I Have To Beg My Husband For Affection: Begging For Love And Attention
Sexless marriage woes do not automatically mean divorce.
Many marriages that become sexless, especially among mid-life partners, started out as good marriages, and they still are.
There is a great deal of new information coming from new research on good marriages that become sexless, chiefly among Post-Jungian psychologists and psychotherapists. And the consensus seems to be (sorry, ladies!) that it is the woman who must take the first steps to solve the problem.
This in no way means that it is the woman who is at fault. In fact, psychologists are now telling us that often neither party is at fault. The causes often lie deep within the unconscious inner lives of the man and woman who marry.
So, why must a woman start the healing process? And what can she do?
Ladies, for the moment forget the sex toys, perfumed candles, incense, sexy clothes and sexy lingerie, soft music, losing weight, an alluring tattoo and exotic makeup. You have another job up front if you want one day to enjoy physical sex with a husband who has lost interest.
Post-Jungian psychotherapists, such as John Sanford, tell us not to expect long-term satisfying physical sex from a man who does not acknowledge his emotions. Nor from a man who does not share and express his emotions - with you, with your children, or with his friends.
And do not expect a good marriage that has gone sexless to heal itself if your husband does not relate honestly and intimately with you. At least with you.

A raw natural energy within your husband Jung called a man's Anima may be taking revenge unconsciously within him, cutting off his interest in you and in physical sex with you.
Why?
It may be hard to believe, but your husband was born with this energy or psychic entity or power. It is meant to mature during his lifetime and become his Muse. However, a man must please it by developing his feminine side.
That means recognizing and admitting his feelings and emotions, first of all to himself. And it also means learning to share these feelings with you, his wife, and with his children.
If he does not express his feelings openly, but represses them in favor of logic, strategy and willpower, his Anima will "take offense" and unconsciously and autonomously (that is, without his awareness or consent) work to ruin his sex life, perhaps even his marriage. And this little-understood unconscious power is strong enough to do that - even powerful and insidious enough to lead a man to suicide.
So a woman's first job, if she does want to enjoy a life of physical sex with her husband, now becomes clear. She must seduce her husband to feel - to feel his feelings and his emotions - and to share them with her.
And that is a big job. Even before a woman gets her man to share these feelings, she must get him to acknowledge and actually feel them. Our culture has taught men to repress their emotions in favor of "manliness."
So, what can a woman do?
On a practical level, she must avoid intellectual discussions with her husband about his job, the economy, politics, or anything, really. Instead, she must ignite his feeling life by relentlessly expressing her own emotions, gradually showing him by her example that emotions are nothing to fear and easy to express.rnSurprisingly, this may mean accepting him at his current emotional age, rather than his actual age. A fifty-year old man may be stuck at the emotional age of seven. (Many men are!)
A wise woman will then relate to the seven-year old boy she has married, and plan emotionally fun-at-that-age activities to share with him. A very popular one is, believe it or not, baking cookies with him!
So many men secretly would love to do this because they loved or would have loved to do this with their mothers, but do not dare approach the subject with their wives. It does not match their actual age, nor is it manly!
Changing his mind about this is up to his wife. Just think of fun things a young boy loves to do with his mother, and you have a good beginning toward awakening the emotional life of your husband, and encouraging him to share these feelings with you.
Physical sex may then still be perhaps a long way off for both of you - but chances are it is far closer than it ever was before.

