[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a husband who is in sexless marriage, but it’s because my wife is chronically ill.  I do a stressful job, 90 percent of childcare not covered by a nanny.   Nearly all chores that are not outsourced as well. I would be up for sex every day if it was possible.

The women on this board who throw their relationships away because they are “frazzled” deserve the divorces that are in their future. [/quote]

I am sorry you are going through this.

Yes, a lot of divorced are people who sabotage their relationships by withholding affection and sex. It's a power play and one that always backfires with cheating and divorce. But you don't realize your mistake until the damage is done[/quote]

I’m sorry you’re going through this, and some kudos from an internet stranger— having an ill spouse is not easy and often not well understood.

I am the poster who sleeps in on Saturday morning while my husband handles the housework and takes our daughter to her lessons.  I am not throwing away my sex life, my husband and I are making sure our sex life is enjoyable for both of us and making sure we continue to have a mutually enjoyable sex life, so I never turn into one of the women who just can’t stomach the idea of faking it one more time.  I do have an intense, 60 hour/week job,  but that isn’t relevant— what is relevant is what both parties need in order to make their ex life mutually fulfilling. For my husband that’s frequency. For me that’s enough rest.  We both get what we need.[/quote]
