I am married too & he has always just been the kind of person that can't show affection..I knew that & I don't plan on chnging him. He & I have sex almost ev. night & he cuddles me at night or whatever & he tickles me sometimes, but nothing else...ever. I am o.k. with it though. I also have a hard time expressing affection.

You can't go on like this, a marriage can't thrive with one person giving so little love & affection. I really feel like you have to be firmer when you talk to him, tell him that that you are really unhappy with his lack of affection and it has got to stop. If he does not change you may want to consider leaving.
All the best x

I am sorry to hear that you are going through a difficult time.
Has he only recently started behaving like he doesnt care? it could just be that now you're married the novelty has gone out of the window and it has hit home that a marriage is a partnership that takes a lot of effort to make it work on both sides of the door...your husband is coming across as cold and careless maybe you should have a talk with him go out to dinner or something and tell him how it makes your heart break when he talks to you like dirt and acts like he doesn't care...ask him if there's anything going on with him personally that would cause him stress or worry...it's very possible that he is feeling as hurt as you are...you need some direction with your marriage do you and your husband do things together? like go to the movies for example you need to make time for each other... find something you both enjoy that can bring you closer together :-) also you really do need to give each other some space too so make sure that you're not smothering each other, and if you both work you should be ok as you'll not be living on top of each other...sometimes we need to take a step back to appreciate what we have... if after all of this, you see no improvement. You should take a break apart for a few days to clear your heads, hope i could help you good luck...:-)

He probablly has a low sex drive. You should have noticed this before you married. You need to get used to it or leave.
