Does anyone have trouble being intimate with their partner/spouse? Is it because you don't feel like it or your partner doesn't or they're afraid of hurting you or not finding you attractive?
My hubby also has fibromaglia so it's a case of are you sore and then r u sore. People laugh at us but it's not so funny to us at all

My husband and I have been together for 8 years. The sex was awesome and often at the beginning of our relationship. In 2012 I had 4 back surgeries within 45 days and it was very traumatic for me physically and emotionally. I also blacked out 3 weeks after my first surgery due to a spinal fluid leak and busted my chin on our concrete floor, had 8 stitches. Now with fibro, TMJ and all the other issues we have sex 2-3 times a week, where before it was every night. I'm always in pain. If we exchange back rubs before it is better. He is 10 yrs younger than me (33) and I used to look 10 yrs younger. I've gained about 50 lbs with less movement and meds. He still thinks I'm sexy and we are still very much in love. He hates that I'm in constant pain and if I'm having a bad day he understands. I hope this helps you some. Hugs
My husband when we first got together we couldn't get past the front door some times before jumping each other's bones ..
Then pregnancy happened and with it came fibro and severe SPD for the last two months of my first pregnancy I was bed bound in hospital...
I had a c-section as it was advised so technically nothing downstairs had changed I never even had a labour pain .... When we could have sex again after our daughter was born he was so much more delicate with me and I hated it. I wanted back the raw intense throwing my legs up and back and tiying my hands up but he was so scared of hurting or worse still damaging me he just stayed doing it missionary style ... Then very quickly after I was pregnant again with my son and of course my pain intensified but my sex drive increased hubby however stayed like a faithful snail..😭😭 don't get me wrong I love my husband with everything I am but sometimes I'll sacrifice a little pain for some down and dirty pleasure.
I know that he's always found me attractive although honestly I don't see what he sees, I see a broken skeleton where his wife used to be. But him he's perfect he moans about putting weight on around his middle but I say to him I prefer cuddling you knowing you can protect me and the kids and we feel safe and cosy against a dad who is always at the gym for who ..
Me and my man are a perfect fit little and large and occasionally I just take charge and show him it doesn't hurt 😝
There are times when im just in pain. My legs and back hurt and I can't find a comfortable position. And its hard to get in the mood or feel sexy when you aren't feeling well. for me, again, a little edible medical marijuana helps. Puts me in the mood and numbs the pain a bit so we can keep the fires going.
