I'm 100% with you Emotionally Dead. I'm a hopeless romantic. AND I get nothing of affection here. My name is passion for a reason. I'm passionate. Very very loving and I get no responses from my husband. Sex NEVER happens and if it happens twice a year, it's robotic. I need the real deal. I'm all or nothing in a relationship. I've asked my husband that question a few times and its still unanswered. I can also tell someone in 50 words how I love them. Blueinanna, I like your approaching idea. Will try that in a few days and let you know how it goes. I gotta let last nights episode blow over. Well he's let it blow over as always. Subject was pushed to the side. Omg!!!! I want to punch a wall or something. So frustrated and sad just discussing this. I do know in my heart what I need to do. Gotta find my courage to move on already
