[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We haven't sex since 2019 and I'm still here.[/quote]

This is unfathomable to me.  Could you both say a bit more about how this came to be?  Age?  Are you still attracted to your spouse?  Why stay together?[/quote]

I'm the poster with no sex since 2019. We're no longer attracted to each, and that's mutual.

I'm honestly confused why it's unfathomable. Sex is one aspect of a relationship. Outside of that our relationship is great. The love and support we get from being in the relationship is more important than the lack of sex. I'd rather spend the rest of my life celibate than spend without her. I understand why someone would make a different choice, but I'd most people could grasp the reasons you'd stay. [/quote]

Don’t feel like you have to defend your stance. The reality is you are in the norm.

Most people who are in loving committed relationship relationships do not throw it all away because sex isn’t good, often, existent.

Obviously, there’s people who put sex above family and love just like there’s people who put money above morality .[/quote]

The judgment from you two is unfortunate. For a LOT of people (speaking as a man, but it seems many women also) sex is a big part of the love and commitment. The degree to which people need sex varies and is individual, and it's pointless to judge one way or another.

Divorcing after years of rejection is not 'throwing it all away' or putting something frivolous 'above family'. Years of rejection is very painful to many.  [/quote]
