[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's due for a physical soon, so that would probably be a good opportunity to ask him to get his levels checked...assuming that can be done with a general blood test.

In terms of when this started, after we had children. So about ten years. I was always more interested and initiated, but there has been a big change from his level of interest. I do think he's generally just very content with limited sex. At times he'll become frustrated and say he misses the intimacy, but, in reality, he's not interested on a daily basis. I want to go to counseling but he refuses. He says the idea scares him... Then it means we have "problems."[/quote]

You do have marriage problems and he needs to understand that.  Before therapy, however, I would have him discuss with his doctor and possibly have his testosterone checked.  If that's ok then therapy would be the next logical step.  Assuming no medical issues, the possibilities of of "why" are numerous at this point, so therapy, especially if you can get him to be an honest and engaged participant, can help get to the bottom of it.  Again, he needs to understand that this is a serious issue and is eroding the marriage, just like other types of problems can, and that you love, desire, and value him and the marriage and want to address it before you get past the point of no return.[/quote]
