hello Maria!

Have a heart to heart talk with your husband,many relationship fail because of lack of communication and intimacy.

It is human nature to want to feel wanted and feel loved.

Let him know how you really feel before it becomes resentment, miscommunication can lead to misunderstanding.

I have spoken to my grandmother a few days ago i ask her what was there secret of a happy marriage she told me just one thing "Listen" when your partner is talking to you and vice versa.

Good luck on your volunteer work and remember you are not alone if you still feel the same seek counseling it helps.

Take care

i do try to talk to him openly but i think my husband has a hard time to express his feelings. unlike me i am vocal of what i feel, my husband just tends to nod along in agreement. i do agree with you about communication and intimacy, we do not have both. i talk he nods thats it. we are no longer intimate, i think that we are just in it for companionship.

I think you should give each other hugs, they're therapeutical and it greatly boost moods. Also say "I love you" more, don't let it become just a routine. Find new, exciting, or even funny ways to spout your love for your husband. Try slipping a note in his pocket or wallet, tracing it in the bathroom mirror after a hot shower, or even just whispering it to him first thing in the morning!
I also read somewhere that you should initiate some passionate kisses, it might be ackward at first but what better way to rekindle your relationship than being intimate. You should also try dressing sexy specially when you're husband is around
