I am not physically attracted to my partner. I married him as I was coming out of a big heartbreak and immediately knew it was all wrong. I thought I could make it all work. Now I feel like I can't do this any longer. I had a baby and went into postpartum depression. After the depression,I can't stand to be around him.

I feel terrible .I so want to walk out of the marriage but can't seem to find the courage. I also feel like it is bad for my kid. So confused!

I do know, first hand, the physical attraction part ....

I am so in love with my partner because he is the most kind, gentle loving person and treats me like a princess. That's what draws and attracts me to him.

Unfortunately you probably only have one of two choices. Either you go for some kind of counselling and find ways to rekindle what you once had (or didn't have; but could ignite); or you walk....
Thanks for this!

Hi!!
how about some self therapy -> I want u to think something for 5 min everyday, in a quiet/natural/peaceful place preferably a garden or something close to nature about this :
Like everybody, you and your hubby are growing old with every passing day.One day your skin would wrinkle, his would too.The beauty and physicalll attraction would be surely gone and ur son wud be a handsome man. He would love u regardless of how u look physically coz ure his mom!Try seeing the nonphysical part in ur husband..You've probably had sex a million times uptil now since u have a second marriage while keeping the physical attraction thing on mind so how about the inner beauty aspect for a while?try experiencing thatby finding imperfections in ur body!Trust this u WILL find some just get a concave close look mirror for a start
