Drastic change in married couples life
My husband and I have always had in my opinion an above average sex life. We kept things spicy and would watch porn together maybe 3/4 times a month. Before turning the porn on though we would be already touching each other sexually without the porn. Now flash forward to December we got married and so I feel like the past few weeks our sex life has went out the window. Now he doesn't ever even attempt to make moves on my. If I ask him to come to bed with me he either comes to bed and turns porn on while sitting on the complete opposite side of the bed he don't touch me or anything. Only himself. Or he goes into the bathrooms for about an hour before he will come to bed and hides that he's watching porn. We went from not being able to keep our hands off each other to he don't touch me at all sexually. He says he feels like something is wrong with him and sometimes he has problems staying hard. Now we are also getting ready to move across country, we are going to see a specialist because I have infertility issues, we aren't planning on pregnancy any time soon, just want to see what we will be looking at for the future so we can plan financially. My question is why is my husband so repulsed by me now. I feel like so terrible when we finally do have sex...its like pity sex... Does anyone have any advice. Yes I have tried seducing him and we didn't have a boring sex life before by any means... Struggling with my self esteem at this point

My understanding of this is that: it isn't you, he isn't repulsed by you, but for some reason to do with the peculiarities of the male brain, porn is easier to relate to than a live woman.
For me, I would want to know if he can recognise the dangers to your relationship in what he is doing. Then, can he stop? If he can't stop, then he needs to address a porn addiction in therapy. If he can stop, he should stop, and after some time, "normal service should be resumed" lol.
You are absolutely right not to ignore this. Your relationship depends on it.