To keep a marriage strong through the years, it requires constant attention. If you begin to let the responsibilities of life overwhelm you, you will forget why it was that you fell in love with your spouse in the first place. This is when a spouse may begin to seek that spark from someone else, someone who sees what you used to see in them. Over time, a relationship can become stale as each trial and mundane responsibility begins to squeeze the passion from it.
Each person has a need for passion, a need for validation, acceptance and love. Although the level of need may be different, the need is always present. When those needs are intense and not being met in a persons current situation it can lead people to violate their personal values in order to meet that need. This again goes back to level of need. Those who do not experience an intense need will have challenges understanding why someone else does. We all have areas of life that we experience intense need, however they are not the same for each person. That is why it is often easier to judge the behavior of others. Because it would not be a problem for us, we judge others who struggle. When in reality there are areas we all struggle in, some are just more visible than others such as addictions, overeating or finance control. Many others are more hidden.
Do you know what your spouse considers an intense need? Do you know what you consider an intense need? Knowing these answers can help you to develop a stronger marriage. Most often when you give your spouse what they need, you are more likely to get what you need. Deny your spouse an intense need for long enough, and their will be a breakdown in the relationship. This is why you need to do some self-discovery and pay attention to what your partner considers important.
Consider an affair. Why do they happen? Most often, a basic intense need is not being met by the spouse, for a prolonged time, and this leads the other spouse to seek a way to fulfill it. This is where we can see otherwise upstanding people, violate their personal values in order to meet an unfulfilled need. I make no excuse for bad behavior, because there is always a point where an intervention could have taken place. It is one thing for a need to go unmet, but another to act on it outside the marriage. At the first sign of disharmony there needs to be a recommitment to understand each other and how, as a couple, you can better meet the needs of your spouse.
What if your spouse don't love you anymore?
Here's how to get them addicted to you like when you fell in love for the first time
When this does not happen, we see very dire consequences. Of course, not all situations happen because of this, but a majority do. There is a percentage of people who, because of something that happened to them, are unable to function appropriately in a marriage relationship. That is an entirely different situation. What I am touching on is what I see happening to so many, once passionate, relationships.
Life enters and the fire goes out. Marriage is much like a fire, it takes constant tending or the flames can go out. You have to monitor the fire and if the coals start to burn down, you must throw another log on the fire. Without this attention, the fire will burn out. All fires need fuel to burn. Stop adding fuel to your marriage, and the same will happen to it. The typical situation happens when a young couple start to develop a life together. They go from a fun dating couple with tons of passion and heat, to homeowners with bills, jobs and responsibilities. This adds a whole new dimension to the carefree time they had before. Then to top it off, many start to have children. Children are a blessing, but they are also the biggest fire extinguishers you can create. Nothing saps romance more than a crying baby, fussy toddler or a disrespectful teenager.
Times like that call for an even stronger marriage to support the stress being put on each individual. Unfortunately what often happens is that this stress breaks the marriage. Couples stop trying to please each other and start complaining about their own needs not being met. This huge disruption can cause a major division in the marriage. "Poor Me Syndrome" leads to feelings of not being loved, valued, accepted, or wanted. When each person turns inward the couple will grow apart. To stop this from happening couples must be aware of the common stresses that will happen during marriage. Things like bills, money problems, family issues, children and mundane duties. You need to realize your breaking points and regroup before too much damage is done.
The solution is to reconnect with your partner and begin to find out what they really need. Then give it to them. You can't make them give you what you need, you can only control you own actions. But when these things are given lovingly and enthusiastically, most often the receiving spouse will feel compelled to meet the others needs out of sheer gratitude. Once again, please note I am talking about otherwise healthy loving relationships that have just lost their spark, not abusive or highly dysfunctional ones. That requires much more in depth counsel than I am touching on.
The reason that I called this article "How to Have an Affair with Your Husband," is because that is one great solution to keep passion alive. Keep in mind this works for husbands as well as wives, but in this example I am using men. Look at your relationship through the eyes of a "mistress." What would they do if they were trying to impress your husband? How would they get his attention and what would they do to keep it? When you figure that out, begin to do it. Your husband will be so amazed and thrilled that the results could be earth shattering. Part II will showcase the 35 Tips for Creating the Perfect "Affair" with Your Spouse.

Do you feel that your spouse's love for you has cooled off? Does he get easily irritated every time you are together? Did he stop expressing his love? Does he stay out most of the time and so you have the fear of losing him one day? How can you survive?
First you need to determine possible reasons why his love for you had changed.
One reason is perhaps there are some faults and foibles that he notices now that he didn't know when you were dating. Or maybe he is having another somewhere. But whatever the reason, you really need to know.
Determining the problem can help you cope and handle the situation. But how will you know the reason of his cooling off? Over and over again you need an honest communication or consultation. Don't delay, the longer the silence, the deeper the wound and the colder the love will become.
What if your spouse already left you? Here's how to get them back.
Communicating would not be easy this time so you need to be tactful. So when discussing matters together try this;
1) Explain how you would like to know the reason why he is acting differently, express your motive that you want your relationship to be happy and that you will work for it.
2) Don't forget to present your thought in respectful manner. Cite it as suggestions, not a final decisions or ultimatum.
2) Ask your spouse to express his opinion, and acknowledge your spouse right to hold a different viewpoint.
3) Be reasonable by adopting your mate's preferences whenever possible. Be tactful, Rather than taking notes of ways in which you feel your spouse ought to change, show him you will change your ways instead.
With this assurance he might be touched to cooperate, and so you can move to next step. Live with what you promised.

