Returning to Affection
First time posting here. I am a WS and betrayed my beautiful loving husband for seemingly no reason (other than 1,000 of my OWN reasons). I am doing it ALL and we are working hard. It was an 8 week affair, and DD was on July 1st. It's been rocky for sure, but we are still here....working hard! And I am so grateful for that.
My question is this: How do I get back to physical affection (NOT SEX) I'm talking hand holding, hugs (man I REALLY miss just being held by him!) Our sex life has increased and is AMAZING, so yes there is affection in that area...but I'm just talking normal daily affection. He does kiss me (lightly) before he leaves for work, but that's about the extent of it.
I don't want to ask for it or press him to do any of it, but I feel like if I let it go for too long he just won't want to do that at all eventually. And we were a VERY affectionate couple prior to this terrible betrayal!!
Any advice on what I can do would be greatly appreciated.
