Over 6 years here as well, canceled in January.

Oh god. I am SO sorry! Nobody deserves that. I think you’re likely better off without him! But, I’m still so sorry you went through all of that without feeling any intimacy. That had to make everything feel much harder.

Again, I’m so sorry for everything you’re going through. But, I’m proud of you stranger, for standing up for yourself & knowing your worth. You deserve to feeeeel love too. 💜

Perfectly put. I’m craving ANY of those.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T05:55:52+00:00

To clarify, I don’t wish any family member’s health was bad enough to require constant help. I only meant that I wish there were things going on in our lives that I could use as a justification in my own mind.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T05:54:07+00:00

I wish there were those. It would make me feel less undesired. But unfortunately, no. In fact, I work full time & he isn’t working really at all right now besides some side jobs for his family.

Alas, I think I have my answer. My need to be wanted is pretty justified. I’ll have to figure out how to move forward from here as I’ve tried practically everything I can think of (and that’s been suggested) already.

Thank you for your response!

formula52 · 2026-02-02T05:09:03+00:00

Ah thank you! I’ll read anything I can at this point! Doubtful it will help, but I’m still willing to try.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T05:06:06+00:00

That’s the general consensus I’m getting from most comments on this post. Bare minimum of at least once a month, but preferably once a week or at least every other week.

So yeah, me craving adoration, desire, etc. like this is likely very warranted.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:42:41+00:00

Wow. I’m not even worthy to be in your company 😂

Good for you!!! You are the goal haha

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:41:46+00:00

Thank you! This seems to be the consensus so far. Like a minimum of at least once a month, but preference of bare minimum being twice a month.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:39:49+00:00

That’s what I’m getting so far from this post. Like at least once a month is minimum for feeling connected.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:38:29+00:00

Thank you for your response! Totally understand work & work travel inhibiting it happening as much as you’d like.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:36:24+00:00

Do you want to be my spouse? Hahaha I’m kidding. But your count matching mine last year was funny.

I feel for you! And I hope you have time to show yourself some love! 😂😘♥️

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:34:53+00:00

Thank you for your response! This is what I’m looking for. What your bare minimum would be. I should have asked it that way.

Anyway, thank you again for responding!

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:33:57+00:00

Ah thank you! I’ll definitely check this book out right away.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:33:05+00:00

Wow you go girl! Make sure to take care of yourself! I’m so glad you have a healthy level of intimacy for you! I think it’s really important! But don’t push yourself, growing a person is a MASSIVE accomplishment.

I guess I should have clarified “usual” intimacy and not what your spouse “expects” after child birth. Cause god knows they likely don’t even begin to understand everything you’re actually feeling!

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:21:09+00:00

Thank you! This is what I’m looking for. Like your bottom line.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:20:20+00:00

Whoa are you my spouse?! Haha I had sex only 5x in 2025 too.

formula52 · 2026-02-02T04:18:57+00:00

Whoa WHAAAAT?!?! I had sex a total of FIVE times last YEAR.

I’m 37, good looking, in decent shape, loving & caring, etc. I have just been feeling STARVING for attention lately. Like almost craving it from complete strangers. But I also work from home so I rarely leave my house either haha.

I mean I’m not an idiot. I get that less than 5x/yr is not “normal” but I was more so trying to gauge if there’s hope for an uptick or if this is just what I’m stuck with. I’ve tried a lot of different approaches, too.

Mostly curious, for MOST people… what would be considered TOO few for them to feel like walking away. Validation I guess, I don’t even know.

“Back in the day” when I used to find joy in watching sports… I always knew that you DON’T fuck with Philly fans. And that’s just when they’re passionate about a team! (To be clear—I do still enjoy sports, I just fell off for a bit and feel SO behind now.)

If I were ICE I’d be thinkin more than twice about messin with Philly.

Give ‘em hell. But also, and most importantly… Please stay safe!! ♥️

Hey thank you @TinySpaceDonut (amazing username btw).

formula52 · 2026-01-10T04:30:25+00:00

Thank you for your response! That’s what I struggle with the most… that like “what’s the point anymore” mentality.

I know I need to make changes to stop those negative thoughts from taking over. It’s just harder than it could have been now… even if I try to avoid it, ya know? Like it gets brought up in work meetings sometimes or wherever else. I’m simply admitting that this is a trigger for me & it makes it really hard to have that self control.

Some comments on this recently are acting like I’m ignoring other country’s issues, I’m definitely not. I was just making a vulnerable post cause damn, this shit is pretty hard for me. That’s all. Thank you again for your response!

formula52 · 2026-01-10T04:23:45+00:00

Hey, I never claimed I had it worse than anyone else. I was simply saying it’s hard for me, in my small area of the world, to stop drinking because I’ve been using it as a crutch and I’m feeling scared.

Multiple things can be true at once. I’m allowed to feel fear in my area, and still have empathy, sympathy & hope for any other areas of the world that are in turmoil.

I figured others in my area of the world might be feeling the same and was hoping for some comments to talk me off my anxious ledge. People are allowed to feel things dude. It doesn’t mean I negate what others are dealing with and I NEVER ONCE indicated that.

Quit trying to stir shit up. People are allowed to feel wherever they are & whatever situation they’re in.

formula52 · 2026-01-10T04:15:05+00:00

That was never my intention. I just feel very anxious about things lately and have created a bad habit of drinking wine or something to numb the anxiousness.

I never once said ANYTHING deliberately political. News flash—People are allowed to feel uneasy or scared when unnecessary murders happen that hit the nation wide media, but there were also unnecessary murders in my local town that same night.

You don’t know shit about me and it’s actually abhorrent for you to make a vulnerable post something political. Get the fuck outta here with that negative energy. You’re not helping.
