My husband was travelling so we decided to have a quick one before he leaves home. We have two kids. The first was out playing with his friends. He's ten. The second one was sleeping in his room.
We felt safe doing it without locking the door because it was going to be quick and also our young soldiers were out of sight. A minute into the action, our door flung open and our first child walked in calling my name. What pains me the most is the fact that I was holding a table. If we were doing it in bed it would been fine because that's the normal way.
Immediately he saw us, he shut the door and walked away. We both collapsed into the bed arguing who should go out first and talk to him. While arguing, my phone rang. It was a neighbour. She said, "I sent your son to call you for me but he came back to tell me you are busy. I'm wondering if he's telling the truth because he was morose."
We came out and had a round table discussion with him. We apologized to him and explained that we love each other so much that's why we would do such a thing. He didn't say a word or maintain eye contact.
My husband is gone and we are left alone. Truth be told, I've become shy around him. He's also not helping issues. He has lost his bubbly nature. He barely talks.
He keeps to himself these days. Is that normal?
How long will it take before things come back to normal between us?
