[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear OP, I speak as someone in a sexless marriage and not leaving it either.  No, it is b.s. to say you will eventually cheat.  What kind of crackpot therapist says that?  Since I may be only one on here in a functional sexless marriage, feel free to ask questions.  But generally speaking, it does sound like you are not helping your situation with your approach,  but hurting it.  Start focusing more on how it is all functional and tone down the accusations and uptightness and chronic disapproval and dissappointment (both turnoffs for men by the way).  The fact that you look good is NOT a turn on.  A turn on for him is not about pulling away or threatening to pull away, or threatening to mess things up with kids in the picture.  You need to step back from the appearances and consider who are you coming across as.  Enough said for now, good luck, here if you have a q.[/quote]

No, you're not the only one.  I am also in a functional sexless marriage.  DW and I have been together for years and had a great sex life.  But having a child killed DW's libido.  At first I hated it and DW kept saying we'd start up again.  But it's been 10 years now.  I'm definitely not recommending staying in your marriage.  It's just that it works for some people.  I'd certainly leave if I were younger but I'm older and not in great health anymore.  In all other ways, DW and I have a great marriage.  As far as the lack of sex is concerned.  I'm so used to it that it has ceased to bother me.  But I would not say people should live like this as a general rule.[/quote]
