How many women would be fine to never have sex with DH if it didn't bother them?

Gross.

No. We have sex almost everyday. I have a very high sex drive and love sex. I can’t understand why any one wouldn’t want sex with someone they love. Sex feels great!

This thread is so sad.

NP, trying to get the visual out of my head of senior citizens "pounding mattress"

I could not imagine tossing my H aside if he did not want sex.

Love is not sex.

It can be a way of expressing love. I think your statement is way too general. You can have love without sex or sex without love. You can't generalize about the relationship between the two.

No it’s not. It’s a way to satisfy a physical pleasure. It’s not love.

It can be purely about physical pleasure, but it can also be a powerful way of expressing love. Not the only way to express love, of course, but a powerful way.

I don't know why that's controversial.

Yes! I’d be totally fine- like many others have commented I don’t need/want sex at all. Probably because it’s very physically painful for me.

Yes I was thinking the same thing. Never, nah, but a couple times a year heck yes.

It’s one way.., not the only way, why is that controversial.

So if he wanted it 1x per month you would leave him?

If there came a time when she didn't want sex, she wouldn't do it anyway "for the sake of our marriage," or to not break my heart. She just wouldn't do it and I'd move on to the next. If there is one thing I've learned from this board, if you don't want to get stuck in sexless marriage, don't get married. You have all scared me straight and I thank you for that.

Same here brother!

My DH is in sexless marriage and we are not even married. I wished he'd move on to the next. I wish he'd offer to help me move out. I wish he'd suggest I'd move out. If I do it, I'm the bad person. I wish we'd said it at the same time.
I never want to have sex again. Well, maybe 10 years from now.

When did I say it was the only way? PPs have said "It's a way to satisfy physical pleasure. It's not love." That's simply untrue.

It’s very true. It’s not love. It’s a way to physically enjoy each other... just like a massage, or drinking champagne or enjoying a dance.... it’s not love:

Its not necessary for love.
