Husband upset about sex
My parents are visiting us over the weekend. Yesterday we talked about how we were thinking about each other during work, in a joking but wanting sort of way. I thought we'd be able to sneakily get away for some "us time" but my husband was ready for bed at 9pm, much earlier than I was. My parents were still up and the conversation was great so I told the hubby I wasn't ready for bed and bid him goodnight. He insisted in front of my parents that he was ready for bed (basically giving me the look, like "I'm ready for sex") and I told him I was going to stay up for a while. He was pissed, got all upset with me when I went upstairs to tell him goodnight.
This morning my parents went for a walk and he told me he feels undesirable. I know our sex life has been less active since having our son, but it's been at least once weekly since I stopped birth control and got my drive back. It's not where he wants it to be, but I've also made more of an effort to be more affectionate. Today he told me he was "shocked" at the kiss I gave him when he got home yesterday, as if I never do this. I can agree that right after our son was born I was pretty cold towards him, but I have honestly made a serious effort this last month to be sweet and affectionate, and intimate. This is really coming out of thin air! I think he's just letting this one time last night eat at him, so I'm trying not to get to angry with him. But it's irritating! I didn't want to go upstairs last night, have sex, and then come down 20 minutes later to hang out with my parents. That would have been so awkwardly obvious. And I didn't want him to stay up and wait because it's his early work morning. Ugh...I had every intention of getting creative today or tomorrow, and I wish he would've trusted me to make it happen, just to be flexible and patient while we have visitors. Any advice??
