Hello all, I have previously posted and got some amazing advice re leaving my husband and poo relationship. I applied for divorce back in July, decree nisi progressing nicely.
As I had been miserable for a considerable length of time in marriage, friends urged me to trip online dating. have been on 2 dates with 2 nice men but no spark. l have now met a 3rd man who is lovely - flowers on first date etc, texts all the time, very considerate etc.
He is very open about the fact that he is affectionate which doesn't bother me perse, only problem is my husband and I only had sex once in 6 years, last time being 4 years ago, no kissing, cuddling etc at all. This was his choice not mine and something that made me v unhappy, self esteem etc. On recent 2nd date new man kissed me on the lips about 5 separate times, hugged me, hand round waist etc and each time I just froze because 1. I didn't know what to do, 2. not used to this at all and possibly 3, weird because he's not my husband (don't want to get back with him, just habit of him if you know what I mean?!)
Really don't want him to think I am not interested in him but how do I broach the subject of how I don't really know what to do, so out of practice it is untrue! or do I not mention it at all?
