You and Trump would get along well. He can grab you by the pu$$y and you can grab him by the ball$ and both can make threats about sex or else. What a delightful relationship. |
Only you can decide what your priorities and opportunities are but you may find out that your assessment was incorrect. If you are ready to deal with the consequences, it would be easier to make a decision. |
According to Pew Research (2019) Marriage and Cohabitation in the US report - approx 35% of individuals who are married are satisfied sexually in their marriage.
But still a higher % than those who are single. Lowest satisfaction is in the mid 30s to mid 40s age group and lower in men than women (but not by a lot). |
Well the sexual problems were just a symptom of much worse problems. The emotional affair definitely functioned like an exit affair, and in the beginning of counseling I was basically staying because divorce would create a lot of disruption to my otherwise pleasant life. But things are a lot better now. |
Wow, imagine if the genders were reversed. "Don't ask, just turn her over and put it in." Men deserve consent too! |
Salty much? Oh, you’re of the participation trophy generation. Bet you get your feelings hurt at the drop of a hat. Bet you cry when someone calls you to the carpet. Bet you whine when you don’t get your way. How’s your portfolio doing with Sleepy Joe in charge? STFU |
Are you drunk or just always incoherent? |
There is big difference between "mutual" and "perfection" - it seems that OP is describing that her sex life is not mutual ... DH is getting what he wants and she isn't. She hasn't provided us with background on if he has explained WHY he is ignoring her / saying no. But it seems like a power play / laziness / disregard based on what has been posted. |
NP. OP is far from being alone in this situation. Hope your situation resolves itself for the better, OP. |
My sex Life is good but not great but the rest of my marriage is really all I could hope for. Requiring “great” in all parts of a marriage is not going to happen. Plenty of marriages fall apart even when the sex is great. My divorced sister still has periodic sex with her ex because that’s all he was good for. |
This is a little off thread but I remember being at a 3-4 day touchy feely seminar many years ago. One of the guys in my group, none of whom I knew beforehand, went on about the great marriage he had. The last night after dinner he said to me, I swear, “I’m the guy who could give you great pleasure.” Somehow I was smart enough to say “Sorry, but you look nothing like my husband”. So here’s a butt hole who goes on about his great marriage and then wants to have sex with someone else. Later that night when I told my husband the story he howled at my brilliant response and then he said “ did you mean it?” |
Sure - but for many, sexual fidelity is literally part of the marital contract. So if it’s so unimportant, why do we care about our spouses having sex with other people? It’s not like OP is asking her husband to take up tennis or knitting. |
it's the '20s... men are becoming much less sexual. |
You're married to Mr. Roper and you're Helen. |
No marriage is perfect OP. My DH is a great provider and decent father and all I can handle in bed. He's emotionally a cyborg though. |
