I have a 16-month old baby. My wife & I have had sex only 2 or 3 times in last 16 months?

We didn't do sex during pregnancy. I really don't know what's the problem, I am ready, but she never does anything on her own. She has lost her father one month back, but that's a month back thing. Before that also she never tried to do much, She doesn't even touch me, cuddle me. By nature she is a selfish woman but I never thought she'd do this to me after baby. Before the baby she used to do it because we wanted a baby. She is talking to me, behaving normal, I told her two or three times about it, but she never reacted. I don't know what to do. Now I don't want to do anything with her because I also have self respect. I am bored in this life. Please help. What can I do?

    If she's not a Christian, there's not much you can do. Christians like to have sex so they can have lots of children. Non-Christians don't. It's a religious thing. Sorry!

    Wow, if that was me, I would go crazy without having sex, first off... but, I would be mad. I had sex with my (ex now) an hour before I starting getting contractions. I don't know if that had anything to do with it though.

    We had sex about 4 weeks (after I healed) and never stopped. I am now 4 months pregnant and we have sex AT LEAST once a day!! I would die. I stay horny being pregnant and I stay horny everyday.. lol.

    I would threaten hear with divorce. Tell her you are not getting your needs pleased and you feel like she doesn't care or love you anymore.. I could see in the last past month after she lost her dad, but for almost 3 years.. 16 months and the time she was pregnant.. That is crazy!!

    It sounds as if you are very frustrated, but that you and your wife do not communicate. It is impossible to tell, why she has lost interest in a sexual relationship. There are many possibilities, and it could be medical. Her hormone balance could be off, she could be tired, anemic, or ill. And, a tough one for you: It could be that your love making is a turn off to her. While you may be making it, you may not have a technique that is satisfying to her. Most women will not tell you this, because they don't want to hurt you and not just a few of them "fake it." If this is the case, try not to be hurt. Get a book, learn about the sensual areas of a woman's body, and communicate with her. When there is open and frank communication during the sex act, both of you can enjoy the relationship more. You have not told us how long you have been married, or how she responded to you in the past. Also, how do you treat her? If you are insulting or demeaning toward her, she will not respond to your attemps at love. A woman needs to feel "sexy" and desirable to get into the love making role. Be considerate, compliment her, tell her what she means to you, how you value her, and find things about her that you find beautiful, whether it is her hair, her smile, her body--even if you find this difficult. It may surprise you: Most women want to feel valued, cared for, protected, and will respond very positively, to loving treatment. All things considered, you need professional help, someone who can help you sort out the problems and get back on the right track before we see you in divorce court. Start with a medical doctor. She needs to be physically evaluated for any of numerous problems that could be occuring. Good luck!

    First off, try not to be angry until you know why. It's possible that your wife, like alot of us woman with kids, are self conscience about our marked up bellies or weight gain. You need to tell your wife that you have to have a heart to heart with her. It's not fair to sexually ignore your spouse, especially without providing a reason. Tell her you are hurt, offended and that she is going to drive you right to someone else. Perhaps she should see her OBGYN, because some women become depressed after pregnancy and it can continue. Libido issues too. Good Luck.

    You need to sit her down and nicely explain this:

    - Sex in marriage is supposed to be enjoyable for BOTH people, clearly it was not fun for her when you did it or she would want to do it now

    - She needs to tell you/show you how to touch her to make it fun for her

    - If she won't discuss it, you have to decide if you are going to stay with her and just never have sex - or find a girlfriend

    Couples counseling. Whether she realizes it or not, she is depressed and numb even to her own feelings. And you are taking the brunt of it. Counseling will help you in all ways. If she isn't up for it, tell her that you are a man and if she doesn't want to share that part of life with you, you're going to move on. And do it.

    If she used to have sex just because she was trying to get pregnant, it must mean she doesn't want or like sex. all you can do now is accept it or leave her.

    Tell her you want sex and if she doesn't want to have sex with you, that you'll hire a hooker that will.

    Just understand her for what she's doing.

    There. Changed.
