But his words dragged me down like a crashing wave slamming against sharp rocks. I…

We’ve only been married for nine months. Before that, we were together for four years. During those four years, he was really focused on sex. He wanted it often, and I didn’t see a reason to say no, so I gave in whenever he asked. I can’t say sex was the only thing that kept us close, but it definitely played a big role. Even when we had big arguments that lasted for days, sex was usually what brought us back together. After a fight, it always felt more intense, like we were pouring everything into it. It almost felt…