One way to increase your chances of enjoying a happy marriage is to remember to breathe deeply. Are you surprised by this recommendation? You're probably not the only one.
The concept of deep breathing as a valuable tool in creating a satisfying marriage may sound strange at first, but that's because most of us don't give much thought to the subject of breathing. And breathing isn't usually tied in with marital happiness unless someone cracks a joke about the "heavy breathing" associated with sex.
What are the benefits of deep breathing that spouses may want to consider? Here's a partial list:
o prevents stress from building up,
o reduces tension that is already there,
o increases energy level,
o reduces insomnia and fatigue,
o reduces general anxiety,
o helps relaxation process,
o lowers blood pressure,
o helps mental alertness, and
o helps in control of emotions.
Just think--all of these benefits from just adding some breathing awareness and exercises to your day! No, this isn't a magic cure-all that comes with a guarantee. But it's free, it's easy, it can be done anywhere, it requires no special equipment, and it's safe--so why not experiment and see for yourself?
But what's wrong with the way you're breathing now, you might ask. If you're a typical adult, you probably breathe most of the time using only your chest muscles, which fills only the top part of the lungs with each breath. This doesn't allow you to take in sufficient oxygen or to eliminate sufficient carbon dioxide. Thus, your body becomes oxygen starved, and toxins build up.

When you're under stress or feeling anxious, your heart rate goes up as you breathe faster and take shallow breaths. In contrast, when you slow down and breathe deeply instead of taking fast, shallow breaths, your heart doesn't have to work as hard, and you are counteracting the effects of stress, tension, and anxiety.
And with that basic understanding, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to connect the dots between deep breathing and feeling better physically and emotionally and how this could affect a marriage relationship.
If you feel better physically, are more relaxed, less stressed and tense, are sleeping better, and are less anxious and fatigued, then you're going to be more likely to have the energy and stamina to put more effort into your marriage relationship. You'll also be more likely to be able to control your emotions better and less likely to "snap" over something minor. And you might be a lot more fun to be around!
Remember that old adage to "Take a deep breath and count to ten" when you're angry? That's still good advice. When you're irritated, agitated, or angry with your spouse, stop and take several deep breaths before you respond and make things even worse.
If you still feel that your anger is escalating, say that you need to take a short break before continuing the conversation. Then, go into another room (if there's no other place to retreat, go into the bathroom) and do several minutes of breathing exercises.
Likewise, when you're feeling stressed and tense, stop and do some breathing exercises before the tension builds up and spills over into your marriage relationship. By using breathing awareness and techniques to relieve tension, you'll be able to prevent many disagreements and arguments that occur when spouses are stressed. You might even find that remembering to breathe deeply during sex increases your pleasure.
What if your spouse already left you? Here's how to get them back.
Here are some simple breathing exercises you can work into your daily life to help you relax and cope better with stress and relationship challenges:
Exercise l: To experience the difference between chest breathing and deep belly breathing, place one hand on your chest and the other hand on your tummy. You will probably notice that the hand on your chest is moving with each breath.
Your goal is to reverse this and have the hand on your tummy move instead of the hand on your chest as you inhale and exhale. If it's hard to experience this sitting down, you may wish to lie down on the floor where it can be easier to experience belly breathing initially.
Just observe your breathing as you take deep breaths and feel your belly rise with each inhalation. Do this for several minutes until your breathing slows down and you begin to feel more relaxed.
Exercise 2: Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and focus your attention on the two pauses that occur during the breathing process. The first is just after you inhale (right before you start to exhale) and the second is just after you exhale (right before you inhale again).
Don't try to control your breathing; just focus on the two pauses, noticing how the breath pauses slightly each time. Just notice the two slight pauses as you breathe in and out. As you focus your attention on the two pauses, you'll find that you are breathing more deeply and are getting more relaxed.
Take this mini-stress-relieving break twice a day and allow yourself at least five minutes of peaceful relaxation each time.
Exercise 3: Put one hand on your abdomen right below your navel. Inhale slowly and deeply through your nose. Imagine that you are blowing up a balloon as your lower abdomen starts filling up with air.
Count slowly to 3 as you inhale. You'll notice that your hand is rising as your abdomen fills with air.
Pause and count to 2. Then exhale slowly through your nose to a count of 3. Imagine that all of the air is leaving the balloon. Repeat this several times.
Exercise 4: Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and take a deep breath as you count slowly to 4. Then hold your breath for a count of 4.
Next, exhale slowly to a count of 8, making your exhalation twice as long as your inhalation. You may want to put one hand on your abdomen to be sure you are breathing deeply from your belly. Repeat several times.
Saying or doing the wrong thing can actually cause your spouse to feel even more distant from you. You can make your spouse
fall back in love with you, all over again.
You don't have to worry about whether your spouse is on the brink of asking you for a divorce. You can control the situation and use
specific techniques to naturally make them fall hopelessly in love with you.
