[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel so triggered by these threads because my husband is the one who has withheld sex at various times in the marriage and I genuinely felt at times that he was using it as a bargaining chip.  Where are all these husbands who want sex all the time and how did I end up with this rare bird who doesn’t??!? It’s really not ok to withhold and I feel bad for any man who goes through that.  Even if you are not at your happiest, once you start you can get in the mood.[/quote]

You are not alone in this experience. My ex husband would withhold sex. It was absolute torture that I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Eventually, I couldn’t take it anymore and began an affair with a coworker. My only regret is that I didn’t divorce him immediately when this started instead of suffering for several years (and in my sexual prime). I am certain he did it for control and to abuse me. I sympathize wholeheartedly with men who complain about their wives withholding sex. It is highly manipulative and abusive.[/quote]

Same -- I ended up having an affair with a neighbor because I couldn't handle my wife's excuses over the years.[/quote]
