start by insisting on taking care of the kids while she has a shower and relaxes...then after the little ones are in bed give her a nice long relaxing massage...then comes the foreplay and then she's awake!

1:  evaluate your relationship, you could both just be tired.\n2:  get a babysitter and go on a Date!  A real date, get dressed up, go to a movie, have a nice dinner, do something romantic and try to be sure the evening is dedicated just to yourselves.  Make-out....  you don't have to have \n  s-e-x   if neither of you is up to it.\n3:  excercising can raise your endorphines, help you feel better, less tired, healthier and better about yourself- he should excercise as well- you guys have children's futures to look forward to- so stay healthy..\n4:   talk to one another- go for a twenty minute walk or do some simple gardening together-  you need to reconnect with one another as man and woman not just -husband/wife or mommy/daddy-   your grown ups Say what's on Your mind- you may actually find something out about eachother that you don't already know.  If possible try to talk about Happy things .\n5:  find a place where you can get a massage together, the rushing blood will make you both feel invigorated-\n6:  is you feel very bad, and aren't opening up I would consider talking to a doctor or a counselor -\n7:  Turn off the TV and do something together!  Turn on the radio and play some songs you both grew up too, remember the good old days... \n\nGood Luck...

oh man i feel sorry for you. i think she is stressed out about something. do you pay attention to her? take her out, just the two of you, somewhere romantic. do more things together. talk to eachother at night before falling asleep. dont let this go on forever. if you dont talk to her then she will think everything is okay and will continue.\noh gosh. i feel horrible. when i get stressed out and really tired at night, i become really mean. and its not that its directed towards my husband. i just cant deal with doing stuff when im tired. i get really angree about anything. i wish i can stop. im working on it. i told my husband that he needs to tell me to stop when it gets out of control.\ni think its hormone too. your wife might be doing this becus of her lady hormones.\nthe best thing to do is sit down and talk to her about this situation. dont let her continue like this. be supportive of her and tell her you will help her. if she gets upset becus you want to help her, that is just normal rejection. continue to be supportive.

Clean.\nRe-arrange the crib.\nVideo Games.\nBooty Call.\nTry a new and dificult food to make.\n\nThe best advice I could give you is work out. It doesn't even have to be any thing great. If you find yourself vegging out watching TV on a rainy day, try doing excercises during the commercials. Exercises like crunches, leg raises, side leg lifts, squats, lunges, arm rotations, and push ups are good to do for this. \n\nOr you could go to the closest store pick up a 12 pack of Corona and sit down and answer easy questions for a couple hours.

You have answered your own questions above.\n1. you no longer love your wife.\n2. you have been neglected.\n3. your marital relations leave you sleeping alone.\n4. you have started another relationship -although platonic for now, with someone else.\n5. all you need is some guts to tell her the truth and be done with it, why drag it out-not helping you or her.\nHer gambling is HER PROBLEM, not yours, remember that.\ngood luck.

I think a day of pampering is the best.  Like a day at the spa.  Or, you could get the couples package where you go, get massages, eat dinner in your robe, then go and get a pedicure before retiring to the suite you rented for the night with a bottle of wine and candles.  Then you can end the night right and before she falls asleep she will be in heaven.

a nice Massage!!! if she is a working woman she will appreciate the royal treatment!!! send her roses to work, makes us feel special. COOK her dinner, nothing says "you are my special love" then a dinner made with blood sweat and tears. and then that night, massage her into a deep sleep. dont press sex either. ask her if she wants to. if she does, make love!!! no f*cking tonite. if she doesnt say something to the effect of "its perfectly fine. let me rub your feet, it will be better than sex" makes me dreamy just thinking about it, ps. im married too

TELL HIM HE LOOK SO TIRED AND INVITE HIM TO REST AND TAKE A GOOD SHOWER SO THAT HIS TIREDNESS PASS AWAY

Don’t watch TV or even so much as look at a computer screen atleast 30 minutes before you lie down. The light from both a television as well as a computer monitor mimic the same intensity of light as sunlight. This fools your body and brain into thinking it’s nowhere near time for sleep.\n\nDrink milk. Milk has an amino acid in it called Tryptophan that increase the levels of serotonin and/or melatonin in the brain which slow down brain activity. It’s science folks.\n\nGo to bed when you are tired. Different strokes for different folks here. Just because your wife goes to bed at 9PM doesn’t mean you are ready. You might only require seven and half hours of sleep while she might require ten. If you aren’t tired, do something low-key until you are, like read a book, play solitaire (NOT on your computer), or play with some legos.\n\nReserve the bed for bed things (ie sleep and sex). I for one don’t strictly follow this rule as I’ll read some before I go to sleep, but for some people this is a must.\n\nMeditate. No, don’t cross your legs and hum, but focus on relaxing…if that makes sense. Take deep, long breaths. Tense each muscle one at a time from head to toe. Focusing on doing this takes your mind off of other things and you’ll be in lala land in no time.\n\nExcercise during the day. I emphasize during the day. Excercising at night just gets everything going instead of shutting down for sleep. But excercising during the day tires the muscles out and makes for a solid nights sleep.\n\nThese are the majority of the things I have either tried or actually do routinely. What are some things that have worked for you?

Wow...my husband could have wrote this...\n\nI have been married seven years (have two children ages 6 and 2) and have become separated (haven't filed for divorce yet)...for me the sex was always bad (and I do love it...which is something he would never believe).  I will say you do a lot more than he ever did but it doesn't sound like you guys are going down the right path...you are not doing anything wrong, it is her.  I know you love her but you have to stop most of the things (the dates, flowers, etc...) they are just a waste right now...she is a full time housewife so the fact that she is not even cleaning etc... sound to me she might be depressed (how is she with the kids)...she sounds like me almost 100% (I should mention that I work FULL TIME...always did since my kids were 3 months old both) but instead of watching tv till 1am I would rather play poker or be on the computer (which pisses him off)...for him I am always tired he says, but when it comes to other people or things he says I have energy...which I guess is true.  \n\nYou're gonna have to sit her down and have a really good talk with her or go for some marriage counseling before it is too late...\n\nE-mail me if you want to talk...

Make up some coupons saying that you would help her around the house.  Unless you have a maid!!!  Or for a nice massage; shoulders, nice foot massage.  Its worth a try.

As you're searching your neighbor's car for beer money to replace the 1.13 that your baby ate, "accidently" press the gas and just give your wife a little nudge...not pedal to the medal fast, but just hard enough to make her fall down and bang her head and knock her out. Drag her up to bed and poof a night all to yourself. Just make sure you bring her home some ice to help with the concussion in the morning.

Find another woman to sleep with and fast.  Before you know it you'll forget all about old: 'what's her name'.  And when you're not obsessed with her she'll be the one squirming.  It worked for me like a charm.
