Seems like women can be somewhat happy in a sexless marriage. Only one man has said he is sort of content and even they have sex occasionally.

Men with normal libidos can't sustain this. For most men their love language is touch. [/quote]

I’m a woman married to a man who never wants sex. We are in our 40s and have only been married a few years. It’s sad and pitiful and such a waste. He’s so attractive and we used to have an amazing sex life.

I used to try really hard to get him to have sex. Countless conversations about it. Would try to schedule it but then he would never follow through. He’s also not affectionate at all. I would have to ask for a hug. No playful touching or flirting. Chemistry completely gone.

So, last week, I made the decision to stop trying. No pecks on the cheek hello or goodbye. No mention of sex. No more asking for hugs, joking about sex, touching him. I’m 100% certain he didn’t even notice.

All this to say, women go through this too and it’s equally awful. [/quote]

Woman married to man. We had some issues in our marriage that led to me not wanting to have sex with him anymore. He was not interested in any touching or shows of affection, only straight up sex. We didn’t hug or kiss unless I went in for it. If he did that it meant he expected sex. He never complimented me and dismissed me on some big issues where in needed support. Sex became  less and less frequent. He ended up having an affair. We are in the midst of divorcing. He thinks I was content in a sexless marriage which wasn’t the case. It’s not always about different libidos. Sometimes there are issues in the relationship that cause you to lose your desire for sex. Can’t tell you how many times I wanted to have sex during this time [/quote]
