So when my son (5m) was about 18 months old my husband (42M at the time) told me (25F at the time) he found my body unattractive since having out son. It wasn’t said in a mean way, we were discussing the lack of sex since have our boy and he was very vulnerable at the time. Since then we have talked about it at length, he apologised for saying it and I told him I would rather him always be honest with me over letting something come between us. Fast forward a few years, I have forgiven him but I can’t seem to move past it. I think about the comment every time sex comes up. I feel like I will never be attractive to anyone ever again.

I’m fairly fit so it’s not like I can lose a bunch of weight to help me feel better. My body hasn’t changed much since he made the comment. Sometimes he calls me sexy and I cringe every time. I don’t know how to get last it. I just want to feel desired again. How do I get past my husband calling me unattractive ?
