I Live In a Sexless Marriage

Well, she found God.
In no way am I judging anyone who has been saved though the Lord, but this just takes the cake when related to our particular circumstances.
We once enjoyed the most amazing intimacy and sex life.
We have now had sex once in the past five years, and all levels of intimacy have left. There are no hugs or kisses, no holding hands and no cuddling on the sofa.
During all that time, my wife has steadfastly maintained a stubborn refusal to even discuss the issue, or to attend counselling either together or separately. No explanation has been given for the change despite my hundreds of attempts to discuss this with her.
Every single attempt by me to broach the subject has been shot down.
And then she found God.
I have to admit that at first I was truly hopeful that this may offer her some clarity and perhaps open her to either a frank discussion with me, or even find a counselor within her church with whom to discuss this.
Alas, no.
I again tried to discuss our circumstances with her, and during the conversation alluded to the fact that her new-found spiritual awakening may open the lines of communication between us, it did not go well.
Apparently, I am a heathen who has only sex on my mind and how dare I even presume to associate her new state of grace with the sinful act of sex.
*Sigh*
If I didn't believe that it would irrevocably damage our two adopted daughters I would be out of there so fast.

Thanks for 'listening', and end of rant.

Time to move on. You have only one life to live. If she does not even want to cuddle with you then what is the point of staying married?
