lately i feel like i'm not attracted to my husnand anymore, i do love him of course, but i feel quite alarmed by my feelings at the moment as i'm happier when he is not around, and i just find him anoying when he is around, he is a really great husband, father and provider, so i don't know why i am feeling this way, so i'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this, it dosn't feel right to feel this way, and what they did to get past it, my husband works away 2 weeks on then 1 week of, i think this may have something to do with it, my husband dosn't seem to have a problem he still shows alot of affection and i know finds me VERY attractive(which is driveing me nuts) but i just don't feel the same anymore whats wrong with me and what can i do to get my feelings back?

spark gone
Hi, my husband and I were at this stage about 5 yrs ago.He was doing refridgerated semi driving for 3 yrs and was hardly home in that period.Heres me sitting at home with 4 children to take care of and while your husband is not at home you get in your own routine with your children,and then when hubby comes home and unsettles it all,so yes it is easier for them just not to come home.
In the last 5 weeks of my husband doing fridgies we saw him for 2 days and not even full days at that and of course he had to be serviced (sex)in the short time he was home and I really didn't feel like it as I was too annoyed with him because he was never home I know he was only doing it to support his family financially but he was not here supporting me as a husband ,father and me as a wife mother and there was other options.
I had ,had enough finacially we were no better off than if he had a local truck driving job ,because of what he spent on the road.So I gave him an option family or the job.He soon finished up with the fridgies and as he had a good reputation in our local area as a sand and gravel truck driver he had a new job to start the next day.
He has now been home permenantly with us for 5 yrs and we have never been happier ,we go camping ,fishing and all the family stuff and he realizes now he missed out on so much of our younger boys growing up.I too met my husband very young I was only just 17 and he was 18 but in my experience my husband and I grew together.We have been together for 18 yrs in august and married for 15, i think the longer he is away the worse things may get.So if finacially your husband is able to get a local job and be home with his family in time things may get better,and the spark may return.

yes i can relate to what your saying, and yes i deffinately think it is because he is away so much, i get use to doing things on my own, and i feel kinda anoyed that the only thing he wants to do when he gets home is obviously you know what, which is completely understandable, but for me its so hard as i havn't seen him in two weeks and theres alot i want to talk to him about, it makes me feel under presure all the time, then it makes me angry inside, hurt and so on, and there never seems to be enough time to spend together so i feel close to him again, but then once i do hes gone again ugh! it drives me nuts! i'm on my own then i'm not i'm on my own then i'm not arrrr, anyway hubby took this job so we could get ahead finacially and so when the mines open up in albany in a couple years he will have the experience he needs to get a local job down there were he will be home every night, so we will soldier on lol, i have noticed though it comes and goes its not always like this so i'm hopeing it will pass, hubby gets home today so i'm gonna have a talk to him about how i feel more, so hopefully we can try and sort something out, or at least try to find ways to make it easier
i miss it when he use to come home everyday, (hes been doing this job for the last year and a half) it was so much easier then, with no emotional ups and downs, i look forward to when hes finished working up there

hi there... first off, i just looked at your profile and you have a BEAUTIFUL family. you've been very blessed with five gorgeous children and a loving husband, and at such a young age. i think that may be one source of your problem... you've been with this great guy for practically your whole life and maybe you might feel like you're missing out on something. trust me, you're not! a strong happy UNITED family is the most important thing that one can obtain in this lifetime, and it needs to be nurtured. marriage is tough, you have to constantly work at it. the fact that your husband is away so much is not a good thing, especially if you're happier during his absence. i really think you need to sit down and talk with him about your feelings. i think you guys might need more alone time, just the two of you. get a babysitter and go on a datenight once or twice a month. a few months ago, i was feeling really distant from my husband and wasn't attracted to him and like you, was happier when he wasn't around. finally, we had a HUGE blowout! what came of it is that now he's more attentive to my needs, which makes me happy and thus, attracted to him again. love is funny like that, and sometimes it's easier to leave a relationship than it is to stay. in your case, i really think you (and your husband) need to do anything and everything to put that "spark" back in your marriage. you have five little ones that deserve it. aside from infidelity and abuse, there are no excuses, in my opinion, to break up a family. good luck!

spark gone = You are not alone!
I know exactly how you feel, I too am confused at the moment as am not sure if I love my husband any more, or i am just really angry at him & also can't stand it if he tries to touch me, not that it happens any more. I was concerned about this & went & talked to my doctor, just last Monday, who reassured me that the majority of women with young kids feel this way. She recommended I take a mild AD to get 'my spark' back & suggested I go & talk to a councellor about my feelings etc.. So my suggestion to you is, go & see your Dr & have a chat with them, they are probably the best ones to help you. Also, please feel free to visit me, as talking to people who are in a similar situation, sometimes helps. Wishing you all the best. Try & keep your chin up! I'm trying too! RobynM.

hey there!,
yeah i get that alot now, mine is because of this depo... injection, are you on any contraceptive meds (the pill etc...)? these could be the problem, it didnt kick in straight away for me, it took a while before i wasnt interested. I force myself to get close to him, he has done nothing wrong and once i get close, that unattracted feeling goes away...
if you arent on meds, maybe you should see a doc, it could be something as minor as hormones doing this to you. you mentioned a while ago that you couldnt sleep???
dont worry, you know you love him and he loves you, you will get past this
i probably didnt help much, but best of luck :)
luv channy xx
