[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not sexless. That is defined as no sex for 10 months or longer. I had a sexless marriage: literally nothing for 7 out of 10 years. [/quote]

Incorrect.

Marriage counselors define a sexless marriage as “fewer than 11 instances of coitus over one year.”[/quote]

LOL, if that's the case my spouse and I haven't had sex in over ten years.  Yeah, you read that right.  We're basically roommates raising our kids.  That's it.  We still sleep in the same bed, but we both have separate covers because one is cold and one is hot at night.  But, yeah it's been ten years since we had sex and I'm not exaggerating because the last time we had sex was when we had our last kid who is ten.[/quote]

Ten years….same bed….no sex….really? One or both of you must be getting it elsewhere. [/quote]

I don't think that's necessarily true. I house share with my lifelong friend and her husband and kid, and they have a situation exactly as described above. Sometimes two people who are both low libido find each other, want to parent together, and fit together nicely enough that they can model a healthy marriage to their child(ren) despite having no sex life. My friends are affectionate with one another, they are best friends who share all the same geeky interests and have imparted them on their kid, they have a nice little family with from the outside looks fairly enviable. He sits on his bottom too much while letting her do most of the housework and life management, but that's typical of many American marriages. My friend is a great mother and gets to enjoy her child with a roommate/bestie/dad who does a pretty good job of being an involved, caring dad. Nobody is cheating. [/quote]
