Love after baby
Relationship Stress / by Thoughtdweller

...See more I’m having trouble connecting with my partner after having our baby. He is finding the adjustment very difficult and I feel like I’m walking on eggshells everyday. we haven’t been intimate in anyway (3months) even though I try to initiate it all the time, I try to kiss him passionately and I get a peck and turns his head away.. I’ve dressed in lingerie, had the baby asleep and nothing.. I’ve sent nsfw photos to him trying to get something and I get nothing. It’s starting to really take a toll on me and my self esteem as I can only take so much rejection… I know relationships are more than sex, I’ve tried to talk to him about how he feels, how I can support him, does he feel like he’s missing something and I get nothing useful in return. I’m just at a loss. does anyone have advice on bringing the spark back after having a baby and how to support a depressed partner?

...See more I really just need to type this out.. I just found out my partner has been cheating on me. I’m 14 weeks pregnant and we just had a scan today, my baby is growing healthy.. this is should be the happiest time of my life. he had cheated in the past, I thought we worked through it. We planned this baby and our future and it was a lie to him… I’m so broken, this isn’t how it was supposed to be. I don’t want to talk to anyone I know about this.. I can’t bare it. So I came here..am I that pathetic

How to trust again
Relationship Stress / by Thoughtdweller

...See more My partner and I have been together for 2 years, we’ve been friends for 7. When we met we were working together and he was married, that relationship ended and we got together. As we worked together and he was my superior in the office we had to keep it quiet. I quit my job so we could have a normal relationship. I found a photo of a topless co-worker on his phone and he sent a topless photo back. When I confronted him about it he said it was a huge mistake, he feels sick about it and he will never do it again, said he’s scared of getting hurt again like his first marriage and freaked out as we have now completely intergrated our families. Something that hurts the most is... I was in the house when he received and sent the photo.. my hairbrush abs makeup are in the photo. I reacted with emotion, I knew of the girl (who is married) took a screenshot of it and sent it to her husband. I don’t know how to move on from this.. I love him so much. Any advice welcome
