I am so confused, I am all for what he wants but i don't think when i caught him that I was what he wanted..??? advice please

Many people hook up with others because they are lonely and need someone. Sometimes these people like the other person but are not very physically attracted to them. It sounds like the guy is not very attracted to you physically. But probably just likes you, likes to be with you. There are many marriages like that. It's called "settling" cause you can't do better.

You actually married each other without first settling the question of having/not having children and when to do it?

You guys have a long road ahead of you

Find an older woman to mentor you, there are a lot of things I don't think you understand and need to learn about, starting with how to communicate effectively with your spouse.

If he isn't interested in sex with you at 30, it's only going to get worse. There's some other psychology going on here. I was married to a man who tried to use sex as a control mechanism. And he looked at porn. Just wasn't interested in doing those things with me.

I have since moved on and I can tell you there are men who want to have sex with their SO. As often as time and physiology will allow.

Be really careful NOT to get pregnant. There may be some big life changes ahead for you. Changes that will be complicated by having a child at 20.

If your husband is having thyroid problems with low T levels, he needs to be seen by a specialist. As for him looking at KS, maybe he was trying to work on getting motivated for sex with you.

I've dealt with someone with lowT and it isn't that he's not interested in you, it's that his body doesn't cooperate. It's as frustrating for him as it is for you. Don't take things personally and work on the issues at hand which, right now, are physical with him.

Her profile says she has 2 children.

It also states she weighs over 300lbs.

At the age of 20, with 2 kids and being significantly overweight, there are some major issues going on here. But then she states she wants children so who knows what is truth and what is fabricated in the whole story.

Djuna...that's "ferret" children......worrywort23....maybe your husbands desire to have kids is very strong for him right now....maybe he's consoling himself by trying to substitute new pleasures in sex with what he really wants...children.....I don't know how long you 2 have been together, but the subject of when/if a couple have children is a subject that should not be put on the back burner...sounds to me that untill you trully discuss what/when you both want in life...your relationship may faulter......have a good talk....as others have said.....once you're both on the same page,I think all things will/can become better...and by the sounds of it....more exiting.
