Weird Emotions...
Hey ladies,
I usually hang out over on the Destination Wedding board, since my fiance and I are currently planning our wedding for January 2014 in Mexico!
Here's the story... my fiance works away from home as a truck driver. We're both young, fit and very sexually attracted to eachother. When he's away we send photos, talk about our fantasies, all to help the other satisfy themselves when we're apart.
When he comes home, he immediately wants sex. Which I can understand because we've now been talking about it for a week, and I want it too. I just get these weird emotions bubbling up. It's like I'm so lonely when he's not there, that when he is there it's overwhelming and distracting. I can't get my head in the proper mode to really get into the sex the way I do when we're together more frequently or for a longer period of time.
He's obviously not forcing me to have sex with him when he gets home, I want sex too. Just wondering how to get myself into that mind set and not feel too emotionally overwhelmed to have good, satisfying sex.
Hopefully that wasn't too much rambling!

I understand totally where you're coming from. My husband is also a driver and is gone 3-6 weeks at a time. I don't handle quick change well and need a bit of an adjustment period.
His most recent home time was that he delivered early this
