Women's Common Complaint: He's Only Affectionate When He Wants Sex

by DearSugar 29

Guys and girls are so different, especially when it comes to sex and intimacy. Since we are very emotional and nurturing souls, we show someone we care by kissing, hugging, and being affectionate. On the other hand, guys show they care by doing things for their partners — fixing things and solving problems. You see for guys, all that mushy stuff we crave clicks on a switch inside them that says it's time for sex. To his brain and body, affection leads to sex. Perhaps that's why guys rarely hug and kiss you just because! This can be really frustrating for a woman, and can make her feel unloved and unwanted by her man.

So how can you get him to give you a little loving during the day without you two ending up naked? Click here to read more.

Guys aren't mind readers, so it's important to communicate your needs. If you want a guy to hold your hand, reach over and hold his hand. When you're needing a hug, ask for one. If you want your man to make an extra effort to kiss you at other times besides when you're lying in bed, tell him. Just be honest and say that it's important to you to feel loved all the time, not just when he wants to have sex. You may have to remind him a few times since this kind of innocent affection doesn't usually come naturally for guys, but if he knows it means a lot to you, I'm sure he'll come around.
