No attraction

I've been married for 18 years. I have always dealt with depression and had been taking medicine for that really zapped my desire. My husband was very loving, patient, and understanding through all of this.for a couple years we only had sex every 6 months or so. I had my Dr. change my medicine and now I really want sex. Problem is Im not enjoying sex with my husband. Im never satisfied (even after orgasm) . I just feel disappointed. I find myself wishing he was bigger, but never felt this way before (maybe it's from having 5 kids?).

Also, when I look at him I don't feel the love I have once felt. I'm not physically attracted to him. This all pains me so. Not sure what to do.

I don't know how to tell him how I feel without hurting him.

I do not think we can resolve these items without some hurt feelings and the longer you put off the "talk" the worse it will be....

i prolonged because he "did not learn how to talk about some things" again sounds like a easy out for spouse....same goes with culture excuses as well....

I tried total honesty was very painful i think but he takes a while for things to sink in ..... i am truely sure that the bitterness and resent will make my spouse unattractive from now on....

I do not know how to change that ... if anyone figures that out send me a note....
