created by me.
