I thought she just didn’t want to do sex stuff or cuddle or show affection…
Anyway I just thought it was important to let the world know that you can be volcel army and still be in a committed ten year relationship. In fact isn’t that what true comradeship is built on?
Weapons grade cope aside, I think I’m one of those weird types of humans who needs affection and so on. Am I really going to have to start dating again? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
i’m actually in a nearly-identical situation, including the “nearly 10 years” bit. it’s…difficult, particularly if you’re the sort of person who, as you said, doesn’t want something unless it’s enthusiastically offered.
i don’t really have any useful advice, unfortunately, but i just wanted you to know you’re not alone. i hope you can strike a balance that works for you both.
I really appreciate the supportive words. It does help. I’m sure we’ll figure it out eventually.
I hope your situation develops for the better too.
It’s really nice to see that you care enough to give it some deep thought and reach out for advice. Good job.
That’s an interesting comment to post that reply to.
