[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Things to try:

-Initiate at times other than right before bed.  If you watch TV for hours and then wait to initiate until she's a few minutes away from going to sleep, you up your chances of being turned down bc she is in sleep mode.  Try the morning or right after kids go to bed.

-Non-hormonal birth control.  Condoms, copper IUD, or a vasectomy for you

-Non-intercourse sex options.  Consider whether she might be more receptive to oral, mutual masturbation, etc.  Sometimes PIV seems daunting bc of the time it takes for women to get warmed up physically enough to enjoy it, but oral/manual is something she can just jump into if she is not feeling up to intercourse.

-Mixing up the foreplay, e.g. watching porn together, reading to each other out of 50 shades, whatever you think she might be into

These are all things that have helped to increase the frequency of sex in my marriage.  If none of these works maybe the other posters are right and the only option is to resign yourself to no sex or divorce, but at least give these a try[/quote]

PP here.  Forgot to add: try experimenting w/ lube in case dryness/discomfort is a source of her reluctance.[/quote]
