Husband isn’t excited by my body.. we are newlyweds.. (26F)

I am a size eight and have a nice body and take care of myself but I feel disgusted at myself that my own husband told me that he isn’t excited by me? My feelings are so hurt.

Whether or not you give some dude a boner isn't representative of your worth as a human being. That's... not what God made you for. Just... chill, please. And your waist size doesn't have anything to do with this situation or your worth. I'm a butch fat married lady and I feel just fine. You're putting way too much stock into conventional attractiveness and male attention (even if he's your husband).

Maybe you are expecting too much of him. Two times a weeks is more than a hell of a lot of healthy marriages. It's called being an adult. If he has a full-time job, he's probably coming home tired as hell. A lot of couples only have sex on weekends because they are just so tired during the week.

Also, maybe you're trying too hard to be sexy all of the time and it makes him uncomfortable, like maybe he doesn't want everything to be about sex everyday. Maybe he just has a low libido. Maybe he's some douchebag that watches porn. You need to talk to him.
