POLL: Next Day Ire

in Reader Questions by Guigar

Friday, May 06, 2011 - 12:00 AM

> A reader writes... Q: My husband is a warm, kind, gentle, and affectionate man. Except after sex. Actually the sex itself is fine. The problem is what happens the next day. He isn’t mean, but almost every time the day after we have sex, he is very cold and distant towards me. When he does talk to me he is usually very short and kind of just keeps to himself. Then that day passes and it’s like nothing happened and he goes back to his normal loving self. He even acknowledges he has a problem with this, but doesn’t know why it happens. I asked him if I was doing things he didn’t like during sex and he said that wasn’t a problem at all. I even tried to have a sense of humor about it and asked if he had another wife and felt guilty, which he thought was funny but solved nothing. Is counseling the answer here?
POLL: What should she do?
 
 38% (579) This is the way her husband is wired. Don't worry about it.
 
 48% (729) Keep trying to find out what's wrong... there's something there.
 
 7% (120) If sex makes him so angry, stop having sex. That should make him happy, right?
 
 5% (78) You're totally doing something wrong in bed.

A reader writes... Q: I met a great guy online who’s really into me. We’ve gone out a few times but I can’t get over the feeling that he’s gay. He holds my hands and kisses me and stuff, but it’s little things that bug me. Like for instance, the way he walks. He also does things that don’t seem all that masculine. The other day I asked him point-blank if he was gay and he said no. I’m still not convinced. Should I hang in there and get to know him better or move on?
POLL: Should she hang in there?
 
 9% (147) Nope. Trust your gaydar.
 
 30% (491) Maybe. But keep an eye on him.
 
 60% (990) A boyfriend who likes to shop?! What's not to love?
