I am putting this on here and it may well get taken down i really don’t know but here goes
Does anybody on here miss there husband /wife/partner for the physical side of there marriage because i woke up missing my husband for that this morning and i burst into tears not because of missing him but because i thought to myself this is wrong i should not be thinking things like this i really don’t know and he has been gone 5 years who i am supposed to talk to about any of this i can only put it on here in a hope other people might understand am i the only one thinking and feeling this way
No you’re definitely not alone in thinking like this. Of course it’s only natural to miss our husbands for the physical side, it’s such an important part of your love for one another.
I miss my Ray so much that I thought I was going mad thinking like you. It’s not like it’s something you can discuss with anyone, not even friends.
Unfortunately I fell into a pattern of letting that side of our marriage slide, and now it’s the most massive regret. I don’t know why, life I suppose and not making the time. Time which I have plenty of these days. All I see are couples going round holding hands, and they’re much older than us too. Life is so unfair. Some mornings I just cry when I wake up and see the empty side of the bed. I’d give anything just to cuddle him tight again. I can’t believe I never will, so no, you’re certainly not alone in thinking like this. I’m glad you started this thread
I think it’s something everyone misses at some point. It’s not just that it’s the closeness we have all shared with our lifelong partners. Every morning as I made tea my husband would stand behind me and hug me while I made it. If he came in and I was ironing he’d hug me again, your favourite job he’d say.
We knew each other so well, I feel lucky to have had that with the most wonderful caring man. We are all going to miss it.
Hi Sarah no you are not wrong in thinking this way, I raised the subject with a counsellor recently at a bereavement meeting and she told me that it’s normal for a lot of people. To think of spending the rest of my life with out love and tenderness is so sad.
That is so sad i feel i want love but only his and i feel if i did find love again i would not know what to do i have never dated in this big wide world and find that i cannot do that at all so i am destined to be on my own forever sad is it not
I thought the thread woukd be taking down but i think it is something tha needs addressing after all we had a happy and full marriage and that was a big part of it , your husband soynds very much like mine we where always hugging and kissing even in front if people paul did not mind that how he showed he loved you to the whole world if he could that was him and i do miss him for all of it the physical side i too i have never dated paul was a blind date and it was love at first site and forever but forever just was not long enough for me i don’t even think i would want to do that again but i just thought it is a subject no one ever talks about they can talk about sex on the telly but we cannot on here why its not wrong people open up we are all the same
