i consider myself happily married for over ten years. We have some issues. I'm getting tired of him being irresponsible. Doesn't pay enough attention to me. etc etc. Problem is, i have found myself fantasizing about other men. Feel yucky for it! It's not intentional. Anyone else feel similar? Suggestions?

    it happens sometimes, all i can say is you need to express yourself openly and honestly about how you feel about him and what you need from him. Try doing it telling "I feel this, when you do that" not YOU . . .You . . .You!

    I wouldn't mention the fantasizing part to him but that is just me, once you get the relationship from him you need you most likely won't feel a need for that, if you do thatn maybe it is not something that can be fxed but you never know he may not care.

    I think you need to figure out if you are just sexually lusting after others or you are searching for an emotional connection or the "perfect man" in you head


    good luck

    Consider marriage counseling. You both need to be willing to sit down, communicate your issues/concerns, and find solutions together.
