I have been thinking about this more. It sounds like there's a chance that more than just physical intimacy is missing. I can get like that sometimes. I've pushed myself through the years to realize that if the emotional connection, the need to be treated like pampering me matters, if I'm not feeling important, physical connection is a way i feel connected. I've learned it's really a final resort.
Thing is, without working through it, and believe me it wasn't something I worked through in talk therapy, more heartache and pain lies ahead. It was more than sex that was craved, it was a satisfying relationship. My needs were unmet and unaddressed, and sadly being the type of person who usually would put myself last, I didn't really know what those were. That was discovered in therapy, after removing myself from a marriage that entailed domestic violence and a husband that felt that sex was something i was obligated to produce, after all my libido is high.
I'd say sort through everything. Don't want to come away from making choices that could leave you feeling used or misused.
