Is A Sexless Marriage The End?
My marriage was on the verge of ending, I had tried everything - including apologizing for things which I didn't even know if I was guilty of.
The truth is, my husband and I hadn't had sex in over 18 months. Now I'm not going to put myself on a pedestal here because that's not going to help, what I will say is that I am an athletic person and have been told that I am very attractive.
The "very attractive" part was bothering me because when we first stopped sleeping together I wondered if the reason was because I wasn't attractive to him.
A sexless marriage can lead to divorce, this is mainly due to the lack of understanding and communication. Don't let this happen to you!

Sexless Marriage - Hard To Understand
Thousands and thousands of websites covering sexless marriages - I was completely overwhelmed and certainly not ready for some of the stories I read. Some couple had been in a sexless marriage for over 5 years, some people hadn't had sex with their partner's for over 10 years.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a shallow person who thinks that a marriage is based on sex, but when you're without it for any length of time a lot of things start to go through your mind.
Is he having an affair?
Am I ugly?
Has he turned gay? (May seem funny but it went through my mind)
Seriously, you'd be surprised about what goes through your mind - and it's all bad.
That's why I'm writing this
You see out of all the helpful sites I visited, one thing became quite apparent - there are many reasons that your partner may not feel like sex - and this doesn't automatically mean that they don't love you any more.
Family commitments
Work overload
Financial worries
Etc:-
But of course having a list of the reasons why, doesn't make it go away, some of the problems and reasons are deep routed into their brains. This basically means that at one point they had a reason for not having sex but a lot of the time this has triggered something else and they really don't feel like having sex (with anyone).
I hope all of this is still making sense !
So anyway - I eventually found help! Here
Don't worry - you don't need a degree in psychology to understand this because if you're like me you will take advantage of the e-mail consultation.

Sexless Marriage Statistics
Another survey in the Newsweek shows that most married couples have sex about once every week. By contrast, unmarried singles have sex up to three times a week!
About 20-25% of men and 30-50% of women complain about their lack of sex drive.
About 25% of Americans, mostly women, suffer from a condition called Hypoactive Sexual Desire (HSD) which is a condition in which the person feels a persistent lack of interest in sex.

That's something that shouldn't happen, if you choose to share your life with your significant other, always try to keep the love alive. A great way to do it is trying new things together, I've found that using sextoys can help you do that, don't be afraid to try together Posted October 02, 2008 |
