Re: Another question - maybe a husband can answer
I'm a woman, but people tell me I regard sex from "the male perspective" more than the female so maybe I can help. First, the anti- depressant. Get him to a doctor. Check the dosage (may be too high), have sex before he takes it (if he takes it at night), or try a different prescription. No one should have to suffer like that.<BR>As for the Madonna/Whore thing, most men have it, just don't admit it. My own dear hubby was confused after witnessing me give birth and breastfeed--I still can't get his attention while I'm wearing that particular nightshirt. I've always lived by this motto: To keep your man truely happy you must be a lady in the parlor, a chef in the kitchen and a whore in the bedroom. Let him know that once the bedroom door is closed and locked, you are there for his pleasure and nothing else matters (unless, of course, the kids start crying). Never ever use sex as a bargaining tool and never hold out to punish him. No kidding. It works for us. Just don't let him get stupid. The other problem may be due to him stressing about his torn emotions, too. Let me know if this helps.
