I wonder what is broken with intimacy in sex addicts?
In reading other blogs of sex addicts, or reading other's like me write about their partners sex addiction, I find a very similar pattern.....
Sex Addicts do not know how to have an emotional intimate relationship. They just can't seem to figure it out. For them, it is all about sex.
When I tell my husband I would like to work on our emotional relationship... he just doesn't seem to grasp it. I can come right out and give suggestions, but still nothing.
Does he just not want to do it?
Instead, he tries to send me sexy text messages or act out some type of sexual fantasy. His suggestions for us to grow closer are all sexual.
My thoughts are different. Spending time together. Talking. Sharing our thoughts, concerns, goals, daily experiences. I guess because I am so sensitive to the sexual addiction.... I would say anything that is not sex related would help.
Instead, we both end up get made at each other and not meeting each other's needs.
Every once and a while we find a nitch. Every once and a while we have a moment.
Unfortunately, those moments are very far and in between.
Why are men and woman so different?
