Sexless marriage
Its been 10 years since the last time we've had sex. I've finally grown numb and accepted it as the way it's always going to be.

ILIASM (I Live In A Sexless Marriage) was one of the biggest groups on EP. To summarize the collective experience of that group, the withholder is not going to change so the denied person can either live with it, outsource their needs or leave. I tried one and 2 before doing 3.

@Offthetop Was in the same group. People's comments made me realize a world that I did not know existed. I thought I was sick even contemplated asking the doc to inject me with anti-testosterone drugs. Because my then wife made me feel I was abnormal. Only to then get out and meet people who rowed the boat at my speed. Wow.

@darkknightt some say that life without sex opens them to spiritual understanding

Have you given a thought to seek counseling?
Intimacy is an integral part of a healthy marriage and if that important part is missing, then frustration is taking the upper hand. It should not be.
I do commend you on not having taken the path of cheating. It shows strength of character and not everyone does have it. I wish you well

@Browneyesarebest79 here I thought the fact the wife was barely interested in sex when we would have it every month or two was an issue

@3Dogmatic it is living without sex is all
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
sex does not define us. If you don't go to our hidden warehouses
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@JSmith75 sex is probably overrated anyway, right? Please say yes
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
@wudifu maybe a long lasting marriage is based on mutual exclusivity
Asianpersuasion · 36-40, M
@Ad4muk agree
Teslin · M
Your choice or your partner?
Teslin · M
@Browneyesarebest79 So sorry !!
Cheesecake · 61-69, M
@Teslin apparently if you're having it fewer than ten times a year it's classed as sexless. I'd take that, as a 100% improvement - but nowhere near what would make me happy.

How do you keep going in a relationship where you can’t get the fulfilment that you need?
deadgerbil · 26-30, M
What kind of marriage is that
Browneyesarebest79 · 46-50, F
@deadgerbil it's very common...
Freetime · 56-60, M
I'm sorry. I know what it's like to live this way.

It’s not an ideal situation

My boyfriend and I have talked about my keeping my virginity.
It's a choice some couples do make, but unless it's an agreed choice, it's really unfair.

@onewithshoes i really don't see the point
atlantic59 · 61-69, M
I'm into 5 years but it's mutual

At <=45.... I would walk, no matter what the finances looked like. Life is just too short ......
