I am very specific with him.. I’m a very good communicator.. but he just brushes my questions off or just says he’s tired or that he’s a grown man, he doesn’t feel the need to kiss anymore or hug me.. he says he’s changed, that he’s a grown ass man now and when we got married he was young

I’m a grown ass women that needs a grown man to hold me tight and kiss me. Are you the man that’s going to do it? I’m a grown women with grown woman needs. Be a grown man and honor your responsibilities to me. What are your needs and I’ll do likewise.

Sounds like he has some ideals that root in toxic masculinity and the belief that as a grown man he doesn't need physical comfort anymore. Might be that he's hurting or withholding as well but sadly that doesn't mean he will change his attitude or opinions. I'd recommend to think of yourself first and if you don't get what you need, don't bet that he will change, get out. You're still young and don't deserve to be this empty.
