He Is Not The Man I Married

My husband and I have only been together for a little under a year and he is not the same man that I married. Ever since he came back from Afghanistan he has been distant and he hasn’t been the same as he was before he left. Before he couldn’t keep his hands off of me and now he never touches me and he doesn’t talk to me or say the sweet things like he used to. I question whether he still loves me or not every day. We use to make love almost everyday and now it is like once a week. I’m very confused on what to do. How can I make my husband act the way he did when we got married?
Your husband has been in a very intense and life altering situation. He’s not the same person he was. That doesn’t mean he thinks less of you. You both could use some counseling and hopefully create a new beginning. Have a talk with him about your needs and his feelings. There could be many reasons for his behavior. People change in relationships, even without an experience like Afghanistan. Until you get some answers you’ll never be able to address the problem.

a deployment can really adversely affect some people. what you can do about it is go to counseling, and give things time, it takes a while for someone to readjust from deployment. when i came back even riding on a bus odd and like i was doing it for the first time again. and after being alone for so long its very hard to adjust to having someone there again.
