Thank you for responding. I honestly do try. I do things throughout our day like “You are so beautiful babe.” Or “I hope you know how important you are to me.” All the time. We both have children. Everyother wweekend we have a couple days just to ourselves that I always try to fill with fun, dinner, friends (she is very social), and sleeping in with breakfast in bed! Yes I’m a rare guy, but also love her and put her happiness before my own….. She shuts down when romance is involved. When we cuddle up in bed for a while, if I start to gently kiss her neck and run my hand down her arm I get “sigh, cmon babe what are you doing??” Do this during the day I’ll get “Stop it! I just did my make up!”..…… This becomes very disheartening for me. I’m almost ready to throw in the towel except, I love her, I love her daughter, and my son loves them too. But, I cannot make a relationship last on “I love you too babe.”
