With my ex, we did talk for hours. Other problems when I wanted to have conversations about different things, my ex would be so busy on his phone online and it made me really upset to the point I had tears in my eyes. He always says I am listening yet still texting or whatever we had many talks about it it was like I gave up arguing felt like I was arguing with a child.

Another issue that was lacking was sex we didn't have an opportunity to do it daily like I wanted plus my ex and I didn't live together made it very difficult for us to have sex. When we did have sex, it was in public places which we both liked to do or at a porn shop with a room where we had to rent a movie. I missed the closeness felt a lot of times that I was distant from my ex and his distant from me the constant *****ing, arguing, the boring long *** talks that didn't go anywhere or change was made temp, etc just made me feel distant from him like he just doesn't listen or half listens! There was one time my ex and I were hanging out we just didn't talk for the entire day not sure why then a few times later on we were silent driving to other places again not sure why.

Anyway, this new friend was married for 16-17 yrs.
