[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like you have it about right.

In my experience, sexless marriages where it is not mutual (and that certainly happens), or if it is not caused by medical issues (and the left in the cold partner is actually being a decent person and taking care of their ill spouse) the marriage usually ends.  It is not, and cannot be, a permanent end state.

The reduced enthusiasm for sex in my marriage coincided with her emotional and then physical affair with a colleague.  It is clear she lost the attraction to me first after ten years of marriage and kids, etc., then rekindled her sexual feelings for someone else.

I believe it is usually something like this that is happening.[/quote]

Disagree. Sexless marriages have been common for centuries, including 21st century.

True. Lack of role models, only TV ones. [/quote]

Yup, most marriages did not last as long because most people did not live well into their 70s, 80s, and 90s nevermind 40s and 50s.  Most people were way past having kids by the time they were in their 30s....  Yes, it's normal not to want/desire sex as we age.  Nature - once you are past reproductive age - does not require you to have sex.  You have done your biological imperative and are disposable at this point.[/quote]
