[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't have sex between 45 and 49. Shortly after my divorce I went through serious health issues that last years. The lack of sex and dating honestly didn't affect me at all. I am healthy now and dating again and I am having consistent sex. It just feels like where I left off.

I am not sure I understand OP's question. [b]Sex is important, but the lack of it isn't going to make you depressed or crazy or insane.[/b] [/quote]

I get extremely depressed if I don’t have regular sex. You stopped because of heath issues, right? I think it’s different if it’s that your body doesn’t want to because of health issues, vs you are in a relationship, very much want sex, keep getting rejected over and over, and you can’t go seek it elsewhere. That’s very depressing. [/quote]

I could’ve written this. Not having sex with DH affects every part of my life. The fact that his interest seems to have dropped off is devastating. The rejection is soul crushing. It doesn’t seem fair that this is the decision he gets to make unilaterally. But then again, this is just his personality.

However, in other areas, I can get what I need other ways. Like if I need emotional connection, I can get it from my friends(other women, not talking about EA). I feel so desperate and trapped because I can’t get sex anywhere else. Plus, I actually want my husband to want and desire me. At times, it makes me feel pathetic that he doesn’t, but he tricked me. Why did he marry me?  It all just doesn’t seem fair. I’m not a cheater, but sometimes I kind of wish I didn’t feel this way. [/quote]
