[quote=Anonymous][quote][/quote]Are we just completely incompatible as a couple?

I can't live the rest of my life this way.

If you can't live the rest of your life this way then yes, you are completely incompatible.

I would suggest giving it 6 months in couples counseling where you see if you can figure out what it is but honestly if it didn't change or you didn't discover a real reason, then I'd leave the marriage. You're only 29 and you dont have kids. You're too young and free to settle for a sexless life.

question: how was it before marriage? Once a week is not a lot for childless couples at the start /early stages of a romance. DH and I are now at once a week, but we are a decade into marriage with 2 kids and we're middle aged. We probably had sex most nights we were together when dating.

I was in a relationship for a couple years that became sexless, more or less, once we moved in together and there the sex was never that frequent. It was truly a terrible thing for both of us--I ultimately broke up with him for a variety of reasons, but the main one was the lack of physical intimacy, which in his case reflected a deeper issue with intimacy. he never did get married to anyone else. I dont know in the end what the issue was with sex, but it frankly didn't matter. I couldn't be happy without the physical expression of intimacy and pleasure.

A friend of mine got married in her mid 20s, the sex dropped off precipitiously. Ultimately her "dh" told her he was no longer attracted to her (nothing had changed!). they divorced 6 years in. He came out a few years later. She is with someone else and is very, very happy.
