[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have come to believe that in typical marriages, meaning ones absent abuse, alcoholism, etc., fights don't lead to divorce. It's lack of sex. Which sounds ludicrous but it's really not. I have absolutely noticed that when sex is infrequent and sparse, my husband and I genuinely seem to like each other less. Tempers are shorter, things that are merely annoying seem massively problematic. When sex is regular, all of these things are mitigated. We are more forgiving, we are more closely connected.

It's when sex goes away that small issues mount up and seem impossible to work past. Most average, not abusive marriages that fall apart, I really do believe this, could have been saved had a regular sex life been maintained along the way. [/quote]

Symptom not a cause. You're saying that lack of sex causes the issues, I would argue the issues cause the lack of sex. But I agree fully that little sex is a very dangerous thing to accept in a marriage because everything IS harder and snipier and meaner when you don't have that physical intimacy.

At minimum they are more closely entwined then you imply. [/quote]
