sex & relationship

What would you do in the case your Significant Other didn't want to have close contact with you (including sex, cuddling, kissing...) but is a great father/mother to your children. there is no arguing in your relationship. you know there is love. He/she tells you how much they love you everyday.

IMO physical intimacy is an important part of a relationship. It doesnt have to necessarily be sex but there has to be something

Quoting Misty Walls:" IMO physical intimacy is an important part of a relationship. It doesnt have to necessarily be sex but there has to be something"

 

Is there something keeping him from wanting or being intimate? Is it a phase?

I have a problem with intimacy and I have always been that way. I love my husband very much and have been getting better about it, especially since having our second kid. I have never likes cuddling, or being affectionate, it makes me super uncomfortable. And, my sex drive can be non-existent at times, to the point where I feel horrible that I don't want to have sex ever. I have heard breastfeeding can do that too.
I plan on seeking out hormone therapy to see if that is the problem, but I can't until I am done breastfeeding. I personally think intimacy is super important so that is why I would seek help. I read the 50 shades of grey books and that actually helped boost our sex life lol. Just thought I would tell you from the other perspective. Good luck  

In our relationship the intimacy and physical contact is very important. It doesn't have to be sex or kissing and hugging but We both need some kind of physical contact to feel affection. Hand holding, sitting close on the couch, touching my lower back when I walk through a door before him, or dancing. It all adds up make me feeling very secure and protected, and I don't think we could survive without the physical contact.
Would he have a reason to be feeling that way?

Well this isn't about my relationship so I wont know for sure. All I know is that my friend hasn't had any intimacy with her SO for almost 2 years. Its leading her having an emotional affair with someone else. I told her that she has to stop her affair and need to discuss it with her SO but she says he s a great man and father and don't want to loose him for those reasons

For 2 years is there something she's not telling you? Maybe he's gay or has a medical condition that's preventing him from being intimate? I think she's not telling you the whole story
