My husband and I have been married for 12 years.....?

So here is my question. I am feeling like I am just not wanted physically. It may all just be in my head. My husband has problems in the bed room area sometimes, he is a diabetic and that comes along with it. Well he hasn't touched me even for just cuddling. How am I suppose to feel? I am emotionally drained thinking about this stuff. The other night we went to a wedding and had a great time at the after reception and I went to the bathroom and then out for some air. My husband came looking for me and made the remark, he just wanted to make sure dan wasn't out here with me(a guy who was hitting on me all night) so I know he cares but I don't know what to do, I need to feel loved and wanted sometimes. My looks and figure have not changed.

Update:

Susan, I do not plan to leave or to be unfaithful to my husband. That was very plain I thought. I am asking for advice, not saying I want sex outside the marriage!

    I feel that you should talk to him and let him no how you feel. You should rekindle the flame!!

    Hai dear ,

    As per the people around you, dont leave this man anyway. Plan a talk with him. He may have some problem, which he is afraid to talk. If he is having some problem, will you leave. is that what you people do? Talk to him. he may not respond fast but tell him. If you simply go behind the feelings, think where you will end up. You may get sex but you will surely loose your peace. Have a prayer life.

    Worrying about your marriage changes nothing, but praying about it can change everything. If treatment needed, tell him and give him the assurance that you will be with his side always. Its easy to break but difficult to build and to get a faithful partner.

    He is probably impotent or pretty close to it because of his diabetes. It likely has nothing to do with you. Don't take this personally.

    As far as how you should handle it...well, that's a very sensitive subject and I'm not sure how he would deal with it if you brought it up. You know him better than I do. Just tread lightly.

    Have you told him this? Communication is the key to any relationship. Especially a marriage. Talk to him, share your heart, and let him know how you feel. It will be the best thing you could ever do :)

    He may be experiencing emotional performance anxiety because he isn't as able to do what he really wants to do. Viagra might help restore his ability, confidence and bring your sex life back. If it works, he'll feel better, be happier and make him want to show his love for you. Enjoy!
