Based on his limited post history, I agree. However, I think he is completely content with his life

Yes. About once a month before we were married. Birth control wrecked her hormones... After she got off birth control is when it trickled to a stop. I had no idea that wasn't normal. Almost every man I talked to told me the same thing, welcome to marriage. So I just let it go.



You thought not having sex in your late 20s-30s was normal? You’ve got to be a troll

If I tried to get away with less than 6x a week, she would want to go to counseling to fix it. It's currently at 4-5x a day four times a week.


What’s she taking? Seriously. Please tell.

He's FOS.

I'm a record-setter and 4x-5x a day is BS.

Unless you're a bunny.

I was about to call you a liar but you do mostly start threads asking which movie is better or rating some hot famous lady

they call you a troll, but you are a man of the people. Thank you for giving me ammo to show my wife we should do this at least more than 1x/week.

Again, didn't know. Had no idea. All the data I had, I used. I figured once a week was a LOT. Once a month, meh, at the time we were both working and stressed out, meh, whatever.

And, not a troll. I just don't say much. I just chimed in to let OP know he wasn't alone. There's more of us out here, quietly getting on with what life we have.

Seriously you need a mental health provider, a potential sex therapist, a doctor to check your hormone levels etc. This is a multifaceted problem.


I'll get right on that soon as I win the lottery. There's no money for any of that. And it still won't bring back the years I lost.

quote:

So you don’t have sex, you hate the gym so you don’t take care of your body, you don’t have any money, and you think it’s pointless to be on TRT? No wonder you’re depressed. Btw the whole you lived your life in service is bullshite, that’s a cop out you tell yourself to feel better about where you are in life.


I'm thankful, seriously, that you don't think you have to take care of your parents when they get old. That you can just pay someone, and go on with your life. I wish I could have been that callous. That's not me.

I could be smaller, yes, But I do manage 100 miles a week on a bike, my vitals are all normal, Cholesterol is usually under a hundred.

Even if I DID do all that, that's still not solving the problem at home. I made a promise to her, and she to me, and I don't think getting divorced over sex is going to make my life demonstrably better by any measure.

I’ve never understood this trope. Are some of yall really in sexless marriages? That must suck

Yes, I’ve known women who just don’t like sex for whatever reason. They wouldn’t be married to me very long though. You don’t want to have sex you are telling me you no longer want to be married to me. Simple

Told the wife about this thread with men saying they hadn’t had sex with their wife in years, her comment “not even a blow job?”

God bless that woman. Shes a keeper.

Just found out recently that a friend hasn’t had sex with their spouse but a handful of times in 15 years. The only time it existed for more than a couple times was to conceive a child. Since that child was born almost 10 years ago, sex can be counted on one hand. Blows my mind.

That’s just what he does. He counts on one hand either left or right, lol

You sacrificed your life to be a caregiver, why do you think you’re so noble for doing so? And yet here you are 55 and have no desire to improve life, you just mope around feeling sorry for yourself. fricking pathetic.

You aren’t dead, change your life

I haven't read the entire thread - only made it so far to halfway down page 1, but I can tell you that if he is married, it's certainly possible, if not even probable.

Contempt, resentment, anger, lack of communication, avoidance -- you name it -- all can play large part in a sexless marriage.

It's more common than you think.

Hell, if you're that hard up, get a passport and go to Thailand or The Philippines.

Successful marriages only occur when both the husbsnd and wife are happy and fulfilled.

A healthy sex life is a huge part of that especially for men, and many times, for women as well.

Wives understand this; men aren't complicated.

I'll never understand a marriage that lacks physical intimacy, and staying married for the kids or for financial reasons wouldn't be enough for me.
