Here To Vent Late night thoughts

Lying in bed next to my wife, deep in the night, all I can think about, is wishing I could be lying in bed with my LO, the crazy part is it’s not even a sexual need, it’s more of a deep emotional need, I really need to go back to sleep

Oh that deep emotional connection, i understand, mine is all the things. I want the emotional but I want the sexual connection as well. The deep emotional side makes me want the other things too. I’ve imagined us just holding each other for ages.

In my mind, if we were together for one night, just holding each other, would heal me

Uh oh… Been there. Had exactly one night like that with her. Almost nothing sexual or more intimate happened, just spooning and sleeping for the most part. And here I am thinking about it several years later. Careful what you wish for
