Intimacy and sex
My (34m) wife (27f) is feeling like I only want her for sex. I have a high sex drive to begin with and am on testosterone so that doesn’t help. I feel closest to her and most connected when we have sex. She doesn’t feel connected because I want to have sex so much and turn everything sexual. I’m at a loss and have no clue what to do. My plan is just to try really hard to not have sex at all and show her that’s not why i married her. She is not super affectionate while I am a very affectionate person. I’m trying to compromise and find some middle ground as I love this woman deeply. She doesn’t initiate and has done it one time early on but only once out of the two years of being togther. Does anyone have advice and been through similar experiences. Outside of what I just mentioned, everything is great. We get along well, we laugh and have fun, we enjoy each others company. I don’t want to be a horny jerk and I want her to feel loved
