What can I do about the lack of affection in a marriage?

Answer by  Dontbugme (697)

How long this has been going on? Has he always been unaffectionate or is this a recent development? I would start with marriage counseling. But there can be other causes. Is he impotent and does not want you to know? Whatever the cause, it requires investigation, both medical and psychological.

Sometimes you have to be the instigator--you have to give to receive. Show him that you care about him, and give the affection you would like to get.

Try having a serious talk with him and tell him how you feel. Suggest that you both go see a marriage counselor and let him know you love him still.
