Lack of intimacy: living in a sexless marriage... unfortunately too common. Physical intimacy being an indispensable element in a relationship, marriage without sex can pose threat to a relationship. And also, the non physical intimacy, equally important and needed.

There are marriages which survive without sex, intimacy, and romance, however, but these are the attributes that set the relationship between a husband and a wife apart from all other familiar ties.... and the term "Room mates" comes on stage.

A lack of intimacy in marriage for men can be a major source of anxiety and frustration. Sometimes a lack of sex will trigger a man’s insecurities and in the long-run, can have damaging effects on his self-confidence, my humble opinion...

On the other hand, a lack of intimacy in marriage for women can be just as damaging– however, not always in the same way. And here´s the point I wanted to arrive to: the different and many ways those women react to their lack of intimacy (I´m in the group).

Open cheating, hidden cheating, friends with benefits, outsourcing among close/best friends, online resources...so many really....

I have decided on mine of course, which I have no special interest in "advertising" here, my friends know about it and I´m in no way saying it´s the best...it´s mine. It has to do with the way I think, feel, need to live...

Anyway, just an unimportant rambling...

My ex husband used intamacy as control. Wanted it when he wanted, withholding when he saw fit. Eventually I grew tired of the game. I cut out all intamacy completely for many reasons.
