I have a full time job, with wife and kids. My job is taking up most of my time, that i bearly have time left for my family. My wife understands the pressure of my job, and will comfort and console me. When i am home, the kids are asleep. We hardly get the chance to talk. Sigh.
The problem is, my wife is so used to the routine, that she isn't interested in getting intimate with me. It's my fault, because I am always so very tired when i get home, that i would doze off at once when i am on the bed! Sigh!
I need help, how do i get my wife interested again? :(
Hello,
Sorry to hear about your problem, but its nice to know you are concerned about her. Like you said she might used to your routine that and she figures you worked all day and need to rest. My advice to you is to do something nice for her nothing big just something that lets her know you love her: send her flowers or write her a short note telling her how great she is, but give it to her in the morning just before you go to work that way she thinks of you all day. Trust me little things like that count. What ever you do, don't let her know you are doing it in exchange for .
p.s. Every woman likes compliments
don't do everything at once it can be over whelming.
Good LucK!
Hope this helped:Shy1

This is what you do, go by a journal and say there are 100 pages of papers,write 1 thing you love about your partner on each page.....she will love it

I need help, how do i get my wife interested again? my problem is sort of the same, working way to much, being tired... the biggest issue is the fact that my wife has lost all interest for intimacy with me at all. This has caused me to have trust issues with her and I don't know what to do, it is making me crazy.............:(

I had a job, once.
What is more important? Job? Wife? House? Kids? New car? Lake house? Boat?
If you do not have time for your wife, for an ongoing relationship with your wife, why are you feeling ‘left-out’ when she doesn’t have the time for you? What do you bring to the table? How much effort are you putting into loving your wife? Not to be confused with “honey, please, I have three minutes to kill and its been three weeks!”

I dealt with a similar situation recently. I learned it wasn't just how hectic my schedule was that was getting in the way, but how boring my wife's routine had become. I blocked out a week, sent the boy away, and took my wife away for some alone time. She came back around quickly when taken away from our routine, and our problem has not recurred yet. As a side note, a hot tub made a big difference.

Why are we here? What day are you going to die on? What do you plan on dying from? The way I see it is that IM here to make a family and live a full life, I dont know when IM dying or how so i spend every minute doing what i can to be with my family and be happy.... make time for them cause you never know when your not going t wake up!

This post got dug up from the past and I wonder how things are for him. Anyway I would suggest a marriage counseling seminar that they both can attend for a weekend and have that time just together and a group can work out the problems with them and also get that spark going.
