I'm not trying to be a dick her but between her not doing the things you mentioned or enjoying sex what purpose exactly does your wife serve? It does sound like she is depressed.

What were things like before the stress of "real" jobs, house issues/chores, kids etc.?? If her sex drive was normal or better then, I would recommend her to see her doctor about medications, possibly, that she can take to help.

Holy frick dude. Its time to have some conversations and possibly make some tough decisions.

I handled my situation much like Yellowfin: I'm having sex 2-3 times a week with you or someone else. We've been married 20 years this June and have two kids.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but is she on birth control? Some birth control meds can really kill a woman's sex drive. She should talk to her dr about changing. My wife got off of BC pills a few years ago, and we went from once a week or so to 3x weekly.

No, no birth control...she has that implant thing

Sometimes 1-2 times a week. Sometimes only about 3 per month. Those months are usually stressful, the stress being the cause of the reduction in sex. Said reduction increases the stress. It's a bad cycle, those months.

It was like this before the kids came along, maybe even less now that I think about it.

You need to sit down and have a serious discussion with your wife. Sex is an important part of a happy marriage. You can't help but feel more emotionally connected to your spouse when you are having sex with them on a regular basis.

Try spicing it up. She's probably bored if anything

Damn.... That's unfortunate man. I would still recommend her going to her Doc or OBGYN and seeing if there is any type of medication that she can start taking to increase sex drive or boost estrogen. That is of course, if she is willing. If she understands your frustrations and knows where you are at, I would hope she would be willing to try anything she can for Y'ALL.

I've honestly tried to have this convo in the past, several times...it ends with her saying she feels like we do it more than what I'm claiming(she's just not being honest with herself) or it ends with me just conceding because she's worked the conversation down an unrelated path.

Yes, you need to do this. Do not be pushy though. You may just need to get her to a doctor.

I'll bet the reality of her life is vastly different from the image she had in her mind.

No country club life. No summer house. No AuPair. Nothing but the grind of another day.

You'll probably stay for another three years before throwing in the towel, finding someone new and learning 3-8x/week is normal.

THIS. It is an essential part of any relationship, especially a marriage. If you haven't already, I would have a sit down discussion with her and lay out your issues and concerns. A counseling session may be beneficial for y'all also. There are couples sex counselors.

Sounds like she has been able to get her way too much too long. I'd quit all that and act like you want and see how she responds. Women like to be needed, makes them feel important and in control.

When I was married about once every 3-4 weeks.

Now that I'm divorced about 9-10 a week.
