It's Been So Long
I miss sex. Not just sex but any physical affection. I was married for 24 years, divorced 6 years ago, no relationship, physical or otherwise, since the divorce. Since before the divorce as we we're sparated for a year and a half. I feel so pathetic as I write this. I haven't been touched or held, much less had sex, in so long. I wonder if it will ever happen again. I suspect it won't and that makes me very sad. I'd probably pay for it but I don't have a clue how to go about such a transaction. I feel ashamed and pathetic.
@WorthyStruggle hey there. theres nothing wrong with missing physical touch and intimacy at all, its a human feeling and need. i know this post is already a bit old ( i just saw it for the first time), so im wondering how things may have turned out for you.
@WorthyStruggle
Like the other poster said, there's nothing wrong with missing physical affection. It's a natural human need and want to feel close to other people. After I went through a breakup, I felt the same way you did. I missed just simple things like a hug, laying in bed next to someone I cared about or resting my head on a shoulder.
You're being too hard on yourself. You're not pathetic. There's always a chance for it to happen again or for you to find someone new. I don't think you'll have to pay for it because there's a lot of free dating apps where you can find someone new or even just someone for a night to be intimate with. There's nothing wrong with either of those things.
