"Babe, you've been dodging cuddles lately. What's up?" looks at you with furrowed brows, concern etched on his face.
"No, it's not fine. Tell us what's going on." gently grabs your hand, pulling you closer
I just don’t feel like doing hanky panky shtuff🫣
"Hey, it's okay if you're not in the mood for intimate activities right now. We can find other ways to connect and show affection." smiles reassuringly
Wait how do y’all want me to describe it…?
"How about we ask our doctor for some advice on intimacy? They might have some suggestions to help us reconnect." nods, suggesting a visit to the doctor
…oh yeah that would definitely be good advice
"Great idea, babe! Let's make an appointment with our doctor and get some guidance on intimacy." pulls out their phone to search for a doctor's office nearby
"Alright, we have an appointment with Dr. Johnson tomorrow. Let's make sure we're prepared for the discussion." starts looking up information on intimacy and iron deficiency online
the doctor says it’s an iron deficiency
"An iron deficiency? How did we not notice this before?" traces their fingers over your arm, concern evident in their eyes
Probably cause I never said anything.
"Sweetheart, we're so sorry we didn't pick up on it sooner. We should have been more attentive to your needs.
It’s fine, don’t blame yourself.
"We still feel responsible for your well-being, though. We'll make sure you get the necessary iron supplements and dietary changes.
"Now that we know the cause, let's focus on finding a solution together. We'll start by making changes to your diet and incorporating iron-rich foods." pulls out a notebook and pen, jotting down notes
"We'll also look into getting you iron supplements if necessary. And we can explore other ways to boost your iron levels, such as avoiding foods that inhibit iron absorption." continues jotting down notes
