If I ask him for any of this, I'm nagging. If I whine or cry or complain, I'm crazy & hormonal. I have always been one who NEEDS reassurance that I AM loved. I'm NEEDY.
I don't think you're needy. People who are in relationships are supposed to show some sort of affection for each other. It doesn't matter if it's your husband, sister, friend, coworker, or guy at the corner store who smiles at you every day. When there's a relationship, there has to be some acknowledgement of it.
Can you tell your husband any of this? You don't have to get into the details if you don't feel comfortable with that, but maybe something like, "I could use an occasional hug or kiss. It's hurtful when you don't show any affection towards me." (My words are kind of lame but you get the point.)
I hope you feel better. And don't apologize - if you can't bitch on LJ, where can you bitch?
Hey hey, you don't need to apologize for anything! You can write anything you want here and we will be here to read about it!
I second Valerie's reply. I think you need to tell B at least something of what you're feeling. No matter if his work is overwhelming at the moment, he needs to know how you feel.
You know I love you and send you bigwarmyhugsandkissesyourway (Tm). NOW GO EAT SOME SUGAAAAR! tee hee
