Not the PP you are responding to but like, this entire exchange is stupid. I like sex but can think of scenarios where I would not be into it and if my DH threw a tantrum about it I would feel like he should stop whining and go take care of it himself. You can not want to have sex for a given period of time AND still like sex. Humans are complicated, which is why these conversations are so annoying and reductive. You make it JUST about sex when its almost always about more than sex.

[b]I continually wonder how you people would respond if you were paralyzed or something but your low libido spouse stood by you and loved and cared for you even though sex was no longer part of the equation. [/b]Or how you would handle it if it was reversed and they physically were just unable to provide that to you. Would you walk away because they couldn't put out enough?[/quote][/quote]

I would recognize that sexual fulfillment is an essential part of life, and if I were no longer physically capable of providing sexual touch to my spouse I would freely grant my spouse permission to get it elsewhere.  I wouldn't be so cruel as to make my spouse choose between celibacy and continuing marriage to me.[/quote]

Whereas I think I'd find it bearable if my wife couldn't have sex. The difference between "can't" and "won't" is the rejection. The former is not a rejection by the person who is supposed to love you best in the world.  The latter is. [/quote]
